Footnoted in the proper annals due to Marc Bolan's four-month stint in the band in 1967, they were capable of putting out sloppy art-pop and psychedelic R&B that could easily be ranked alongside that of the Who or the Creation. Tracks such as "Desdemona" and "Jagged Time Lapse" were spiked with an energy that not even a handful of black beauties could stir up. Occasionally viewed as less than apt performers due to producer Simon Napier-Bell's insistence that the band's <I>Orgasm</I> album be spliced together with the crowd screams culled from the soundtrack of <I>A Hard Day's Night</I>, John's Children's catalog has endured thanks to labels such as Bam Caruso and Cherry Red. Their body of work is caught somewhere between brilliant and beguiling. - Jon PruettModen720Tue, 29 Dec 2009 11:36:00 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9462&rws=%2Fjohns-children%2Fdiscography.rss John's Children were a superb, often sloppy brand of English freakbeat and art-school theatrics who looked good in white and whose reputation among scooter kids and Psychedelic fans has grown steadily over the years.
