Default The missing Jeremy Spencer albums

I read on a website an old interview with the band JYNXT (made of some of Jeremy's children) where they discussed the recordings that Jeremy had made while with the Childen of God/The Family. There was mention that he had recorded a rap album:
The cult broadly disapproves of music, but, in its contrary fashion, has made an exception for its most famous convert, Jeremy Spencer, who is permitted to record material for the organisation's exclusive use. Electric guitars are generally banned, although Spencer again enjoys a special licence to use one with his trademark slide, on the strict understanding that he keeps off the distortion pedal. "Dad plays a lot of sort of gospel music these days," says Ben. "And he made that rap album, too," Tally recalls with a giggle. "God, that was something. Embarrassing."

Now I know that the interview clearly states that the music was for use by The Family, but wouldn't you just love to listen to these works that we almost certainly will never be lucky enough to hear?
