I didn't like this album. Only songs i like on here are Fantastic Voyage & Your Love Is On The One. I like the album cover & the picture inside the album of them standing on a boat. I like their Untouchables album though. The songs i like on there are Raid, Turn The Music Up, Untouchable, Tinsel Town Theory.

I love the song, but I have it on my IPod. Did they also sing "It's All the Way Live"? I noticed that the song "Fantastic Voyage" was sampled into Coolio's "Fantastic Voyage". That's kinda strange.:eek:

Yeah Lakeside sang All The Way Live. Coolio sampled that also for his song of the same name.

Liked this album. Wasn't great, but it will do.

Fantastic Voyage is a very well put together song- I like the rap and the melody and the whole vibe of the thing from start to finish. It's one of those tunes that I like even more now than when it was on the charts. I really don't know much about Lakeside's other records though. This is the type of song that should have at least been nominated for a grammy or something but although it was ( I believe) the 10th biggest soul single of 1981 it only got to something like #79 on the Hot 100. Coolio's version hit the pop top 10, but his lukewarm rendition sucks in comparison.

Jamesanthony, as I always say. "Fantastic Voyage" by Lakeside hit #15 in New York City on WABC's survey back in March 1981. Coolio's rap version hit the top 10 back in the mid-90's.

I didn't know this. I guess because NYC has more black and latino listeners per capita than the country on the whole the "pop" radio charts would have more r&b type songs. I remember that one pop station had Stephanie Mills' I Have Learned to Respect the Power of Love and Shirley Jones' Do You Get Enough Love in its top 40 in 1986 yet I don't think either of these tunes ever made the Billboard Hot 100 at all. Another song like that was Atomic Dog by George Clinton. That song was always on the radio in NYC in 1983, and I was very suprised to learn years later that it never made the Billboard Hot 100.
