Freak Power


Freak Power was a band founded by bassist Norman Cook, Ashley Slater, and vocalist Jesse Graham, also known as "the Bass Cadet." Their music was a mix of acid jazz, funk, soul, and trip hop. Although not credited, the London-based session bass player Dale Davis recorded bass and guitar on their debut album Drive-Thru Booty.

Discography

The single "Turn On, Tune In, Cop Out" was a minor hit on the UK Singles Chart when released in 1993. There was renewed interest in the track after TV exposure in the 1995 Levi's jeans television advert "Taxi" directed by Baillie Walsh.
The band released two albums: Drive-Thru Booty in 1994 and More of Everything for Everybody in 1996. The debut album featured the hit singles "Turn On, Tune In, Cop Out" and "Rush", released on 4th and Broadway. The title of the former is a play on Timothy Leary's "Turn on, tune in, drop out".
"Song #6" from the band's follow-up album was featured in the 2004 movie Code 46.
