Marc Bolan died on this day in 1947 in a car crash just a few days shy of his 30[SUP]th[/SUP] birthday which would have been on 30 September 1977; his girlfriend was driving. He had never learned how to drive, having a fear of a premature death. Easily one of the most fascinating artists and characters of an era â he was the frontman for glam rock band T Rex.
