"I Love to Boogie" is a song by English glam rock act T. Rex. It was recorded in May 1976 and released as a single in June by record label EMI. It later appeared on T. Rex's final studio album, 1977's Dandy in the Underworld. Its B-side, "Baby Boomerang", was taken from an earlier T. Rex album, The Slider (1972).

Recording

"I Love to Boogie" was recorded and mixed in a single day by engineer Ian Maidman at Decibel Studio in Stamford Hill, London.[1]

Release

"I Love to Boogie" was released as a single on 5 June 1976 by record label EMI. It later appeared on T. Rex's final studio album, 1977's Dandy in the Underworld. The song was in the UK charts for a total of nine weeks, peaking at No. 13.[2]

The song was released to controversy due to its resemblance to Webb Pierce's "Teenage Boogie", prompting rockabillies to attempt to burn copies of the single at an event held in a pub on the Old Kent Road, South East London. Disc jockey Geoff Barker complained that "The records are so alike it can't be a coincidence." When Pierce's publishers contacted Bolan's London office, Bolan's manager Tony Howard employed a musicologist to analyse both songs. The musicologist noted that "Teenage Boogie" was itself based on a riff that had been around long before the song was written.[3]

"I Love to Boogie" is amongst T. Rex's best known and most popular hits.[4]
