There are at least two artists called Jungle Jim.

1. Jungle Jim is a roots reggae singer from Jamaica, whose real name is Sean Johnson. He was born into a musically oriented family and while attending the Ardenne High School in Kingston, Jamaica, young Sean started honing his musical skills and was soon broadening his repertoire at Sugar Minott's famous 'Youthman Promotion' studio. This was his introduction to a recording career, that became under the management of Percy Chin and Hyman Wright of Jah Life Records. Some of his early albums are 'Everything Is Everything' and 'Same Way'. In 2005 the one riddim album 'You Should Know' was released and got rave reviews from the reggae community. 2008 saw the release of his album 'Slave Ship'.

2. The 1971 British pop novelty hit 'Big Fat Oranguman' was the work of Jungle Jim, a songwriting/production team comprising guitarist Steve Wolfe, pianist/arranger Graeme Hall and singer Tony Cole. It was never a hit, but the song was daft and catchy enough to draw some attention. The Jungle Jim trio also penned 'Beg Steal or Borrow', Britain's 1972 entry for the Eurovision Song Contest and a #2 hit for The New Seekers. They also released a second Jungle Jim single ('Linda Love') in 1972, but it failed to garner any level of attention. Read more on Last.fm.
