A DIY label. An EP by White Lightning seems to have been Hot's sole release. The labels didn't have a year on them, but the East Anglian Music Archives say that the band was active around 1976, so I'm quietly confident that their EP can be allotted to that period. In addition to the tracks shown on the scan the EP offered 'Hot Feet' and 'Sally Brown's Hat'. As can be seen, its catalogue number was HWL-001. Copies exist with blank white labels; it looks as though the printed label above may have been pasted over one such. The archive gives the band's members as being Steve and Martin Popey and Dave and Andrew Lincoln. Thanks to Klepsie of the 45Cat site for bringing Hot to my attention, and to Redpunk of the same site for permission to use his scan here.
