Renfrewshire author's new story on T-Rex band member can be found on Amazon

A Renfrewshire writer has released a new novel which tells the story of T-Rex band member, Marc Bolan, on Amazon.

The book, which is called A-Z Action: The Marc Bolan’s Who’s Who and was written by Paul Miller, tells the life of the famous band member’s life through other band members, his family, recording professionals and many others.

Paul Miller, 54 from Inchinnan, said: “I am a fan of Marc Bolan and with me being a fan, I have met six members of the band, T-Rex, over the years and two members of his earlier 1960s band. I started looking into it and with all the interviews that I had conducted at the time, which I wasn’t even aware of at the time were interviews, I started collecting stuff.

“I thought to myself that this was stuff that nobody really knows even though there are a plethora of Marc Bolan biographies on the market, no one thought about doing an A-Z.”

The unusual, albeit unique, name of the book comes from one of Bolan’s and T-Rex’s singles, Solid Gold Easy Action, but Paul decided to use the American version of the name and decided to make a pun of the name.

Paul wrote the book for everyone to enjoy and hope it can reach a wider audience.

He explained: “It is a niche audience, it is not a general biography, it is a book written for everyone. Particularly those who have read everything about Marc Bolan or thought they had.”

The story on Amazon has had some positive feedback so far.

Paul is looking to write some more novels in the future and if interested in reading his work on Marc Bolan, it can be found on Amazon.
