Orang-Utan
were in fact a London based band called
Hunter
, featuring vocalist
Terry "Nobby" Clarke
(of psych-pop legends
Jason Crest
), guitar player
Mick Clarke
, drummer and songwriter
Jeff Seopardi
and bass player
Paul Roberts
. They recorded their sole album in 1971 and DeLane Lea studios. In a bizarre twist of events, their producers/managers ran with the tapes to the US, where they placed the album on Bell Records under a new band name: Orang-Utan, without telling any of the band members. A lost classic of blazing, early hard rock with minor psychedelic hangover vibes, a twin-guitar attack, and waves of fuzz/wah, along with powerful vocals. Think

Hard Stuff
... Legit reissue done in co-operation with the original band members. Insert with liner notes telling the bizarre story of the band, and rare photos. "
Quintessentially British hard-rock, transforming the blues in a way American bands rarely did, and with a kind of vocal intensity that compares to
Free
,
Humble Pie
, et al
." --
