T. Rex – The Slider

Fantastic pressing to own. The vocals are right up front with nice timber and overall transparency throughout. Seek out one of these white label promos and you may score a hot stamp

There is a rare UK variant where the sleeve is just black and white, as no red was added to the lettering. Only a few copies sneaked out and are now worth a pretty penny.

I was hoping for another Kevin Gray cut with the slider Ala` electric warrior.
The reviews are lackluster for sure.
Guess there's a reason it's 23.00 on Amazon.
Purchased one from Amazon.
Good clean lp.
SQ good.
No gate-fold but innersleve reprinted & included, decent hold over until MOFI or Rhino ups the anty.

Anybody else got a poster with this pressing? Mine has, and I'm struggling to find a reference for it.

I don’t agree with the speech of the peruvian reseller “recordsperu” based in Germany. I was looking for many promotional records and they are original vintage definitely, with fold-out covers made in limited editions for radio stations during the 70’s and 80’s. For this reason , they are very rare and very hard to find even in Peru. Cheers!

This pressing sounds really good, the bass is si loud and vocals has a nice presence. Even though my lp has light scratch, the mastering is so well done that we dont hear it!

This pressing is a monster and it really brings the album to life.

Unconfirmed promo cover, seems fake.
This item fits a pattern of suspicious photo sleeves coming out of Peru to lure collectors, all in similar printing styles, colouring and font choice, but yet supposedly to be issued by different Peruvian record labels. It simply doesnt add up.

I'm only lightly interested in T.Rex but can certainly appreciate this album. Side A gets off to a slow start, IMO, but all the good stuff is on Side B. Your basic early '70s glam rock sound, with some Kinks influence. Voice good. Guitar playing is basic, but overall these guys can rock it.

I found this reissue pressing to be quite good. vinyl a little noisy, but no real complaints. no issue with spindle hole here. it was just right.

3.5 stars. recommended.

I got this press but it has Marc Bolan's pic on the label.
