    I'm very thankful for this interview and to be able to hear June's comments about Marc. However, the interviewer is totally lacking in the ability to ask a question and listen with interest to what's being said! He isn't really paying attention! He asks June a question, interrupts her and then moves on to the next thing - or worse, he interrupts her when she's in the middle of answering! He needed to let her finish what she was saying, especially if he had any interest in the content of what this interview was even all about! Other than that, what June reveals in this recording is interesting. My question is, who conducted this interview and why? Whoever he is, he seems entirely removed from Marc Bolan and June Child. (L. Isgrig, Northern, CA - 3/14/20).

      @@iancollinson4865 Not everyone is a born or trained interviewer, and it's clear this chap wasn't. It's a deceptively difficult skill, and you'd find that out if you tried something as simple as interviewing a family member for genealogy purposes - and THAT'S with someone you'd likely know quite well (been there, done that, sounded like a rank amateur). This man obviously didn't know June so the nerves would have kicked in, too. However, as the OP did point out, without him, we wouldn't have this interview, would we? So how about keeping your unpleasant comments to yourself? Especially when you can see he'd already commented, so would probably see what you'd oh-so "bravely" written. You're just coming across as rude, and it's unnecessary.

    I have just noticed at 18:26 the interviewer then wrongly states The Bolan Tree had been cut down when in actual fact only one of the twin-trunks had actually been cut-down. The other trunk was saved from being felled as it was scheduled to have been in 2002 when TAG took steps to save it. The Bolan Tree would still be there now had some mad 'fan' not hollowed out some of the rotted section of the trunk (which was supported by a custom-made calliper) and filled the Bolan Tree interior with 5 litres of diesel because of jealousy. That was in 2014. TAG waited until Spring 2015 in the vane hope the arborealist TAG consulted was wrong. But in our minds, we knew he was right, but my heart still hoped a miracle would happen. Sadly, it didn’t, and The Bolan Tree had to be felled on Health & Safety grounds in 2015. The site is still a Shrine because of the PRS Memorial 'headstone' laid in 1997, unveiled by Rolan Bolan and the Bronze Bust also unveiled by Rolan Bolan five years later in 2002. It is a tragedy that June passed otherwise she would certainly have been invited to TAG's 2002 unveiling and quite probably to the PRS Memorial unveiling too. June is remembered there which is wonderful because we didn't know about this video at the time, with a Memorial Plaque on the steps. Her daughter Ilona was there for the unveiling. At the same time in 2005, other Memorial Plaques were also unveiled for the other members of T.Rex who, like Marc had 'passed over', namely, Steve Peregrin Took, Steve Currie, Mickey Finn and on the next step later T.Rex member Peter (Dino) Dines.

    When the early band members were mentioned, she seemed to say that that was
    the best line-up, there was structure.
    But I agree with June when she said that everything was downhill afterwards.
    Due to heavy drug use, Marc seemed to lose focus as though in a rut creatively.
    Image wise and musically, he seemed to lose his way.
    The second band, she called ''The Horrible Band''....they were pretty anonymous, tbh.

    No Questions about Rowland?? Roland Bolan? Marc Bolan’s only child? I mean, I know it may have been sensitive considering he had him with Gloria then forgot to or I’m sure just didn’t have time to update his will so, for at least a decade I believe Gloria had a difficult time as a single Mom. Ive got to google and see if Roland kept his lyrical name and used his musical talents!? June was a huge part of Marc and TRex’s success as Angie Bowie was largely uncredited for transforming David Bowie into a Rock Star both women Plugged them In, Turned them on & once they got where their wives vision led them, basically turned their back on them!! Peoples personal life details NEVER affect my appreciation for their Art, who am I to judge. Today audiences should take the cotton out of their ears and put it in their mouths and Listen to the Artist not dump of fire them when their creative spirit leaps out in unexpected and or societally unexpected ways....It’s The Music Man that Matters!! Oops here’s my stop High Horse DisMount Road, so long and somebody Plug In Roland!!!

      A lot of the money that Marc did have, hasn’t been given to anyone. I don’t think it’s selfish, she was his wife. After Marc died and Gloria moved back to the states (she should’ve went to jail for vehicle manslaughter) David Bowie helped her with Rolan. David was very good friends with Marc. It’s just a shame that both have passed on. Now both are reunited with each other, they never truly stopped loving one another. 💖 they were the soulmates, Gloria was the mother of his only child, but she was in fact the other woman.
