Tramp King Of The City: Home Demos LP (12″ album, 33 rpm) Part of a series of four vinyl LPs of home demos, restored and remastered for vinyl this year (2018) from recently acquired materials returned to the estate. These embryonic recordings of songs, some of which would find their way on to the iconic ‘Slider’ album.. many did not and remained unreleased. Included here are recordings made in Tony Visconti’s flat in the autumn of 1971 and ‘Truck On’ was not released until the end of 1973. This version includes some additional vocals by Tony’s then wife Mary Hopkin. Limited to 750 copies world wide. Exclusively and uniquely designed to represent the correct period from which the material was recorded. Includes inner bag with full liner notes by Andrew J. Gardner of the Bolan Society. Taken directly from Marc’s own tapes (originally stolen from the home of Marc & Gloria and recently repatriated to Gloria and her charity The Light of Love Foundation) and the audio restored and mastered by Anders Peterson At Ghost Sound Sweden.
