It's hard to imagine just how big T-Rex were at the time of this record's release. Having turned heads with their early work in the late-1960s, their development from psychedelic folk darlings to psyche rock dons and, finally, glam rock rebels is woefully overlooked in the common conscious today, despite the fact any self-respecting history of English guitar music has at least one chapter dedicated to Marc Bolan and comrades.

By the early-70s, their status was comparable to The Beatles, as was the prolific track record in the singles and albums charts, something made all the more impressive by the fact this was their seventh LP in just five years. Listening back to it now, and all this seems completely understandable. The Slider is packed with jams that ooze cool, swagger, and a strange kind of hallucinogenic sophistication, jangling, stomping, and crooning from one anthem you may not have even known this band made, to another.
