Barcode: 601570655784
Release Date: 23 Oct 2026
Genre: Rock

The cult 1971 rock album Orang-Utan, newly remixed and remastered for the first time from producer Adrian Millar's original 8-track session tape. Recorded in a single session at London's De Lane Lea Studios -- where Jimi Hendrix cut Hey Joe and Purple Haze -- and engineered by Louis Austin, who helmed early sessions for Fleetwood Mac and Queen, these eight tracks of raw, hard-driving rock have circulated for decades via various reissues -- none sourced from this tape.

This first-ever 2-CD set presents 24 tracks across three configurations: The Producer's Cut, newly mixed and speed-corrected by Sean B. Perkins; the original session instrumentals with studio banter; and a faithful remix of the original LP sequence. Digipak with 32-page booklet featuring liner notes and memorabilia compiled by Mark V. Perkins.

RIYL: late-60s/early-70s hard rock, Led Zeppelin, Thin Lizzy,
