OTM: Ep #21 - Badfinger
Manage episode 319955674 series 2963509
The story of Badfinger is one of triumph that quickly descends into a spiral of despair. A small band from Wales, they were touring around the UK performing Motown and Beatles covers until they were picked up by The Beatles themselves and became the first non-Beatles recording artist signed to their newly formed Apple Records. Paul McCartney gave the group their first big hit single "Come and Get It", and the rest of the members helped to boost their career. They would turn out more hit songs like "No Matter What", "Day After Day", and "Without You". However, this success would leave as quickly as it came in a contract gone wrong that would have devastating losses. Listen along with me as we talk about the fame and tragedies that befell Badfinger.
