In this episode we discuss the first artist signed to Apple Records, singer/songwriter/guitarist Jackie Lomax. Lomax had all the stars aligned for success--he knew the Beatles well, Brian Epstein was interested in signing him, his only album on Apple Records ("Is This What You Want?") featured some great musicians, but his career never really took off. Hear us discuss the album, Lomax's background, and speculate about why he didn't make it big.
