Does anyone know where the Hellfire Club studio was?

Well?

I'd love to know.

On Caernarvon Street on the block between Balliol Street and Ashley Lane in the basement.

Davy Henderson, who ran it (I think) allegedly still has most of the tapes of recordings made there.

I spent a lot of time there and remember Davy Henderson well. I must still have a few tapes knocking about.

It was a very exciting time.

Good I haven't thought about that place in years. I need to go and lie down in a darkened room now and think about the past.

Was a recording studio, Sharon, in the embryonic days of post-punk. Most fleetingly famous Glasgow bands of aforementioned genre recorded there.

It started aff as a plumber or joiners storeand then it became a place to keep band equipment then a sort of rehearsal room and then a recording studio. If i remember correctley. Ronnie Brown had the next door cellar as accomodation and studio. i think Cado belle were among the first to use it to store gear.

But my memory is shot anyway. so Contributions welcome.

here's a starter

Hellfire The original Tron Church was burnt down in February 1793
by a gang of drunken gentlemen known as the Hellfire Club.

I gather their mothers were visited quite often by The Watch over other trivial matters.
