HERMANN ENT. - 'Enterprises'? 'Entertainment'? - seems to have been a DIY label, and a maxi-single by a band called Har Har Hermann appears to have been its sole release. Tracks on the EP were 'Kevin's Gonna Hang', 'Baked Bean Tin' and 'DJCR'; it had a catalogue number of HERMANN-001, and was pressed by French company MPO - MPO provided manufacturing for a lot of small independents in the late '70s and early '80s. There's no date on either the labels or the sleeve, but the 45cat site has it as being from 1977 and Sam Mauger - who was kind enough to bring Hermann to my attention and provide a scan - says that a copy was sent to the radio station where he worked in February 1978. The back of the sleeve gives a contract address in Kelross Road, London W2. As for the music, there are two Countryish tracks and a rude Rock 'n' Roll one.
