Paul Fenton
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paul Fenton is a drummer best known for his work with the band T-Rex. After leaving his band Christie he started playing drums with the original version of T-Rex in 1973, after being recommended to Marc Bolan by his producer Tony Visconti. Paul Fenton played Drums on the album Zinc Alloy & the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow (a creamed cage in August) released as 'Marc Bolan & T-Rex'. He features on the gate-fold album inner sleeve in a number of the 'polaroid' photographs which decorate the inside. He also toured with Marc Bolan & T-Rex & plays on tracks on a number of the 'extended' reissues of albums including Dandy in the Underworld'. Paul Fenton, along with Mickey Finn helped reform T-Rex in 1997 going by the name of Mickey Finn's T-Rex. Even after the death of Finn in 2003 he continued to play drums for the band which still performs as a Celebration of Marc Bolan and Mickey Finn today.
