The official Mom's Apple Pie press biography:Mom's Apple Pie can be predated to its initial formation during August of 1970 as a group whose membership fluctuated in number, from six to eleven, presently ten musicians averaging nineteen years of age. All born and reared in Warren, Ohio, their individual backgrounds portray a perfect example of what constitutes an "all American boy" - thus originated the group's name, Mom's Apple Pie.
After several months of coordinating, arranging and forming a solid unit, Larry Patterson (the group's manager) booked a "demo" recording session in Cleveland with Kenneth Hamann, the recording engineer who had worked in the studio with Terry Knight on all of the now historic Grand Funk Railroad albums.
Without ever hearing another note of their music, Knight signed the group to recording and songwriting contracts with his new record company, Brown Bag Records. Ken Hamann was assigned the task of producing their debut LP, Mom's Apple Pie.
Roger Force continues the narrative:Next thing we know, there's Howard Beldock, Terry Knight's attorney, talking things over with Larry. We were back and forth in cars and soon enough we're sitting in Cleveland, the whole band, with our mouths dropped down to the ground as Larry tells us: "Terry is starting a record label, it's called Brown Bag - and he wants to sign you to a contract."
There's two or three meetings and next thing we're in New York, sitting in Terry Knight's office. Here comes Knight, he's walking up to us, with his salt & pepper hair and his big glasses and - I remember the exact words he said: "Here looks like a future bunch of rock stars if I ever saw 'em."
