Mickey Finn ) - Classic Hits: Celebration of Marc & Mickey

Collection of tracks from 2001, the final recordings by Mickey Finn, who put together a 'new' version of T. Rex in 1997, initially to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of Marc Bolan's untimely death. Half of the classic T. Rex duo, Mickey had joined during the Tyrannosaurus Rex-era and brought an early Rock 'N' Roll approach to the sound. Finn died in 2003, leaving only drummer Bill Legend as the only surviving member of the original quartet. A reformed version of T. Rex, featuring old and new members, continues to play all over Europe. Musicians for this session of classic T. Rex songs were Mickey Finn, Paul Fenton, Alan Silson, Rob Benson, Dave Major, Tony Allday and Graham Oliver. Angel Air. 2008.
