Children of the Future is the debut studio album by the Steve Miller Band, released in April 1968 by Capitol Records. Contributed by several writers, the songs on the album include a mixture of blues and psychedelic rock. The album was produced by British record producer-engineerGlyn Johns. It reached number 134 on the Billboard 200 album chart.
Rolling Stone described the first side, which plays as a single continuous track (subtitled Children of the Future), as being "constructed like Sgt Pepper". Writing in Crawdaddy!, Peter Knobler called the album "a triple moment of experience, knowledge, inspiration". However, many of the songs had been written earlier when Miller was working as a janitor at a Texas music studio.
