Release
After moving back to the United States from Cornwall, England in 1978 and settling in Woodstock, New York, twenty-three-year-old VanWarmer signed to local label Bearsville Records. A year later Warmer was released and produced by Del Newman. It was initially released on vinyl, 8-track, and cassette, and in 1995 it was released on compact disc. "Just When I Needed You Most" was written by VanWarmer when he was eighteen and still in England, and the song has been described as "a ballad of heartbreak from a man's point of view." It reached No. 4 on Billboard in 1979.
Promotion
By December 1980, VanWarmer toured in Europe to support the release of Warmer, as well as Japan and Hong Kong.
Reception
A brief review in a 1979 issue of Billboard compares VanWarmer's style of singing on Warmer to that of The Bee Gees, and although the writer felt the album lacked diversity, "Just When I Needed You Most" was regarded as a good cut. According to The Guinness Encyclopedia of Popular Music, "Just When I Needed You Most" was the song VanWarmer was "best remembered for."
