about

Very little is known about King Utu, and much of what is known is surrounded in myth. Many believe he is over 9000 years old and has passed through time inhabiting different bodies ensuring his knowledge of mankind is unrivalled amongst gods.

The latest incarnation of Utu is supposedly between 150-200 years old and has wisdom beyond human comprehension. Unable to communicate on normal terms, his expression comes through horns of various shapes and sizes.

6 short tracks of free improvised jazz from the brothels of ancient Mesopatamia. Proudly brought to you on cassette by The Clap.
