The self-titled album cover alone tells the story. Shortening the previous Tyrannosaurs Rex moniker was a brilliant hand at rebranding - fewer words mean larger, bolder representation. To the subtle ear, T. Rex can almost sound like a glimpse at both the past and future at once. Much of the album is historically defined by Ride a White Swan - the slow burn, near chart-topping single that preceded the album. Had that been up for full consideration, this list may be different.
