Futuristic Dragon is the eleventh studio album by English rock band T. Rex, released worldwide on 30 January 1976 by EMI Records bar North America.

The album saw Marc Bolan continuing to experiment, blending rock with soul music and disco elements on certain tracks.

The sleeve illustration was conceived by artist George Underwood, who had first worked with Bolan on the 1968 Tyrannosaurus Rex album My People Were Fair and Had Sky in Their Hair.... Preceded by the release of two UK Top-40-hit singles from the album, "New York City" which went at number 15 and "Dreamy Lady" which reached the top 30,[1] Futuristic Dragon was released on 30 January 1976.

PopMatters wrote: "The album defies expectation, presenting a surprisingly consistent set of tunes dovetailing with the burgeoning disco scene without entirely partaking of it", adding that the record was "full of lush orchestration and soul-style backing vocals".

"[4] Alexis Petridis praised it in the Guardian, saying: it "was packed with fantastic songs – the gorgeous Dawn Storm was by far the most successful of his attempts to meld his sound with soul music – and had it been released as the followup to Tanx, it might have arrested his commercial slide".
