Bang a Gong (Get it On) by T. Rex
Known in T. Rex's homeland simply as Get it On, but in the rest of the world by the longer title, this song is part of T. Rex' lasting legacy & stands as one of their best songs. Sandwiched right in the middle of one of Glam Rock's most important albums, Bang a Gong (Get it On) has so many great little nuances that make it one of Glam Rock's defining anthems: the piano glissando, the overdubbed humming, the ballsey sax riff, the sassy lead riff, short guitar & sax solos & an epic chorus with singer Marc Bolan being backed by some powerful female voices. MIND BLOWING.
