hey-it was stirmonster who has the We Want Prince 12", I'd never heard about it and was just joking about how ballsy it is to name a song after an influence like that! I knew Lynn Tolliver was involved because another member of this community, Lauren, found that out somehow, and being from Cleveland, was familiar with him as a Cleveland radio personality of some sort? Had no idea he was behind a Black Eyed Peas song though!
And I know I Need a Freak is classic, but I'm still all about If I Gave You A Party.

The group began with Lourdes Figueroa (A latina hottie who later became Mrs. Lynn Tolliver) and Myself. We later became a multi-ethnic band with a little something for everybody. Sexy, Hot and Horney - Good concept..It worked!
I have a couple of the origional radio commericals that aired back then. The audio quality is very poor because they were recorded on cassette tape. I'll try to clean them up and provide a link.

When I was tying to find a connection between the Black Eyed Peas "My Humps" and "I Need A Freak" I came across all of these links referencing our band.I was so suprised and excited. Lynn Tolliver now works for Hot 105.7 FM WHJX in Florida as the Program Director.
I did hear preview of "I Need a Freak" on Andrew Wetherall's Fabric 19 CD. I Like the way it mixes into The Egyptian Lover – Freak-A-Holic track. I fact I e-mailed Andrew thru the Haywire website (www.haywire.co.uk)last nite. He didn't seem to have a site of his own. I also like the "If I Gave you a Party" remix by Syrup. The only other "I Need A Freak" remix release that I knew of was by rapper Too Short awhile back. To be honest with you I don't belive that Lynn is aware of all the remixes either.

there have been a few covers of 'i need a freak'. this one is a bootleg that adds new drums and extends it. there's at least another two cover versions of it apart from the one by too short but the artists names escape me just now.
copies of this pressing turned up in the shops recently.

Sorry to all the Laid Back/"White Horse" fans. You don't have to ride the white pony anymore. You also don't got to be a bitch, even if you wanna be rich.

It definitely is exciting, just in a different way. My issue with it is that the classic-to-dud ratio seems to be just a little lower than the first installment (I mean really, Barry Waite?).
