Hot Flesh Rumble - The Scaramanga Six Live in Session is a compilation album by The Scaramanga Six. It compiles live-in-the-studio recordings made for radio between 2004 and 2007, and was released in between the band's fourth and fifth studio albums.[1]

Reception[edit]

Reviewing the album in Vibrations magazine, Rob Paul Chapman wrote "It would be easy to conclude that these are just off-cuts and make-weights but the scale of the songs in such a confined environment breathes new life into the recorded work... Shorn of the bells and whistles, with the energy of a live performance, there is a strong argument for "Elemental" and "Pincers" to be considered the definitive recordings"[2]
