To promote the album, Bolan undertook a tour of the UK and Europe, with support from The Damned, who acknowledged T. Rex as a big influence. With a new T. Rex line-up, Bolan had already scored a # 13 hit single with InchI Love To BoogieInch, and followed this up with single releases of the title track of the album, InchThe Soul Of My SuitInch And InchCrimson MoonInch, before culminating with the exuberant InchCelebrate SummerInch, tragically the last single to be issued in Bolan's lifetime.
