The Red Roosters were from Unna, and as they had first one, then two, and at last three Englishmen in their line-up, British Forces Broadcasting Services in Cologne, the British Forces’ radio station, picked them up and thus we have examples of what else was happening in Germany and how good the band was. Before we start with the real goodies, we have an amateur live recording from 1965 for you.
