DYNAMIC (ITALY)

CD

$19.00
Catalog #:
DYNA 018CD
"Featuring a pre-T-Rex Marc Bolan, John's Children were one of the more notorious bands on the 1966-68 London mod/psych scene. Their first single 'Smashed Blocked,' with its opening crescendo of swirling organ and reverb-drenched vocals, was one of the U.K.'s first overtly psychedelic records. This collection contains many Bolan compositions, 4 BBC tracks, and alternative versions of their well-known tunes."

LP
Price:
$15.00
Catalog #:
VL 900700LP
Restocked, lower pricing. "The band that was 'louder than the Who' and who became one of the earliest examples of psychedelic flower power. You will find Marc Bolan (T.Rex) at his loudest all over this. Everything you'll want from one of Britain's most rambunctious bands. In fact, the band's stage show, which included band members fighting each other and Bolan whipping the stage with a chain, was a huge influence on punk rock. Many cuts are penned (and performed) by Marc Bolan. Bonus tracks include a cover of The Beatles' 'Help.' Includes J. C. favorites such as: 'Desdemona' (which was banned by the BBC due to its 'controversial lyrics'), 'Midsummer Night's Scene' and 'Go-Go Girl.'"

Title:
Smashed Blocked!
Label:
VINYL LOVERS (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:
LP
Price:
$15.00
Catalog #:
VL 900717LP
Restocked, lower pricing; 180 gram vinyl. "An album collecting the material Marc Bolan recorded during his brief stint as lead singer of the short-lived (1966-68) mod psych band John's Children, although perhaps better known for their image and stage antics than their actual music (apparently managing to upstage the kings of stage antics, the Who, and inspire generations of punk rockers). Their debut single 'Smashed Blocked' was recorded by session men due to their lack of proficiency on their instruments, but by the time their second single 'Just What You'll Get' was released things were looking considerably up, featuring a solo by Jeff Beck on 'But She's Mine,' the single's B-side. Bolan joined the group soon after and recorded the single 'Desdemona' (banned by the BBC for its controversial lyrics). Of the 17 tracks present, a full 9 are either penned or performed by Marc Bolan. Although this band may only be a footnote in the annals of British freakbeat, original copies of the 'Midsummer's Night Scene' single have sold for $4,000! Includes printed innersleeve with liner notes."
