Like PBender said, great album and it doesn't have to be a good copy. Surface noise is your friend. Unless you dropped 50 bucks on a new 180 gram 'audiophile' copy. But, hey don't do that! Listen to folks who have been collecting records since before the internet (hello, discogs and RSD) made collecting records just another social commodity. These are out there by the frig-tons. You will find a decent copy for under 20, heck maybe even under 10! Give it time! -
A solid album from start to finish. Amazing craftsmanship in both songwriting and musicianship. It is a rarity when an album is this solid in every track. Marc Bolan got everything right on this release. For those that may think it is dated, well it is a perfect record of this moment in Rock ‘n Roll history.

Fantastic classic album. I have read that this era of T-Rex was suppose to be disposable pop, but that is hard to imagine. This is the perfect pop/rock album and there are no throw away songs. That is a rarity to have an entire album without a weakness. Each song is well crafted and well played. I would recommend to every fan of music that they check out a vinyl copy of Electric Warrior. It does not even have to be a good copy, I have a VG+ and a beat up one and both just jump off the record. Mark Bolan was so much more then just a trend of the times, his music, especially this record are timeless.
