This band was actually from my hometown of Swansea, Wales. If you have the time, I highly suggest digging into their story, it’s one of the most interesting and very possibly the saddest in music history. They’re one of the most under-discussed bands of their era.
Their story is so tragic. I think people avoid talking about them because it's just so horrible what happened. But their music was so damn good.
@@sourisvoleur4854 I feel the same way. It’s so dreadfully sad that people just don’t bring it up. With how their management financially screwed them over, how death continued to awfully linger within the band even after Pete Ham’s passing, it’s an unbelievable story, the kind you sometimes only see in movies, but it’s also understandable why people don’t want to talk about it. It’s not exactly the most fun conversation to have. They created some of the greatest music in the world in my opinion, but their whole story, the tales behind it all…wow.
I'm going with 'saddest'. That theiving manager killed Pete and Tom. He should have been dawn and quartered.
You nailed it!
@@fridaylong2812 Don’t even get me started on Stan Polley. There have been some scummy managers throughout music history. Colonel Tom Parker is actually the most perfect example in this context. If he hadn’t overworked and over-stressed Elvis Presley in the ways that he did, Elvis might still be here today. And if Stan Polley had never come along, Pete Ham and Tom Evans would still be here, probably touring alongside Joey Molland. But in both of the cases I’ve mentioned, sadly, they all ended badly. The corruption, cruelty and carelessness in the music industry runs deep, even to this day.
I'll never ever forget first listening to Badfinger, with their first song "Come & Get It", all the way to the end. I was overjoyed that this song played such an important part in the series finale of an American classic TV show - "Breaking Bad". The very title was a main subject of the show. When this song came on just at the end, I actually got a tear in my eye. Perfect song.
Come and Get It written by Paul McCartney
This was the perfect song for the end of breaking bad!
Only a tear?….i was balling when this song came on in that episode……so great
I'll always link Come and Get It with The Magic Christian
I'll never hear this song without thinking of the finale of Breaking Bad. It was simply perfect and as soon as you heard it, you knew it was all over. It left you with this horrible, wonderful, bittersweet feeling that resonated on so many levels. The show and this beautiful love song created a synergy that was powerful and transcendent. Kudos to whoever made the decision to end the series with this song...genius.
I grew up with Badfinger. Great Band! Don't Know anything about Breaking Bad. Never saw the show.
@@markhaus2830 I grew up hearing this song as well, but after seeing Breaking Bad, it became truly iconic. I would recommend Breaking Bad to anyone who hasn't seen it....definitely worth the watch.
Love this band, so many great songs,sad ending. Their songs are etched in my brain. Happy and sad at the same time.
This is such a great song, but I haven’t heard it for such a long time I’ve almost forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder. ☮️
The ascending & descending guitar part is the strength of this song. That guitar tone is sublime
Love this group. Badfinger were a Welsh rock band from the 60's-80's. They became the first group signed by the Beatles' Apple label. Paul & George wrote & produced a few songs for them. They had some really big hits such as "Come & Get It", "No Matter What", "Day After Day", "Baby Blue" & "Without You". This group had quite a sad history. The band had bad mismanagement & lost most of their money, two members committed suicide & one died of a brain aneurysm.
Their manager reminds me of the Beatles manager Brian Epstein, I believe he was guilty of the same thing.
So sad. Ripped off by manager.
I have said it a thousand times, they should make a movie about this band. The story is amazing and yet so tragic
This song is from the album, Straight Up. It was produced by George Harrison until he was called away for another project and Harrison asked Todd Rundgren to take over as producer. The album is fantastic, other songs to check out: Take It All, Day After Day, and my favorite, Perfection. Great reaction Harri!
Great suggestions!
@@tombeyerlein3813 Thanks!
@@ohfour-seven6228 Name of the Game is another great deep cut by Pete Ham. Imagine the great stuff he might have written if not for his untimely death.
@@tombeyerlein3813 Another great choice. Actually anything from that album is highly recommended. Yes, RIP Pete.
This song and The Raspberries Go All The Way was on constant rotation back then.
Underrated band with songs that will be played for much longer than most music you hear today.
