Some History Behind This Extremely Rare Record
Black Orchids hailed from Charleston, West Virginia and consisted of the power trio of Rob Hamer (guitar), John Wehde (bass), and Paul Bennington (drums). In 1974 they pressed AWOL, their sole output, on their own Black Orchids Records label in a tiny edition of 200 copies. This psychedelic hard rock album came in a plain white sleeve, shrinkwrapped. The album consists of one live track "AWOL" which was recorded live and being over 29 minutes long was spread over the two sides of the LP. For the most part the music is a heavy blues jam with many tempo changes and plenty of feedback.
