Badfinger Doc 2 of 6

God I love "Come And Get It. It is so damn catchy. And if you know the first part of the song you know the whole song. Just incredible.

[Geddajunior]

Great upload man....I never knew this band n they gotta new fan.....wow so many good songs...I have heard a couple but didnt know who sang them. Awesome band n sad about the poor two dudes who killed themselves...poor guys

[Wilde202]

Ivey love these guys!

[1FineYoungCannibal]

Personally i find Come And Get It a bit repetitive...i wonder what Badfinger would have done to it if they had had been given the freedom.

[estyle40]

@1FineYoungCannibal Let me guess.......you`re a Lennon fan. LOL. I am, too, but as a bass player myself, they come no better that McCartney. They might have still been playin clubs had it not been for the man.

What Tony Visconti says is so true "the voices were remarkably like the Beatles". For many years I thought Day After Day was a Beatles song!

[TuberOnTheLoose]

I noticed when they showed the Apple record label for Come and Get It the composer was listed only as McCartney. The Beatles were still together at this point. Is this the first example of the end of John and Paul's agreement to always credit their compositions as Lennon-McCartney?

[432F01]

Lenno wanted to call them the Prix? That crazy bastard. Har, har, har.

[cbc51]

@432F01 Well, he really couldn't care one way or the other...because he didn't even want them on the label.

[ToySoldier2007]

Tom's early songs are killer and singing with Pete was magical ... like the Beatles ... great voice - hands down !

[07504201963]

in fact,the liverpool band 'focal point' were the first band signed to apple. nevertheless,badfinger are boss.

[ceterceter]

@07504201963 Was correct - signed to Apple Records. Focal Point was publishing contract. Refer to great Apple publishing CD's out there and Badfinger book (if you can find it).

Ron Griffiths is a great guy. Search for the Badfinger convention on Google. You can hear him sing "Come And Get It". It was a great tribute since he was played and sang on the song. All of Magic Christian Music is The Iveys with Ron!

[Jethrofinger]

Yeah, I remember reading Ron said that Paul had auditioned all of the four members and told Ron he sounded like the singer of the Troggs lol!

[cooljim70]

can i ask who is Ron Griffiths?

[ozarkdem]

Ron Griffiths is such a fun guy in this video. Tommy's vocals are incredible.

[Trevor1050]

Griffiths wasn't in Badfinger

[ozarkdem]

Griffiths was in the Iveys and early Badfinger. Watch the whole documentary.

[iworkforme]

mcartney fucked them

[JunkMales]

If giving a relatively unknown band a sure-fire No. 1 hit is "fucking them" then sure, McCartney fucked them big time!

[cbak12sg]

Don't know where it was a no 1. It certainly wasn't in the UK or US.

[danguitar142]
