Captured at the peak of T. Rextasy, ‘Born To Boogie’ is the Ringo Starr-directed 1972 film of the Godfather of Glam, Marc Bolan on Blu-Ray for the first time. Featuring live versions of T. Rex’s greatest hits, recorded at their famous Wembley concerts, the film also includes a legendary jam session with T.Rex joined by Ringo Starr and Elton John, and a mad hatter’s tea party with Catweazle and (Bolan/Bowie producer) Tony Visconti. The package also features the full matinee show as well as several extra features in SD. With new annotation by Mark Paytress and previously unpublished Keith Morris photos, ‘Born To Boogie’ is the ultimate film of Marc Bolan and superstardom in the early 1970s.
Born to Boogie consists of concert footage; recording studio scenes with Ringo Starr and Elton John, filmed at the Apple Studios in Savile Row, London;[citation needed] and various vignettes reminiscent of The Beatles’ Magical Mystery Tour, shot at Denham and Tittenhurst Park, Sunninghill. The Tea Party sequence was filmed at John Lennon’s estate in the same spots as Lennon’s “Imagine” video was filmed. The actor Geoffrey Bayldon of Catweazle fame was bemused to find that things were not going to plan when he arrived to play his role as a waiter at the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party Scene. The planned orchestra had to mime as the whole thing had not been planned too well.
