With limited musical ability but excitable stage antics aplenty, John's Children were '60s mods with one foot in some punk future. The original line-up--vocalist Andy Ellison, bassist John Hewlett, guitarist Geoff McClelland, and drummer Chris Townson--were named and picked up by Yardbirds manager Simon Napier-Bell. After the modest success of their "Smashed Blocked" single in the U.S., Napier-Bell recorded crowd noise over their debut, ORGASM, to suggest a band with phenomenal popularity in England. The ruse failed but the band kicked up enough dust on the live circuit with smashed instruments, staged fights, fake blood, and general mayhem to insure an enduring cult status long after their 1968 dissolution. Adding to their legend is the presence of Marc Bolan, who had a brief stint as the band's guitarist.
