A third album was recorded but never released. Their manager was Larry Patterson and they recorded on a label owned by Terry
Knight, Brown Bag Records. The band enjoyed a successful career nationally and toured extensively across the U.S. Venues
included a wide array of college campuses, clubs, concert halls, the Whiskey A-Go-Go in Los Angeles and Madison Square
Garden. They performed with such artists as the Doobie Brothers and David Bowie. Larry Patterson, the manager of Mom’s Apple
Pie, booked the demo session with producer Kenny Hamann at the Cleveland Recording Company and signed the group with
Terry Knight.
Both albums have become favorites among collectors, due in part to the self-titled first album’s risque cover artwork. Some
observers commented that the album cover contained a hidden image of a vagina. The cover was banned shortly upon the
album’s release and an alternate cover was released, making both versions highly sought-after among collectors. Their
musicianship and overall sound have been compared to such bands as Blood Sweat and Tears and Chicago.
