solid gold
Completely precious metal
Solid gold describes something made entirely of gold, not merely gold-plated or gold-filled.
The phrase extends to anything of genuine quality or unquestionable value: a solid gold hit, solid gold advice.
In music, "solid gold" often labels classic songs that have proven their staying power.
The term can also be hyperbolic praise: That idea is solid gold.
