John's Children also featured Marc Bolan and Chris Townson. During the height of their popularity, Ellison carried a pillowcase stuffed with feathers, throwing them around the stage. On the group's (in)famous 1967 tour with The Who, Ellison threw feathers around the stage so much that Roger Daltrey could not sing.{{Citation needed|date=May 2008}} A song sung by Ellison, "It's Been A Long Time," appears on the soundtrack - better known for its contributions from The Spencer Davis Group and Traffic - to the film, Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush. "It's Been A Long Time" also featured on the compilation album, Backtrack 1, a Track Records release featuring The Who and Jimi Hendrix amongst others. Jet released a single album on CBS Records in 1975, toured as support to Hunter-Ronson and then became Radio Stars,[1] who had one UK Top 40 hit, "Nervous Wreck" in early 1978. It peaked at #39. The b-side to the single was a cover of Marc Bolan's "Horrible Breath", a John's Children staple. In the 1990s, Ellison fronted a reformed version of John's Children. Radio Stars reformed for a one-off gig in London in 2008 to mark the release of their Something For the Weekend live release on Radiant Future Records. Discography
