This one is an absolute riot from start to finish, here is what Wiki said: John's Children were a 1960s pop art/mod rock band from Leatherhead, England that briefly featured future T. Rex frontman Marc Bolan. John's Children were known for their outrageous live performances and were booted off a tour with The Who in Germany in 1967 when they upstaged the headliners. Their 1967 single "Desdemona", a Bolan composition, was banned by the BBC because of the controversial lyric, "Lift up your skirt and fly." Their US record label delayed the release of their album, Orgasm for four years from its recording date due to objections from Daughters of the American Revolution.
John's Children were active for less than two years and were not very successful commercially, having released only six singles and one album, but they had a big influence on punk rock and are seen by some as the precursors of glam rock. In retrospect the band has been praised for the impact they had, and their singles have become amongst the most sought-after British 1960s rock collectables.

Great release, thanks......heres my story about buying this LP....i briefly moved from the Philly area to Phoenix, AZ, before ultimately LA in 1981.....in '82, when this LP came out, there was a UK release by The Creation on Edsel Records around the same time.....bought them both, loved 'em......small time later, i saw the mighty LA band The Plimsouls at a venue in Phoenix, and wandered back stage and met the fellas......all great guys, and they invited me and others back to their hotel rooms for a party....got to talking with singer Peter Case, and I mentioned those two reissues of John's Children and Creation, and he was knocked out....sooo, i zoomed back to my apartment, got a speeding ticket on the way back to their hotel, and gave the two lps to a very appreciative Peter Case!!!!!
Wow there Jim!! I would be flattened too if when I first read of both these album less at the time legends and then get informed or rare I guess but yeah my first speeding ticket was around that time in high school but worth it as I had just snuck into my first First Ave gig on school night to see the Freaky Stylee tour of the Red Hot Chilipeppers!!!!!
