Marc Bolan (born Mark Feld; 30 September 1947 – 16 September 1977) was an English singer-songwriter, guitarist and poet. He is best known as the founder, frontman, lead singer & guitarist for T. Rex, but also a successful solo artist. His music, as well as his highly original sense of style and extraordinary stage presence, helped create the glam rock era which made him one of the most recognisable stars in British rock music

Vince chatted with #FrankIfield. In his Early years Frank Ifield moved with his Australian parents to Dural, 50 km (30 miles) from Sydney, about 1946. It was a rural district and he listened to #hillbilly music while milking the cows. He learned how to #yodel in imitation of country stars like Hank Snow. At the age of thirteen he recorded "Did You See My Daddy Over There?", and by the age of 19 was the number one recording star in #Australia and #New ealand. He returned to the UK in 1959. The hits His first record in the UK was "Lucky Devil" (1960) which got to number 22 in the UK charts. "I Remember You" which topped the charts for seven weeks in 1962. Known for Ifield's falsetto and a slight yodel, it became the top-selling single of that year and was one of the first million sellers within the UK alone.

His lightning-fast speed has earned him a reputation as the guitarist's guitarist - hardly surprising that readers of #GuitarPlayer magazine voted him "Best Country Guitarist" five years running.I was so chuffed to speak to Albert who is an absolute legend. Not only is he a wonderful guitarist but he is an absolute gentleman.
