The Slider

Released 1972Rock
Classic

A glam peak of boogie hooks, home to 'Metal Guru' and 'Telegram Sam'. Sexy and beloved. A high point. Released in 1972, it's one of T. Rex's later high points.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
