The Fabulous Jack Green's 'Don't Kick Me When I'm Down' from Rengo73g


 
This is a rare, timeless classic by the Master Himself!  This is another fan favorite that was rarely played in performance, and unfortunately, no live track has been recorded.  (Unless Mr. Fabulous has one somewhere in that studio of his.  Jack?  Where's the live version of this?)

Future Rock God as Young Mod

 
This is The Fabulous Jack Green as a young mod, sporting a recent haircut and some brand new threads.  Does he look different from the modest guitar sensation that Marc Bolan immediately hired for T-Rex when Jack was a few years older?  This was a brilliant and confident move on Marc Bolan's part, as Jack could easily hold down the lead guitar and much of the rhythm guitar parts simultaneously, which allowed Marc to concentrate on his outrageous and often over the top stage moves.  Quite a feat for any nineteen year old, but Jack never succumbed to the pressure that would later have a hand in the early demise of his friend and boss Marc Bolan.  Little did the world know that Jack was continually and quietly honing his amazing song writing skills and guitar wizardry to later release four solo albums that have stood the test of time.  We are proud to herald his wonderful and memorable music, which we enjoy each and every day.  Currently, Jack is relaxing and enjoying the company of his lovely wife and faithful canine friend Digby, his many friends and relatives and the eccentric characters that he encounters in his travels.
