Unicorn is the third studio album by English psychedelic folk (later glam rock) band Tyrannosaurus Rex (later known as T. Rex). It was released on 16 May 1969 by record labels Regal Zonophone and Blue Thumb, and was the last Tyrannosaurus Rex album to feature Steve Peregrin Took. Unicorn featured Marc Bolan on vocals, guitar, organ and phonofiddle and Took on percussion, bass and piano.

Marc's fantasy-inspired lyrics, overlayed for the first time with electric guitars and bass. The addition of electricity made the songs more recognizably rock, and tracks like "Woodland Bop" and "Pavilions Of Sun" are exponentially more visceral than anything recorded previously, with bursts of fuzz and wah-wah guitar that explode out of the speakers. This long-overdue remaster features improved sound, restored artwork and lyrics, along with bonus tracks that double the length of the original LP. Although the released versions of non-LP cuts "Once Upon The Seas Of Abyssinia" (one of the most hypnotic Tyrannosaurus tracks), "Blessed Wild Apple Girl" and "Find A Little Wood" are inexplicably missing, we do get.

It was notable for being the first album on which Bolan used electric guitar, although that instrument had first appeared on the band's 1969 single "King of the Rumbling Spires"/"Do You Remember".
