JOAT JETT Pays Tribute to T. REX with New Cover of 'Jeepster' - Stream
15 July 2020This September, the music of Marc Bolan and T. REX will be honored with a star-studded tribute album titled AngelHeaded Hipster.
The late Hal Willner produced the effort, which consists of 26 covers performed by prominent acts like U2, Elton John, Father John Misty, and Metric’s Emily Haines.
Already we’ve heard the contributions of Nick Cave (“Cosmic Dancer”) and Kesha (“Children of the Revolution”).
Now, punk icon Joan Jett has shared her take on T. REX’s “Jeepster”. Jett considered Bolan “her teenage idol”, and her rendition of the 1971 single is nothing short of a splendid homage to the T. REX leader and glam rock legend. For the recording, the 61-year-old Jett received assistance from backing musicians Marc Ribot (guitar), Thomas “Doveman” Bartlett (piano), and Jim White (drums).
