The Children - Beautiful

Some authentic sixties psychedelia that you've probably never heard of, let alone heard. "Beautiful" is from the only album the Children ever put out, Rebirth. They were contemporaries and I think label-mates of the Thirteenth Floor Elevators. The CD, as usual, also collects miscellaneous singles and unreleased tracks. I'll probably post some more tracks over the next few days, as like all good Sgt Pepperesque albums of the time, there's a wide variety of music offered therein to the listener.

This post is dedicated to the memory of Donald Eugene Curling. Don was something of a musical mentor, but I'd lost touch with him over the years. I just found out he died several years ago. Requiescat in pace.
