I like Bolan's lyrics. They are imaginative and fun. This clip is rather long so you might not like it.

Let's Get Funky Hound Dog Taylor (1974)
This was the first song that I saw HDT's genius. I first heard him in a listening booth in the mid 70s and I didn't like him - thought he was a bit crap. Fast forward to the 90s when I heard a cover of this song by Jack O'Fire and it made me check out the original and found it exceptional and wanted more.

The Teardrop Explodes | Reward | Original Promo Restored | 1981
Got the Julian Cope book Head On/Repossessed in our charity shop. Has insight into the Liverpool punk scene.
On this day, the 23rd of January 1981, The Teardrop Explodes released their single Reward. Here is a new remaster of the Don Letts-directed promo video that accompanied the release.
The promo video was directed by filmmaker and musician Don Letts. It was shot at a then-disused part of Liverpool’s Victoria Docks. The video featured a who’s who of the burgeoning Liverpool alternative music scene at the time. In addition to members of Teardrop Explodes, the video features members of Echo & the Bunnymen and the Wild Swans and other luminaries from Zoo Records and the Erics scene. The cast are clad [according to IMDB] in 1940’s WWII chic, careering around the dock in an old Austin Champ, a military and civilian jeep-like vehicle produced in the 1950s, and hiding in candlelit abandoned industrial buildings.
