A real tragedy.,
By
This review is from: Without You: The Tragic Story of "Badfinger" (Paperback)
Ther's nothing tragic about the book or the cd,both are an insight into a band who i feel never got the benefits they deserved.
If they had maybe we could enjoy seeing & hearing them live on stage today,instead we can only listen to them.Read this if you want an insight to how naivety and trust can be fatal in the literal sense.A very moving account. the cd is full of demo's etc and worth buying on it's own merits.Whether the tracks are available elsewhere i don't know.

Without You. Truly a tragic story.,

This review is from: Without You: Tragic Story of "Badfinger" (Paperback)
This really was an eye opener to the good but mostly the bad that can happen in the music recording industry.
Badfinger was a band that had so much potential, they would have gone right to the top of their game but for the evil greed of the individuals who controlled their destiny. So much wasted talent that the world was never going to be able to share. Badfinger is only now getting the recognition that they should have had at the time. This is such a well written book that gives not only an insight into the members of the band but also the people they came into contact with and those who should have helped them on their way to success. Highly recommended to anyone who followed Badfinger and still enjoys them today. What might have been....................
5.0 out of 5 stars
A stunning work,

This review is from: Without You: The Tragic Story of "Badfinger" (Paperback)
Everything you ever wanted to know about one of the most under-rated bands. An exhaustive work - stunning in detail and a riveting read. There is a lot of love and respect in this book. There is nothing more to learn! Highly recommended.
