Red Rum's Song, a tribute to the great race horse Red Rum, recorded at Strawberry Studios, Stockport, Manchester. Performed by Chris Swann, Trevor James, Robin & Cheryl. I am the producer of the record, and it was released on Pye Records in 1979. The song contains the original BBC radio commentary of Red Rum's third Grand National victory, by the late Peter Bromley. This is home movie footage I filmed of the singers of the song meeting Red Rum at Aintree racecourse for a press & TV call. Red Rum's trainer Ginger McCain, a very nice guy, arranged the day especially for us and brought "Rummy" to Aintree for the occasion. Although it was originally thought he would race that year, he never did.
