The producers, satisfied with the result, asked Sorrentino to record "Changes of Mind" for the B side, a song that he and drummer Mike Micara had written for their current band.

At that time, I had been playing with Joey Stann and the late George Ruiz at an upper-Manhattan club called Churchill's Plum.

"[1] The new band appeared on American Bandstand on March 11, 1972, performing "White Lies" and "Willpower Weak, Temptation Strong."

Although the group toured for two years and recorded three more singles, only "Willpower Weak, Temptation Strong," another Lambert and Flax song, broke into the Billboard Top 100.

Micara went on to record and tour with Gary U.S. Bonds and play drums on film soundtracks before changing careers to public-school teaching.
