T.Rex: Christmas Bop Single (1975)

Marc’s Mistletoe Boogie

"Marc's Christmas Bop" is an unreleased 7-inch single by T. Rex, catalogued as MARC 12, with several proposed release dates, though November 14, 1975, is considered the most likely. It was meant to be a limited Christmas release but never officially came out at the time. The A-side, "Christmas Bop," is a new, previously unheard holiday-themed track, while the B-side includes two of T. Rex’s major 1972 hits: "Telegram Sam" and "Metal Guru." Although shelved in 1975, the master tapes survived, and "Christmas Bop" later appeared on official posthumous compilations beginning in the 1990s. The complete intended vinyl single was also featured in the T. Rex – The 7" Singles Box Set released by Edsel Records on March 16, 2015. (DEMRECBOX005)
