Deepness without glamour — Warmth and shadows in "Tanx"
T. Rex's quiet transformation, infused with soul and gospel.
While tracks like "Mad Donna" and "Country Honey" have a glam aftertaste, "Left Hand Luke and the Beggar Boys" lurks a gospel cry. Charting at No. 4 (UK), No. 3 (Germany), and No. 5 (Norway), the album was received as a quiet sway, a testament to T. Rex's maturity and less flashiness.
