Professional reviews

Orgasm is John's Children's sole album, projected for release on March 18, 1967, and eventually during September 1970. It was recorded before Marc Bolan joined the band. Recorded at Advison Studios in London, England and determined to be wanting as a studio album, it was transformed into a "live" album by producer Simon Napier-Bell by dubbing audience screams dubbed from The Beatles' movie, A Hard Day's Night.

According the liner notes by Chris Donovan in a 1982 Cherry Red Records reissue of the album, its release in the United States was stopped by Daughters of the American Revolution, who objected to the title.

In Australia it was released as eponymous album.
