Και για να μην ξεχνιόμαστε βέβαια ας ανεβάσω και ένα «πειρατή» made 7+7 με τιμή που βλέπω στο αυτοκόλλητο 3370 δρχ. Θα θυμίσω οτι οι κούτες στο 7+7 άνοιγαν βασικά την Κυριακή γύρω στις 10. Οι άρρωστοι σαν εμένα είχαν βέβαια κατέβει με την τσίμπλα στο ματι Μοναστηράκι από νωρίς για καφέ στην πλατεία Αββυσινίας αλλά και για περατζάδα στα κάθε λογής περίεργα αντικείμενα που ήταν προς πώληση.
Όσον αφορά το γκρουπ, όπως θα διαβάσετε παρακάτω ήταν η ένωση δύο άλλων γκρουπ. Ομολογώ ότι δεν περίμενα τόση ηρεμία για γκρουπ από το Τέξας. Το ότι ήταν βέβαια από το Τέξας το έμαθα αργότερα. Ελάχιστες έως ανύπαρκτες οι πληροφορίες στο οπισθόφυλλο περιείχαν εικόνες με τα μέλη του γκρουπ αλλά και φωτό με ορχήστρα από βιολιά. Θα ξεχωρίσω το κομμάτι Beautiful που είναι όνομα και πράμα (μακράν για την αισθητική μου το καλύτερο κομμάτι) αλλά και το I'll Be Your Sunshine που δικαιολογεί απόλυτα την φωτό με τα βιολιά.

ALBUM:
1(C) REBIRTH (Cinema 0001) 1968
NB: Also released by Atco (SD-33-271) 1968 in a regular cover. The Cinema issue had a fold-out sleeve.
45s:
1 Picture Me/Enough Of What I Need (Laramie 666) 1967
2 Maypole/I'll Be Your Sunshine (Atco 6633) 1968
3 Pills/Once More (Cinema 025) 1970
4 From The Very Start/Such A Fine Night (Ode 66005) 1970 105
5 Hand Of A Lady/Fire Ring (Ode 66013) 1971
One of the more commercial acts to come from San Antonio, Texas in the 1960s, Perron, Cabaza, Szuch, Trieber and Holzhaus had all previously been with The Mind's Eye. It had been speculated that Bill Ash (ex-The Stoics) had been in The Children as a version of The Stoics Enough Of What I Need appeared on the flip of The Children's first single. Chris Holzhaus has, however, told us that he played on all The Children's recordings, and that Bill Ash had only been an early member of The Mind's Eye.
Mike Marechal replaced Trieber after Trieber was killed in a drag boat accident at McQueeney Lake outside San Antonio Texas in '68.
Their second 45 was taken from their album - a collection of pleasant pop and psychedelia produced by Lelan Rodgers. There may also have been a test pressing for an LP on Ode. Cassell Webb was later in Saddlesore and went on to production work and a solo career. She is now based in the UK. Perron also enjoyed a brief solo career but sadly committed suicide, whilst Holzhaus went on to Eastwood Review.
There's also a CD with Thursdays Children entitled Stoned Sixties. It was released on Collectables (COL-CD-0600).
Compilation appearances include: Francene on '69 Love-In (CD); and Enough Of What I Need on Highs In The Mid Sixties, Vol. 23 (LP) and Acid Visions - The Complete Collection Vol. 1 (3-CD).
The Children's cover of Ian Whitcomb's This Sporting Life on Boulders, Vol. 5 and Ya Gotta Have Moxie, Vol. 1 (Dble CD) is by a different L.A. band.
