Robin Carr

When I was about 7-8 years old, I got my dad to take me again and again to Circlorama - a cinema with a 360-degree screen, at Piccadilly Circus. The film featured The Swinging Blue Jeans performing 'Hippy Hippy Shake'. Still love it - and finally learned the iconic guitar solo!

@TRextasyBand @SimonSmith88836 @T_Rex_Official @MarcBolan1977 ……and 20th Century Baby

@RobinCarr57 @SimonSmith88836 @T_Rex_Official @MarcBolan1977 Cheers Robin. I didn’t know you hung onto one. Not forgetting, I put in extras such as ‘Summertime Blues’, and a little bit of ‘Cosmic Dancer’, and ‘Dreamy Lady’ too.

Thanks to everyone who turned up for our intimate ‘Unplugged’ gig at The Lavenham August Festival tonight. We were astounded at the turnout. Thank you all so very much! Photo: @RobinCarr57 ! #marcbolan #trex #lavenham @T_Rex_Official @MarcBolan1977 #trextasyunplugged #suffolk

@SimonSmith88836 @TRextasyBand @T_Rex_Official @MarcBolan1977 Here you go

@TRextasyBand @RobinCarr57 @T_Rex_Official @MarcBolan1977 Could you post your setlist from last night please Mr. Rexy Man?

He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum.

@JahGospoddy @TRextasyBand @Tonuspomus @MarcBolan1977 @T_Rex_Official Marc & June’s flat at 31 Clarendon Gardens, Maida Vale, NW London

@TRextasyBand @Tonuspomus @MarcBolan1977 @T_Rex_Official would that be Ladbroke Grove?

Listening to this wonderful Japan vinyl pressing of ‘Bolan Boogie’ by T.Rex. Even the cover was superior - with a lovely poster and fold-out record sleeve. #trex #marcbolan #trextasy #rock #glam #vinylalbum @Tonuspomus @MarcBolan1977 @T_Rex_Official #1970s #1970smusic

@glydaw @TRextasyBand Happy birthday!

In Holmfirth celebrating my birthday, seems strange being here and no @TRextasyBand gig! Luckily got Grimsby to look forward to tomorrow, might even wear my 'new' top! 😃xx

@TRextasyBand @sdedition No, I hadn’t. Seems particularly mean-spirited to me!

@sdedition @RobinCarr57 - Have you seen this?

This is ludicrous.

I miss posting these pics every week. I miss the gigs, the endless travel, the hotels & getting home at silly o’clock. I miss the band, the people, the music, the buzz, the laughs, the ups & the occasional downs. I hope and I pray that these days will return soon.

A bit of Sunday fun for ya. A slightly different take on a classic Marc Bolan/Tyrannosaurus Rex track with roadie @RobinCarr57 and this time we even managed to get John Skelton to clear some space in his garage and set up a drum kit. Enjoy! youtu.be/V4baTFWfyF8

@juliadkfifield Great stuff!

🥁Bill Legend and friend, John🎹 Relaxing evening with friends.🎶 Hope you are all having a nice one. Xx

Bastard pyrocantha buried a tiny piece of thorn deep in the callus of my index finger, left hand. Exactly where you don't want it, if playing guitar. Hurt like hell! Now - hours later - managed to remove the bugger with a needle and tweezers. No wonder it hurt - it's 3mm long!

@CosmicXposure Torch not so hot in your new phone, then?

@RobinCarr57 Thank you I took weeks deciding what to go for and am well chuffed , even if in the dark I fell over the conservatory coffee table 😂

New phone stood out no lights on other than the solar ones and rook these I'm impressed. My garden at night

@CosmicXposure WTF? Some people..........

Would just like to clarify that my husband has not died nor has he left me and my mum isn’t dead either so you know who you are stop making stuff up and saying you hope any of the above is true you sad old woman

@TRextasyBand Yes - and I also wonder how many people know what the song was about!

@RobinCarr57 I wonder how many people ‘get it’?!

Prince of Wales bringing in new social distancing in Cornwall. You now have to pass the Duchy on the left hand side.

@rockandroll70s @Intocornwall What a great shot of a beautiful sunset!

Polly Joke (Porth Joke) sunset

Perfect end to a perfect day. Thanks @rockandroll70s for a wonderful 10 days #intocornwall

@RobinCarr57 Sod that we go out after six most of them have gone by then it’s crazy, you keep safe down here both of you

Not my shot I’ve got more sense than to go out in this madness this was St.Ives today #ridiculous

@TRextasyBand @rockandroll70s Yes, indeed. A hidden benefit of lockdown - still getting birthday presents, almost 3 months later!

@RobinCarr57 @rockandroll70s They look really cool and unique. I gather these are ‘belated’ birthday pressies?

So pleased with these two birthday presents from @rockandroll70s. Each unique piece is hand-made using materials collected on the beaches of the north Cornish coast, and her work is available through the Cornish Shorelines page on Facebook. Highly recommended! #IntoCornwall
