Marc Bolan died tragically in 1977, but has left a legacy of extravagant style and exuberant music. He single-handedly invented Glam Rock which has influenced pop music ever since. The song "Twentieth Century Boy" was recently revived for a Levi's advert, a "Best of" album followed and was a huge seller. This biography has been written with the co-operation of Bolan's family friends.
