John's Children featured on Ed’s Show: My Generation - Tuesday 01 April 2014 on Radio 68


JOHN’s CHILDREN John’s Children were Marc Bolan’s first band, but it would be very unfair to define John’s Children in Bolan terms (if only because he soon went back to his acoustic guitar…). John’s Children were violent, loud, psychedelic, very beat and highly Mod. An unusual combination, indeed! They out-who’d The Who when on tour in Germany, causing riots, falling out with The Who and having their equipment confiscated…. Their white garderobe out-Moded any band pretending to be Mod.

Lead-singer Andy Ellison is still very much alive and singing with the new John’s Children line-up, writing his bio and overlooking cd releases – the very latest being “A Strange Affair”. This double cd lists no less than 52 tracks, including many Ellison solo recordings, lots of alternate takes and the never-released album Orgasm.

Radio 68 broadcasts the entire Orgasm and snippets from the exclusive Radio 68 interview with Andy Ellison in London.  www.johnschildren.co.uk
