From Wikipedia:  Every Mother's Son was an American sunshine pop band formed in New York City in 1966. Coming from a folk rock background situated in Greenwich Village, the group scored their only Top 40 hit "Come On Down to My Boat" in 1967. Following their brief commercial success, Every Mother's Son achieved lesser fortunes with songs such as "Put Your Mind at Ease" and "Pony with the Golden Mane", and recorded two studio albums before disbanding in 1968. 
The nucleus of Every Mother's Son formed in early 1966, when brothers Larry (vocals, guitar) and Dennis Larden (vocals, guitar) met Bruce Milner (organ, piano) at a Greenwich Village nightclub. The Larden brothers had previous experience playing four years together as a folk duo for engagements in Greenwich Village's burgeoning music scene.
MGM Records signed the group as a clean-cut alternative to the 1960s counterculture.  Because the group was signed to MGM, not only did the band appear on several nationally televised programs to promote the single, they also were featured in a two-part episode of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (series 3) entitled "The Five Daughters Affair", the combined episodes were also released as the movie "The Karate Killers".  
In 1968 work commenced on a third album; however, the group disbanded by the end of the year.  
One member, Bruce Milner, is now a dentist in both Manhattan, New York and Woodstock.
