MARC BOLAN'S 3 TRACK ACETATE OF T.REX'S RIDE A WHITE SWAN, JEWEL & SUMMERTIME BLUES. Marc's personal audiodisc acetate of Ride A White Swan with Jewel and Summertime Blues on the flip side. The track Jewel never went onto feature on the B-side and was instead replaced by "Is It Love". The labels have been handwritten by Marc and dated Sep.28 which we presume was 1970. Interestingly the title "Ride a Swan" has been crossed out by Marc and replaced with "Ride a White Swan". The acetate is in VG+ condition with some light marks and scuffs but nothing heavy or that affects play - it plays through very clearly and the sound quality is excellent. Provenance: Our vendor has been a prominent figure in the music industry from 1970 to the present day presenting music shows both on the radio and TV.
Sold for £2,200
