Marc Bolan forever held the belief that one day he would be famous and also that he would die young - in both respects history was to prove him right. This stunning programme takes an in-depth view of the man and the musician. Radio DJ Bob Harris discusses in detail Bolan's friendship with fellow DJ John Peel and the reasons why the friendship would founder and die, and of his own feelings about the drive and ambition Bolan excited. Long time girlfriend Gloria Jones and friends Steve Harley, Captain Sensible of The Damned and music maestro Mike Mansfield also reminisce about the time spent with the music legend.

This DVD is a detailed and moving account of a phenomenal talent whose self-belief never waned. That his songs still live in the hearts and minds of his devotees almost 30 years later is a standing testament to an incredible talent.
