Heart of the sun - Red Box

'Heart of the sun' was another single released from Red Box's debut album 'The circle and the square' (1986). After the chart success of the single 'For America', the record company was hoping for another audience favourite. Unfortunately, even with this limited edition double single which literally included that single 'For America', this release stalled at number 71 in the UK singles chart.

Due to increasingly strained relations between the band and their record company, Julian Close left to work in A&R and Simon Toulson-Clarke took time out from writing and recording in order to travel.

My collection: 7" single no. 2013
Found: October 18, 1993
Cost: 2 pounds
Tracks: 'Heart of the sun' / 'Enjoy (Solid Gold Easy Amex)' // 'For America' / 'R n' A'
