prosecution for war crimes following World War II, Bormann was for years thought to have escaped, like Biggs, to Brazil. The title of the song was originally supposed to be "Cosh the Driver", a reference to the near-fatal beating that the train driver had suffered in Biggs's robbery years before. Virgin Records vetoed the idea, and the song eventually appeared as "No One Is Innocent (A Punk Prayer by Ronnie Biggs)". On the 12" pressing, the title became "The Biggest Blow", but subsequent releases on albums reverted to the original title. The song reached number seven on the UK singles chart, and appears on the albums The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle and Flogging a Dead Horse.

The second song recorded, "Belsen Was A Gas", turned up on the movie soundtrack album of The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle in 1979. Overdubs to both songs were recorded at Wessex Studios in London with engineer Bill Price. "My Way" The backing track of the song was recorded at Studio de la Grande Armée in Paris on 10 April 1978 with engineer Emmanuel Guyot. French session musicians were used - Claude Engel on guitar, with the rhythm section from the disco band Voyage (Sauveur Mallia on bass guitar and Pierre-Alain Dahan on drums). The vocals were recorded on the same day, the final single version consisting of three different vocal takes. Overdubs were recorded back at Wessex Studios in London with engineer Bill Price. Steve Jones added guitars and Simon Jeffes arranged an orchestral intro to
