AllMusic...
A band who expertly mixed sweet and satisfying melodies with potent guitar crunch, Badfinger were one of the best and most celebrated precursors to the power pop movement of the 1970s. Mentored by the Beatles and signed to their Apple label, Badfinger's best work faintly resembled their patrons, while the guitar work of Pete Ham and Joey Molland gave much of their catalog a hard rock edge that set them apart and 1970's No Dice and 1971's Straight Up showed they knew how to write songs and play them with spirit and energy. They were Apple's most successful act besides the Beatles, but when Apple ran into financial trouble, the group's fortunes took an unfortunate turn, and while 1974's Wish You Were Here (recorded for Warner Bros.) confirmed they still had plenty of great songs left in them, bad luck and predatory business deals took a tragic toll on a great band.
