Default T-Rex extremely underrated

I see where you're coming from when you say that they are played too much on the radio, especially "Bang a gong". Classic "rock N' roll" radio stations are terrible, they literally play the same songs everyday. Not long ago I explored T-Rex further and realized what an amazing band they are. I hear them in some of the Black Keys music, to me Mambo Sun has a similar rhythm and guitar to Everlasting Light but you really can't compare the two. T-Rex reminds me of the Kinks and how underrated they are, growing up I thought the kinks were a one hit wonder with "Lola" because of the over-kill on the radio, until I realized their entire discography is brilliant. Moral of the story is don't listen to the radio.
