New - Orphan Egg - Orphan Egg - LP

Reissue, originally released in 1968. Orphan Egg were a short-lived group who were formed in 1967 in San Jose, California. Their sole self-titled album was released in 1968 on the small independent company Carole Records. Essentially a garage-psych album -- in the tradition of future iconic compilation like Nuggets or Pebbles -- Orphan Egg was recorded by a bunch of students at Saratoga High School in Saratoga. Occasionally they won the Vox Battle of the Bands, a nationwide competition. They also appeared on the soundtrack of the classic bike-movie Cycle Savages with three tracks.
