The Big Game Hunters 45 "See The Cheetah" b/w "Swingin' Shepherd Blues" on UNI Records #55008 (promo). From online: Mort Garson, listed here as the arranger, is involved. While he had some noteworthy success producing and writing records in the late 50's and early 60's, Mort Garson is best remembered to psychedelic fans as a somewhat successful producer/writer/arranger in Los Angeles responsible for the cult LP, "The Zodiac: Cosmic Sounds", released on Elektra in 1967, a novelty item featuring meandering 'Summer of Love' rock instrumentals, each with monologues involving the signs of the Zodiac. It is somewhat notable due to Garson's extremely early use of electronic synthesizers (including the Moog-- the "Zodiac" LP is the first LP from the West Coast to use it).
The A-Side of this single is attributed to one "A. Shuman" and is almost entirely instrumental, save for a young woman rather ludely growling "See the cheetah! He looks so groo-vy!" There is a bit of the same electronic synthesizer (from "Zodiac") to be heard on it. It's a pretty great track, with upper register female singing and an interesting "Jungle"-like sound, including bongo drums and flute.
