The Venus Loon Left Too Soon written by James Stuart Maycock


with his crimson moon,
he made us swoon,
but the venus loon ,
he left us too soon.

with his cadilac,
and his Vampower stack,
we loved every move,
we loved every track.

his cascading curls,
were a momento for girls,
and his glittered face,
we still embrace.

he sang ''get it on '' ,
and he rode a white swan,
he was the King ,
and he could do no wrong.

the elemental child ,
was uniquely styled,
he was the Warlord ..........
of the royal crocodile.

the mambo sun,
was having such fun,
Slider ,Tanx, Zinc..........
and then Zip Gun .

but the genius Mark Feld,
was nearing his end,
and without any warning,
we had lost 'our' best friend.

i've always loved him,
and always been a fan,
of that beautiful, talented,
wonderful man.

The Elfin Face written by Stephen ‘Ace’ Luff





The Elfin face with stealth like grace
Raced above ground
At a tremendous pace

He gave us new worlds and words
With creatures we forgot about or never heard
Lead by a dinosaur that name was so long
DJ’s thought it absurd but were so wrong

The charts he was born
Where glam rock he would spawn
With Sam & main man
A new decade did dawn

Years went past and nice press never lasts
He go and reinvent these new sounds he would blast
Kids were all cruel
Cause most had left school
But real fans would stay by him
And again he would rule.

The Slider King grooved
Made the kids wanna move
With a kinda Dandy comeback
Sounded all way too cool

But while his show still on TV
And his tour doing well
The soul of his suit it was taken
Fans were put under a spell

Now many years later
His songs are still greater
Cause our beloved Marc
Was the true innovator

Marc never went away written by Ceri Wheeler




And as he left his body in and Archangel blazing light.
The Sun shone so strongly that the day became night and the night became day.
He simply wasn't mean't to stay too long.
Yet long enough to leave his beautiful song in plenitude.
Then I imagine him say.
"And in each song you'll find my heart, for in truth I never left you.
I never went away
I gave you these gifts so that I might stay.
Right here in your Pure Loving Hearts

Debora's Love written by Debora Peake (Bolanbabe)




These words, few words I have to say
In my little room I can get away
On my wall posters, discs guitar picks
of someone beloved we all do miss

I only wish you were still here for us
No more songs of love to hear
The ones you sang, Oh! in our hearts
'Ride A White Swan' and a 'Beard Of Stars'

The stars will shine for you our Marc
If we look up where you walk
we will see the arc

You were my teenage dream forever you will be
I have your jeans so dear to me
My life has been so full of joy
thanks to you our '20th Century Boy'

Your love and light will carry on
Our beautiful Marc
we still 'Get It On'

There's just one more thing I would like to say
KALMIYH - forever a daye laye

My Heart written by James Marshall Black





My heart, moved by the sound

the sound of the poet, the sound of the universe

the sound of magic, the sound of Marc.



My heart, broken by the loss

broken by the cost, the cost, the terrible cost

the cost cast one morning by the road, by the dark



My heart, touched by the devoted

touched by the feeling, the feeling of them all

touched by magic, still living, in all of their endless love, for Marc.

UNICORN written by Jaime Pitman


From high above
In lofty Skies
A mythical creature
Gracefully flies

Lashed up to a harness
Made up of pure silk
The splendid carved chariot
Made from same ilk

He waits by the Rapids
This Ill Starred Man
For his Tenement Lady
For as long as he can

This Pilgrims Tale
From the ancients was born
How their union was aided
By the blessed Unicorn

The Punkoid Moon & Love Lawn Loon – written by Stephen ‘Ace’ Luff





The punkoid moon shone on the love lawn loon
Sitting in the urgent galleon
The child star danced across the bashful sky
With a wisp of a demented stallion

The electric wind screams just above the ground
Shaking the mound with amazing rock sound
This they say tormented the crowd
And when the wind dies left them all proud

Bob the poet just didn’t know it
Sam said “hey this is about you”
But silly Bob turned the wrong knob
And thought he was metal guru.

While a unicorn came with a long trailing main
That blew in the air like falling rain
A sound of thunder like a rexual legend drummer
As it played all over the plain

The sun rise like some ancient mythical eye
Its beams shone like corkscrew hair that made you cry
Where is this land Debora asked as she did not want to be denied
It is not a place but a beautiful face

Marc Bolan forever in our embrace

Beautiful - written by Linda Wells (Laser Lady)


You made my life so beautiful
With every line from every song
Your face, your words, your lovely smile
You really were a man of style
Your music, songs and words all stay
Within my heart every single day
And though you’re gone, it’s sad but true
There is no getting over you
Your music plays within my head
Which means that you cannot be dead
And in my mind I play your songs
So you, my Wizard, still live on

Tyrannosaurus Rex - written by Jaime Pitman



From Tyrannosaurus Rex
Began Marc and Steve Took
The new underground group
With the peace and love look

Filled with ideas
great knowledge and passion
The mind forever casting
His creations and fashions

Then a slight name change
Like a magical hex
This two man band now
was four - and T. Rex

To see Marc in a room
Was wonderful amazing
Turning heads of both sexes
As crowds brewed hellraising

The piece de resistance
was to see them perform
Stamping a new generation
Feeling alive and reborn

So history was made
Of hot love and pure ecstasy
The headlines now spashing
The real meaning - T Rextasy!!!

The Weilder Of Words - Jaime Pitman


He's a legend and an icon
The ultimate weilder of words
Sublime electric warrior
with songs we hadn't heard

The groove of rhythmic beats
He set the scene for fun
Sensual bodies feeling the heat
The heat of the Mambo sun

Then the famous Slider
No-one could get enough
The night time cowboy rider
who magically struts his stuff

He's riding with such passion
Spurred on by words she sang
To hold his night angel
His Baby Boomerang

but these are just two favourites
amounst so many more
As these two classic albums
are like none we ever saw

But sadly there is an ending
with destiny showing it's hand
The Dandy in the Underworld
was the last for this great band
