T. Rex is an album by British rock band T. Rex, released in 1970. It was their fifth studio album, and their first under their abbreviated band name, following four albums as 'Tyrannosaurus Rex'.

The album contains electric reworkings of two old Tyrannosaurus Rex songs, one of which ("The Wizard") was originally recorded prior even to John's Children . The remaining songs, however, were new material. It was the album that broke the band and set them in the direction of consistent success over the next three years.

Before the release of T. Rex, "Ride a White Swan" was released as a predecessor in promotion of the album.

The US version of the LP includes the song "Ride a White Swan" as the last song on the album instead of "Children of Rarn (Reprise)".

This album was released on the Reprise record label in the United States. The artwork was strange, requiring a sideways look to unfold the cover, or to have the artwork sideways to remove the LP.