This song is somewhere in my top 20 best rock song compositions ever. Impeccably and timelessly beautiful
I saw them at college in 1971, before all of their troubles. They were pop music at its best. Plus, they had a left-handed drummer.
Lovin some Badfinger edit Pete ham stated that it was about a girl he met while on tour in the the US. After he went back home he was overwhelmed with responsibilities, and she thought he forgot her. He's assuring her otherwise. And YES Harri, Paul wrote their first hit song, but it was George that worked with them, even playing on a couple songs on this album.
It wasn't Paul or George who pushed for them to be signed, it was Mal Evans, the Beatles' road manager/assistant. He and Peter Asher, who at the time was the head of A & R for Apple, were invited to a show by Badfinger's manager (at the time they were still known as The Iveys). After seeing them play Evans went to all four of the Beatles to convince them to sign them. Paul ended up writing their first hit, 'Come And Get It'. He wrote it specifically for them. He recorded a demo, which is out here on RUclips, and told them to make it sound lust like the demo, which they did. George did some producing on the Straight Up album, after The Beatles had broken up, as well as playing slide guitar on 'Day After Day'.
What a great song. Baby Blue is one of my favourites by these guys. Thanks.
Signed in 1968 by the Beatles Apple label. Multiple tragedies struck down this super talented group.
This song brought tears to my eyes, I was 12 when this came out along with all their other gems, just thinking what happened to to this great band, it was so the sound of the 70"s, I miss that music that brings a happy smile on your soul. Pretty good for '71 eh what about all the absolutely iconic albums that came out in that year, not to mention 'T. Rex' Electric Warrior, still my favourite Album of all time. Hi, from Australia
This is from their 4th studio album produced by Todd Rundren and released on Apple Records.
It had a resurgence in 2013 after it appeared in series finale of "Breaking Bad" having 5300 downloads the night of the broadcast.
Beautiful song, very heavy degrees of Beatle sounds. Always loved it.
Great reaction Harri.💍💍 Thanks Harri and Craig. Excellent choice. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
You’re welcome!
Never was a big Breaking Bad fan, but when this tune came on at the finale of BB, my mind was officially blown. Thanks.
I freaking love this song. Have you heard there incredibly beautiful song, day after day? I think it's from around the same era.
Several subscribers have already commented about this tune being used in the finale of "Breaking Bad." The use of the song in the background as the last show reached it's apex is so overwhelming perfect, you'd almost think the creators of the show started with the song and then worked backwards and created a backstory from that ending moment. The best use of a song with a tv show or move in history, in my opinion.
Great song. Always a joy Hari.
Baby blue is one of my favorite songs
Great harmonies by Tom Evans. RIP Tom, Pete & Mike 💔
so good and need more recognition...incredibly heart felt, talented and deserving of our cosmic walk of fame since that's where they are anyway...but no, sooo good...
I loved this band from the very first time I heard one of their songs. Although I didn’t think about it at the time, they are definitely “Beatlesesque” (yes, I went there and invented a strange sounding word)😂. Regardless of their similarity to my all time favorite Fab Four, they just sound wonderful and their story is very sad. Thanks to Craig Aust for this one. It’s been too long since I heard them. 🌺✌️
Killer tune, Craig!
This song is absolutely perfect
I listened to Day after Day for years, not knowing the fate of the lead singer/writer. It is heartbreaking what happened to this band. I listen now to keep the memory alive. God bless their familles.
One of the best songs ever period!
Damn, this was one of our driving songs. My buddy Larry had this on 8-track and we listened to it constantly in grade 11. Loved this reaction. You really nailed it, Harri!
The final song heard in the TV series, "Breaking Bad"!
I had forgotten that, but you’re right.
Todd Rundgren produced this one.
Yeah they got a lot of airplay back in the day in the US. Several hits I remember.
They are so good,we listen to them still❤❤
I think George Harrison was probably tighter with Badfinger as he included them as part of the stage band for the Concert for Bangla Desh. Harrison also played the guitar solo on the Badfinger song, Day After Day.
Harri - this was cool! I'm freakishyly old, so I remember Badfinger as a "radio band". Then a friend of mine gave me a best of Badfinger CD for my birthday and I sort of realised what an awesome band they were!
