An individual, limited edition, example of vinyl record art made from a genuine, original, 45rpm, 7” single featuring the song by T.Rex (Marc Bolan) from 1972, Solid Gold Easy Action. The record was released on the EMI record label, in the UK, and has been reworked into the shape of a stack of gold bullion.

Solid Gold Easy Action was written by Marc Bolan of T.Rex.  While the song’s musical style lies rooted in the Rock and roll of the 1950s, its lyrics are surrealistic and a typical example of Bolan’s nonsense poetry. This song, like many of Bolan’s hit singles, uses words such as “satisfaction” and “action”, whilst mentioning predators such as foxes and tigers to give the song an undertone of sexuality. Combined with the rhythm and fast guitar strumming pattern on the song, Bolan creates an image of teenage sexual frustration that reflected the trends in contemporary popular culture.
