'Back In Business' was recorded during the autumn of 2001 in Kent, England and produced and directed by Barry Newby.
Back in the autumn of 1997 original T-Rex members Mickey Finn and Paul Fenton were invited to appear at a specially organised show in Cambridge to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of Marc Bolan's untimely death. When Mickey, Paul and Marc's son Rolan appeared on stage the audience went wild. A decision to reform T-Rex was inevitable. Rehearsals were arranged and four new members were carefully chosen to complete the line-up.
Mickey Finn had been with Marc since Tyrannosaurus Rex and had brought a 'be-bop' approach to the music. Paul Fenton had joined the band in 1973 after it had become T-Rex. They were joined by Alan Silson who had been in Smokie, Rob Benson, a lifelong fan who now had the job he had always dreamed of - singing alongside his heroes, and two experienced musicians Dave Major and Tony Allday.

Mickey Finn, percussionist in T. Rex, appeared with ex-T. Rex drummer Paul Fenton in autumn 1997 at a Cambridge show commemorating the 20th anniversary of Marc Bolan's death. This led to a decision to re-form T. Rex, with a lineup including Finn, Fenton, and four other musicians, the most well-known of whom was Alan Silson (formerly of Smokie). That really couldn't be called a re-formed T. Rex, though, as Marc Bolan was always the featured attraction of the act that went under that name prior to his death. So the group toured as Mickey Finn's T-Rex, and in 2002 released a studio album, Renaissance. That record was heavy on remakes of vintage T. Rex hits like "Ride a White Swan," "Get It On," "20th Century Boy," "Born to Boogie," "Solid Gold Easy Action," "Hot Love," and "Jeepster," with lead singer Rob Benson approximating the sound of Bolan's vocals. Mickey Finn's T-Rex continued to tour until Finn's untimely death on January 11, 2003 at the age of 55. It was suspected that the percussionist died of kidney and liver problems, wich had plagued him in his later years, but no official cause of death was reported.
