As a long-term T. Rex fan, there's not many archive clips in here that I hadn't seen before - but there are some, which is good. Also, the interviews with various old associates (such as Bowie, Elton and Ringo) and cover artists from the accompanying AHH album (such as Nick Cave) are quite interestingly fresh. Nice to see non-interviewed players such as Wayne Kramer also.
The interpretations of the songs from the album vary from the straight-on copy to almost unrecognisable, but the whole is imbued with a pervasive sense of affection for the man and his music, which is quite touching, as is their descriptions of his influence on their lives and careers.
Quite nicely done.
