Tyrannosaurus Rex...

T. Rex were a British rock band, formed in 1967 by singer/songwriter and guitarist Marc Bolan. The band formed as Tyrannosaurus Rex, releasing four folk albums under the name. A producer had later suggested to Bolan that they shorten their name to "T. Rex".^{[citation needed]}

In the 1970s, the band had reached success with glam rock hits like "Jeepster", "Get It On", "Ride a White Swan", "20th Century Boy", "Children of the Revolution", "Hot Love", "Telegram Sam", and "Metal Guru".

After earning success in the mid-1970s, the band broke up after Bolan was killed in a 1977 car accident.
