This group also has a tragic side; the suicide of two of its founding members! Stop by and learn why BadÆ’inger is still influencing music today.

Joey Molland
There are few bands in the annals of rock music as star-crossed in their history as BadÆ’inger. Pegged as one of the most promising British groups of the late '60s and the one world-class talent ever signed to the Beatles' Apple Records label that remained with the label, BadÆ’inger enjoyed the kind of success in England and America that most other bands could only envy. Yet a string of memorable hit singles -- Come and Get It, No Matter What, Day After Day, and Baby Blue -- saw almost no reward from that success. Instead, four years of hit singles and international tours precipitated the suicides of its two creative members and legal proceedings that left lawyers as the only ones enriched by the group's work.

The Concert for Bangladesh
BadÆ’inger is well represented in this re-release. Here Comes The Sun with George Harrison and Pete Ham is a highlight for me. Throughout the video, Mike can be seen quite often back in with the singers, next to Ringo on tambourine. Tom Evans, Pete Ham and Joey Molland are sitting/standing off to the right side of the screen and can be seen from time to time.
George Harrison organized this spectacular concert on August 1, 1971 at New York's Madison Square Garden to help and aid the people from Bangladesh with all the money raised destined to that cause. Along with Harrison the concert features Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Billy Preston, Leon Rusell, Klaus Voormann, BadÆ’inger and an Indian music section by Ravi Shankar and a set by the legendary Bob Dylan.
