"I Love to Boogie" was released as a single on 11 June 1976 by record label EMI.^[2] 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.^[3]

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.^[4]
