Comment:

As the jacket of their biography states succinctly, "Never in the history of rock has there been a story more tragic than that of Badfinger." From their earliest days of being sponsored by the Fab Four (whose shadow they unfairly never effectively ditched), they struggled with horrible mismanagement and a lack of critical recognition, culminating in the suicides of their two principal members, the legendary Pete Ham and Tom Evans. There are a ton of other songs that I wanted to include, as always, but space ran out. Last cuts: "Money", "It's Over", "Keep Your Country Tidy" and "Passed Fast".

Badfinger is sorely underrated in my humble view. Nice to see them represented in your single artist series. Of course, you didn't include one of my faves "Dennis" from the much underapreciated gem of a record--Wish You Were Here. But can't complain about this mix.
