A spray of yellow wildflowers draw the eye into this expressionist landscape of Paso Robles, California. The wild purple thistles and rolling California hills create an idyllic landscape that your eye can roam through endlessly. Thick brush strokes and abstract color choices capture the essence of wildflower beauty.

Released 16 Mar 1973, Tanx by T.Rex was a musical departure from previous works: singer/songwriter Marc Bolan showed his interest for soul music, funk and gospel. New instruments such as the mellotron were used, played by producer Tony Visconti. The album made No. 4 in the UK album chart. #Tanx
