Mom's Apple Pie
Origin Warren, Ohio, USA
Genre(s) Rock, Hard rock
Years active 1970-1974
Label(s) Brown Bag Records
Mom's Apple Pie was a ten-member US rock band from Warren, Ohio. They were best known for their album cover but also for the voice of the lead singer Bob Fiorino. The band released two albums: Mom's Apple Pie in 1971 and Mom's Apple Pie II in 1973. 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.[1] 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. Pia Knight, Terry's wife, overheard the demo being played in one of the rooms in the back of the studio and convinced her husband to sign the group.
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.[2] The cover was banned shortly upon the album's release and an alternate cover was released, making both versions highly sought-after among collectors.[citation needed] Their musicianship and overall sound have been compared to such bands as Blood Sweat and Tears and Chicago[citation needed].

Have a great week and saw the following quote ☺ "There is a point in life when you get tired of chasing everyone and trying to fix everything, but it's not giving up. It's realizing that you don't need certain people and their crap." ☺ ☺ ☺

So glad "Mom's Apple Pie's" first hit album will be offered soon on CD. Love the big band sound that is heaven to listen and dance to. Wish I had seen them at one of the big clubs or venues during the early 70s. Just a great group with consistent quality and enough talent for 5 bands.
A shout out to Larry Patterson, "Mom's Apple Pie" manager, who was smart enough to get them on Terry Knight's Brown Bag Records label. Hope you have much success with the CDs, Larry!
Oh, did I hear there is a 3rd album that was recorded and never marketed? Will that be released as a CD too? Looking forward to that!!!! Connie Smalls, manager for Canadian Rock and Roll Band, "FitZ."
I'm looking forward to the new CD of one of my favorite bands, "Mom's Apple Pie" from the 70s. I have their first album and love it. I have the alternative album cover, and want to know if the CD will come with a choice of risque artwork or the cleaner version. Just wondering. Love the band, love their manager too!!! Will buy it either way. Connie from Sharon, Pa.; a fan of the band
Mom's Apple Pie - "Mom's Apple Pie" (Brown Bag 1972)
Chicago's enormous success with their horn-driven rock in the '70s was naturally followed by several other bands who tried to hit it big with the same sound and formula. But many of them would remain in complete obscurity, and the ten-piece Mom's Apple Pie were among them. Their self-titled debut had all the right moves: good tunes, massive brass-arrangements along with organ, guitar and overall solid musicianship. Still, the success they sought never came. The record opens with a cover of Willie Dixon's well-known "I Just Wanna Make Love to You" that showcases the band's arrangements and musical skills very well, and this is probably the best version I've heard of this song. "Lay Your Money Down" has some spacey organ that is quite unusual to find in this genre, and also a nice jam where the bass has one of the main roles. My favourite here is probably "Good Days", a tasty ballad with lots of flute and gorgeous vocal-harmonies. And the beat and rhythm of the track is quite ballsy for being a ballad. Keyboardist Dave Mazzochi was obviously one of the main songwriters in the group, and also knew just how to use the right sounds on his organ. "People" varies between a quiet and mellow verse and over into a more powerful a rocking chorus, while "Dawn of a New Day" and "Happy Just to Be" are cheerful rockers very typical for this style of '70s brass rock. "Secret of Life" is probably the weakest song on the record. By all means, it's not bad at all, but perhaps a bit anonymous among the other and better songs. The closer "Mr. Skin" is a song packed with so many catchy hooks that it really had deserved to be a hit for the band, and remains one of the very best from the album. If you're into bands like Lighthouse and the earlier mentioned Chicago, then "Mom's Apple Pie" will be just your thing.
