Ummmm... love Marc Bolan, but...holy early 70s, Batman!, 22 November 2003
Author: (paintbrush_2003) from USA

After struggling for a few years to get a hold of this on video, I was left a little bit confused and disappointed. I love Marc Bolan, but this was a little much. Very disjointed and very much a piece of its time, I couldn't even bring myself to watch the whole thing again before selling it. If you are a big Bolan fan and get a chance to see this, be warned that you may be left scratching your head.
