A wealth of artist has contributed their interpratations for AngelHeaded Hipster: The Songs of Marc Bolan and T.Rex. NicK Cave in particular went all out with his version Cosmic Dancer. Marc Almond trumpets heavy Teenage Dream is not half bad either. It was producer Hall Willner's last project before he died on April 7 this year. The album is available in various formats (2CD, 2LP, digital) here. Wait awhile it will turn up a lot cheaper as is the fate of most covers records.
