There doesn’t appear to be anything online about this band anywhere, but … here’s a weird thing. In 1992, at the very same venue, I saw a band called Valley Of The Dolls, which featured the same guitarist and bassist, going by the names of Leila Liran and Beverley de Schoolmeester respectively. A year later still I encountered a band called Mad Dog at the Bull & Gate and spoke to the bassist in the bar, telling her I’d seen her somewhere before. She rolled her eyes … “That’s what they all say…”

Tomorrow I bring you 29 photos of Security Risk from 1980.
