Badfinger's Best Links on YouTube!Webmaster Brando has on his Badfinger page collected links to Badfinger videos on Youtube. An easy way to get an overview of the best of what is available. Great idea!
"New" Pete Ham Song Available
A very rare Pete Ham song has been put up for listening on peteham.net. The song, "John Forgot to Sing", is a gospel-type song; very melodic and moving. Both lyrically and musically it sounds like it was intended to be a Christmas tune. Pete is accompanied by Tom Evans on harmony vocals and acoustic guitar. Discrete strings seem to have been overdubbed. Sound quality is surprisingly good; especially on the vocals and the guitar. The song was recorded around 1969-70
Badfinger Live on New DVDBadfinger's 1973 live performance of No Matter What has been released as part of a DVD subscription series of "Burt Sugarman's The Midnight Special Legendary Performances."
