There is a live recording from the Winterhuder Fauhrhaus in Hamburg. However only one track has surfaced so far.
A fan has been in touch and says he may be able to get a copy from a Sex Pistols collector who owns it. In the meantime he has one track which we have received.
The Show in Hamburg 6th Oct.1977 was at the Winterhuder Fährhaus.The Show starts with Londons Burning and ends with Janie Jones plus an encore of Garageland if I remember correctly.It was one of the first UK Punk gigs in Hamburg. I've got some photos from this Show. Peter, Hamburg

Hamburg - Winterhuder Fährhaus
The Winterhuder Fährhaus is a well-known theatre that has hosted numerous performances and events over the years. The building is situated in the Winterhude district, a popular and chic area known for its Art Nouveau style architecture from the early 1900s. The district is also characterized by red-brick buildings.
Today, the Winterhuder Fährhaus continues to be a vibrant part of Hamburg's cultural scene. Since its founding in 1988, it has consistently stood for modern big-city comedies and has hosted numerous well-known stars from film and television. The theatre is also known for its special events from the fields of literature, music, and cabaret. The building is still standing and continues to contribute to the cultural life of Hamburg.

Crash at Clash
With the Hamburg punks it was a done deal: if the Clash performed in the market hall, they, the “traitors”, would be shown it. So three police squad cars were waiting on the next street corner to help with a possible one The riot seemed to arrive quickly, but the war between the audience and the band only took place in front of the stage.
The hall lights remained on, the mood promised aggression, everyone knew that something was going to happen. After the first songs there was suddenly silence, A bleeding boy is carried outside through the crowd. Until the end of the concert, the rumor persisted that Strummer jumped off the stage and hit the 18-year-old student over the head with the guitar.
And they should observed spectators surrounding them without intervening? When the excitement died down at the end of the gig, reliable witnesses who were standing right next to the stage spoke up: After initial spitting and throwing of projectiles, some punks started pulling on the cables (see photo). This also happened to Joe Strum-mer, who was pulled off the stage and unfortunately fell onto the boy with his guitar. An accident then.
The Hamburg police, who reportedly escorted Strummer safely out of the market hall after the concert on the pretext of a blood sample, left convince of.
The band traveled on to Sweden the next day unmolested, and the injured man was seen again in the “Marktstube”, the Hamburg punks' headquarters, after treatment for his cut on the head.
The news of the Hamburg incident spread The press office of the Clash record company CBS was able to credibly assure their colleagues in Argentina that Mick Jones was definitely still alive and that the "several people in the audience" also belonged to the realm of fable belong.
The punks tear the cables of the ClashWlikros. A little later, Joe Strummer falls off the stage.
