Hi Dizzy,
Russell Chaney commented on his Post.
Russell wrote: "Hi! Yes, there's about a 30-second snatch of "Red Light" on that film (available through Amazon). We recorded various demos of songs including some at Gooseberry Studios in Soho where the Sex Pistols recorded all their hits. The Eric Miller/Give A Damn single was recorded at Strawberry Studios in London. Somewhere in my loft is a reel-to-reel tape of Some Great British Heroes recordings, but I have no idea what's on it! We'd be happy for the two tracks to appear on the compilation album if you could send us a copy of the CD when it's completed?

Ta,

Russell Chaney
