She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes; Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies. Byron

Wonderful record, unlike anything I’d heard before. Still a favorite - wish I could find their others from that period here in the US

MARC BOLAN ~ 16th May 1969 Unicorn album released. Final album with Steve Took - it's the epitome of Marc's early album era. Poetical, mystical ... often a surprise for fans who know Marc's songs first from T. Rex hits. Absolute gem. ⭐Full album: dailymotion.com/video/x23nu7... #marcbolan #TRex
