Tyrannosaurus Rex
My People Were Fair And Had Sky In Their Hair
My People Were Fair and Had Sky in Their Hair... But Now They're Content to Wear Stars on Their Brows is the debut album by psychedelic folk band Tyrannosaurus Rex (later known as T. Rex). The release of the album was planned for early May but delayed until 5 July 1968 by record label Regal Zonophone. The album was recorded at Advision Studios in London, England in April 1968 and produced by Tony Visconti. Advision was one of the first studios in the UK with eight-channel recording equipment. Two of the songs, "Mustang Ford" and "Hot Rod Mama" (a live BBC radio session) had been recorded earlier by Marc Bolan's pre-Tyrannosaurus Rex band John's Children (the former retitled as "Go Go Girl" after Bolan's departure). This version features the bonus track Debora.
