Bolan's Zip Gun is the tenth studio album by English rock band T. Rex, released in February 1975 by record label EMI.. Eight of the eleven songs on the album had already been released in the US the previous year on the Light of Love album on Casablanca Records.
The album consists of outtakes and demos recorded by Bolan in 1966. Some of the songs would later be recorded by Bolan's band, Tyrannosaurus Rex. Most of these tracks have also been released in their original form on the album, The Beginning of Doves (1974). In 1981, backing instrumentals were recorded and added to Bolan's original recordings.
