Sex Police - Will - 1992
from the Scuffcakes Goods cd "Second String"

After the demise of the Pressure Boys, head Pressure Boy John Plymale teamed up with former Notes From A Strange Mailbag's Norwood Cheek to form the much more rockin' Sex Police. In 1991 they released their debut "Medallion" on Moist/Baited Breath which had several fun moments including "Elevator", "Hectors", and "Amanda Falls". Their strength truly lay in their live shows which became their calling card. With the addition of Robert Jones on trombone their sound grew even bigger and they recorded "Second String". In honor of my new son being born I thought it only fitting to use "Will". My son's full name is William Roane Slawter.

Band Members:
John Plymale - Vocals, Guitar
Norwood Cheek - Vocals, Bass
Jody Maxwell (Shoney) - Drums
Jay Widenhouse - Trumpet
Robert Jones - Trombone
