Demon Music UK continues the releases of yearly vault tracks for T. Rex with an upcoming 4CD Box. Inside the Box will be Tanx (1973), and Zinc Alloy and The Hidden Riders of Tomorrow (1973). Included within the set will be collected singles, non-album singles, B-sides, demos, outtakes from sessions for these two albums, and an “abandoned” album that covers CD4.
The set will also contain a 44-page booklet with a brand new essay written for this release. There will be an impressive collection of photos from 1973 to help fill up the booklet with gold.
The Box will be called T. Rex 1973: Whatever Happened To The Teenage Dream? and will contain 82 tracks in all. If you’re a Tanx and/or Zinc Alloy era fan, then this set of collected bonuses will be a must. This box is scheduled for release on May 26.
