Badfinger lip-sync performance of a song from the film The Magic Christian. Their first big hit, written and produced by Paul McCartney. Band known for No Matter What, Without You, Day After Day and Baby Blue.
Power Pop originators - Raspberries, Jellyfish, Big Star all followed. They opened the door for pop music again after the blues revival of 1969 killed off a lot of melodicism. With proper handling could have been huge.

Great song.
Great band.
A very good year ... 1970.
A great era in pop / rock music.
From one who was there.

@ZeroMinus007 Tom was an earlier replacement, wasn't he? I mean, earlier compared to Joe Molland, who joined the group actually after this song was recorded and released, I think. Tom had been with Badfinger for a few years by the time of this song, isn't that right? You say Tom picked up bass when Ron left. Was Tom on guitar before he was on bass? If so, he was certainly talented, playing both instruments and being a really good vocalist too, and being composer of some of their songs too.

It would have been nicer if Pete was facing the camera so we could see his face. Great song by a talented band who didn't deserve what happened to them. I really like Tom's voice and he sure was a cutie back then! I agree that Joey is a jerk, twat etc.

I'm a Badfinger fan, but couldn't Tom atleast look like his playing the bass correctly? I know Tom picked up bass when Ron left... and thats Ron's bassline on the studio version here

@hellosuzie123 I was just thinking the same thing...amazing how much he does!
-
I like how the guitarist is strumming a Gibson SG (a very scratchy, dirty sounding guitar) and NO guitar is to be heard XD

Joey reminds me of Paul McCartney