Badfinger had Beatles inspiration all over everything...
Beautiful song
Loved the song and the group
Tragic story. Beautiful music.
This was my Dad's and my favorite song, and since I lost him almost three years ago, I listen to it every day.
Watching the breaking bad finale, and this song came on, wow the memories came flooding back.
One great rock song and band of all time great live band
This song is what I'd call early Beatlesque. I would have loved to have heard her response. I read they did sell 14 million albums.
Tom Evans hits McCartney notes on those harmonies. Crazy vocal range. McCartney wrote Badfinger's first hit, Come and Get It. George did some production and slide guitar for them. The best vocal combination HAM/EVANS after Lennon/McCartney in my opinion. You should check out a live version of this.
Joey Molland, the sole surviving member of Badfinger, lives in Minneapolis, MN
It was also used as the sign off song for the series, "Breaking Bad." I actually teared up watching that and hearing this gem.
Such a great band, but a lot of tragedy unfortunately.please give them more reactions Harri!! Staying Cool & Staying Safe 🤘🎵
They actually sound like they have some characteristics of the Beatles. I'm enjoying your reviews.
Fantastic.
This brings back memories of my school days crush. I was 15 the year it came out. Thanks Harri!
Badfinger created the power Pop, that dozens of other bands adopted, including the very talented Smokie
One of the last 45s I purchased. This song is a winner and i cannot hear this without thinking of the last episode of Breaking Bad. Keep’em coming!
More Badfinger please
Yes they were on Apple. When they had to leave Pete Hamm wrote Apple of my eye for the label.
Great choice. One of the best songs ever
Rock puro 👌🎵🎶
Takes me back to high school.
Another great song by Them. Played Their music all the time. Very underrated. Tragic story of Pete Ham and the group. Loved Them.
It sucks getting old but I'm fortunate to have grown up in the seventies for so many reasons. Love the reaction my friend.
Their best album is WISH YOU WERE HERE. But there are great tunes and performances on all of their albums. Fabulous performers and songwriters who had more bad luck than pretty much any other band, with Moby Grape and It's a Beautiful Day coming in close behind. Listen to one of the two "medleys" on WISH YOU WERE HERE -- terrific stuff!
I remember first hearing them on Vh1s BEHIND THE MUSIC.
Badfinger deserved a better fate, both musically and personally. All of them were great musicians and Pete Ham and Tom Evans were good song writers. Like the Beatles, they were not good businessmen and it took a toll on their personal life. Pete Ham committed suicide followed by Tom Evans some years later. Some say the final straw for them was the rights to the song "Without You", which they co-wrote and was a later hit by Harry Nillson. I'm sure it was alot deeper than that.
Harry, you got it exactly right -- it was Paul & George. Paul generously gave them his "Come and Get It" as their debut, and George played guitar on their superb "Day by Day." Well done.
They have a lot of good songs on the Warner Brother label that they were on. Song for a lost friend, lonely you, shine on there’s a whole bunch of great Badfinger material on the Warner Brother label. Song for lost friend is my favorite the ending is awesome.
Another great fem on the Apple label from Badfinger is Apple of my eye on their last Apple album called ass
I can still remember the way this song made me feel when I was a young girl -- 12..13... listening to it on the radio and hearing these lyrics and wondering about the meaning of love and rock n roll
Badfinger was so very talented. Yet their final story is so horribly sad. These Apple recordings are outstanding! I never turn their songs off when I come across them on the radio. Thanks for posting Harri!
That is correct The Beatles loved this band and brought them on their label. You mentioned Smokie. Their only hit here was 'Living Next to Alice." But they were a great band and they had other, better really, tunes that were big in the UK and Europe in general. I adore the lead singer who also did a duet with Susie Quatro.
There was a lot of talk back then that this really was the Beatles.
Always a favorite from a cursed group
If I had 5 songs to take to a desert island that would be one of them !
Walter White’s Swan song. Hit the charts again immediately after the Breaking bad finale.
They were so good, had one of the greatest songs ever 'Without You' (you know, "can't liiiiive, if living is without you") but a very sad story due to bad management and misrepresentation, from Wales they went into the US market, very naive and were screwed over, time after time, leading to the suicide of two members ultimately. There's a documentary on YT, really sad.
