As one of the UK's most successful pop icons there were no Flys on the wonderful (if petite) Marc Bolan, however on early pressings of his classic Electric Warrior album there was a very large fly indeed.

My sister owned this record and it was full of very suggestive lyrics "lying on the beach, I wanna tickle your peach, it's a rip off"..."Rockin in the nude, I'm feeling such a dude, it's a rip off"...

I remember thinking to myself this is rude! This is what rude means! I was so happy I played the album 'till the grooves wore flat.
