1972 Dec. 1st "Solid Gold Easy Action" was released.
Fast, punchy, pre-punk - it reached #2 on UK chart.
Joey Ramone loved it; he told Marc in '77
he should release it again. #marcbolan

When I think of artist Rowland Hilder’s work I think of winter scenes of rural Kent.
But I also love his London landscapes

As the lights go out all over the world, be a shining beacon

It is important everyone knows there is still good out there, and where to find it

The darker it gets, the more you shine

Do not lose your humanity