My brother had Come and Get It on a 45. Listened to it often as a kid. It's a shame what happened to Badfinger, they were a really good group.
Man, Craig Aust, but yiu request some GREAT music. Love your requests...if you can request this hidden gem of a song, then you are the man!!! Beatles sure knew what they were doing, day after day LOL!!!
Actually your correct, it was Paul and he even gave them a song he wrote ‘Come and get it’
brilliant
I've always loved this guitar riff.
Harry these guys wrote some great songs get into their catalog you won’t be sorry, that why the Beatles sighted them they were extremely talented
It was Paul that wrote the first hit song the band would have "Come And Get It", and George produced some of the album Straight Up, which is the album Baby Blue is on. There are some real gems on that album
Love this band, and especially this song. As others have mentioned, the band has a sad story including unscrupulous actions of their former manager Stan Polley which led to the band not really making money on any of their mega hits and led to the suicides of lead singer and main songwriter Pete Ham and Bassist (and lead singer on "Come and Get It") Tom Evans. Later, drummer Mike Gibbins died of a brain aneurysm, leaving guitarist Joey Molland as the sole surviving member (he's the guy at the far left of the photo you used for the audio track of this song).
Ooh this jam calls for smoking more dank buds 🔥🔥🔥🔥🌍
I'm such a huge fan of their music. I always wonder what could have been if they had been managed better. So when I do listen to this it does somehow make me sad. Their story is such a tragic one.
Badfinger...the kings of "what could have been." Bad management, bad timing, and bad endings.
Band name was not great either.
@@coocoocachooglin Named after an early working title for "With a Little Help from my Friends" when Lennon had hurt his finger.
can't listen to this song now without thinking of the show breaking bad
Yes, they were at Apple. Their song "Come And Get It" was written by McCartney who played all the instruments on the demo. He then handed them the demo telling them to play it exactly like the demo and they would have a hit single...and he was right.
Also, back when they were first signed, they had a different name before Badfinger. I don't know if it's a rock 'n' roll myth or a true story, but the original working title for "A Little Help From My Friends" was "Badfinger Boogie" which, in theory, was what they took their name from.
They were first known as The Iveys.
@@mikeanton9125 Thanks for the info.
What happened to this band and two of its members is the saddest ad most tragic story in music history 😥😥
Without You was Their song first.
Peace
It never got the plays it deserved. But in the Seventies there was fierce competition for air time so that could have been part of it.
I dated the lead singer of Badfinger, Kevan Michaels, who replaced Pete Hamm, after he tragically died by suicide. This song was written by Pete about his girlfriend Dixie and the separation that being on tour does to romantic relationships. Kevan was only 17 at the time...Paul McCartney discovered him at a pub in Boston. He wrote an entire rock opera based on Dracula that survived on reel to reel tape. It was spectacular and never published due to record producers rejecting it in 1972 because "Tommy" had just been released by The Who and considered a one off. Tragic.
I can assure you that nobody called Kevan Michaels was ever in Badfinger.
Ir was George who loved theses welsh boys
Speaking of Smokie, you should do “Living Next Door to Alice”
It was George 😺
......and Paul you nailed it
Great reaction to one of the greatest songs ever!! It's a pity that reactors choose the album version instead of the radio "hit" version. The single version has much more powerful drums, & the lead guitar is slightly up in the mix - which it should be. In fact, all over the internet, people choose the album version to examine for some reason. The single version is now called "the US single mix - which is misleading. This mix was released worldwide except for the UK.
This song is so sad, considering what later happened to the band.
Great band with such a sad story... two suicides by main members due to unfulfilled promises.
Watch George Harrison's concert for Bangladesh to see him utilize Bad Finger as a terrific backing band. Pete Hamm does a duet with Harrison on "Here Comes The Sun" with both his and George's guitars in total sync... just perfect.
Take me back to Karns High School 🥺🥺😳
Album was called 'Straight up' Harrison produced this & several others even played slide guitar with Pete Hamm. 2 of the band hung themselves after losing everything to an American creep~.
This band has a very tragic story. A few members committed suicide, they were screwed over by their manager........
