X-T. Rex (previously Bill Legend's T. Rex) were a tribute band formed in 2014 by former T. Rex member Bill Legend. They have done a European tour and were expected to release an album.
History
In 2014 Bill Legend, the last surviving member of the classic 1970-1973 T. Rex lineup, went about putting a new band together to perform old T. Rex songs despite having signed a petition to attempt to stop Mickey Finn's T-Rex. from performing with the T. Rex name a few years earlier. He recruited lead vocalist Danny McCoy, lead guitarist Ross McEwen, keyboardist Lee Swindon and bassist Stuart McArthurto to complete the lineup. [1] They have completed a tour of Europe and are expected to release an album titled Mover and the Groover despite T. Rex fans being unhappy about a new album under a slightly different name to the original band.
