Lon & Derrek Van Eaton Warm Woman/ More Than Words (Apple Records, APPLE 46, 1972)
These American brothers were signed by George Harrison and recorded one album for Apple Records (Brother).
Although George believed in the brothers and thought they would be huge, in reality the boys produced a pleasantly innocuous record much like later Dark Horse recordings by Jiva, Attitudes and Splinter that George would be involved in.
Few bought this single (a second track, Sweet Music, from Brothers was also released as a single with the same effect) and it's not hard to see why.
This music was so NOT what was happening on the charts in 1972 it's laughable.
Hidden gem: Well that may be stretching it but the B side is a better bet than the dirge like A side. I can hear why George liked it - it sounds like him!
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence - ROBERT FRIPP. Information is not knowledge; knowledge is not wisdom; wisdom is not truth; truth is not beauty; beauty is not love; love is not music; MUSIC IS THE BEST - FRANK ZAPPA. I think we're a little happier when we have a little music in our lives - STEVE JOBS. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe - LAO TZU. Rock and Roll is fire, man. FIRE. - DAVID BRIGGS. Music grips you, gets into your soul - GEORGE MARTIN
