Description

Badfinger is heralded as the seminal power pop band. And while they had all the ingredients needed to be a successful rock band (including catching the attention of the Beatles and being the first band signed to their Apple label), monetary and sustained commercial success eluded them largely due to the nefarious business practices of their manager. This album, the last of the classic line up, finds the band honing their skills and branching out into new directions, but still retaining their signature pop melodies and remarkable playing. Find out more about Wish You Were Here and about the tragedy Badfinger ultimately faced after releasing the album.
