The Beatles loved Grapefruit so much that they signed them to their Apple Music Publishing Company. John Lennon
even suggested the band's name.
George Alexander (the brother of George Young of The Easybeats) was the leader, joined by John Perry and brothers
Pete and Geoff Swettenham, formerly of Tony Rivers & The Castaways.
The fruity ones enjoyed a hit single with 'Dear Delilah' in 1968 and their debut album 'Around Grapefruit', acclaimed
for its orchestral arrangements and vocal harmonies.
'Deep Water', Grapefruit's second album, was released in 1969 and marked a seismic switch towards soul, rock and
country influences.
