T.Rex: "Truck on, Zinc" Article (1974)

T.Rex’s "Truck on, Zinc", a one-page small article in Melody Maker, January 19, 1974.

We've telegrammed Sam, trucked on Tyke and now it's time to go ape with Alloy.

Zinc Alloy to be precise. Years ago when Marc Bolan was chatting to MM he uttered the immortal pronouncement: "If ever I get into the chart, I'm going to change my name to Zinc Alloy." Weil he's been in the chart a few times since then, and now the Great Hitmaker of the Seventies is about to launch his first tour in two years. Even cynics must admit, the likeable lad still has magic and charisma. Next week, Boley talks about Alloy, Zinc and all the heavy metal kids.
