Badfinger were one of the first groups signed to the Beatles’ new record label, Apple, in the late 1960s. In a previous incarnation, they were known as The Iveys and had enjoyed a moderate hit in Europe with the song Maybe Tomorrow. Badfinger’s new association with The Beatles at that time gave them great kudos and access to a pool of talent and resources that most artists would have given their eye teeth for.

The Finest ELO Songs On Out Of The Blue

A series of bands following The Beatles who decided to occupy the similar environs of melodic pop have largely been disregarded by many inhabitants of the mainstream music press. One of those melodic pop collectives who I believe have been unfairly overlooked in this respect is ELO, the band taken to prominence in the 70s and early 80s by Birmingham songwriter and performer Jeff Lynne. I would consider the 1978 album ‘Out Of The Blue’ to be their best work and there are several songs on there that could seriously be considered amongst their finest.

Rockabilly’s Essence Is As Elusive As It Is Compelling

I’ve often said that there’s something about rockabilly music. Something that just makes you feel good. It makes you want to move when you hear it. It picks you up and makes you smile. But as often as I’ve said that, I’m not sure I’ve ever been able to successfully describe what that “something” is. What is it that makes rockabilly so wonderful?

My All Time Favourite 10cc Songs

I first came across 10cc around 1973, not long after they’d had their first UK number one with the song Rubber Bullets. I thought they were American, judging by the lead vocalist’s falsetto on that memorable hit, but soon discovered they were from Manchester in the north of England. I was re-acquainted with them when they were the subject of an ITV Schools Programme in 1974, when the recording session for the song The Dean And I was filmed.

With his good looks, women all over the nation were enamored with him, and the tough guy image that he put forth gave many young men something to identify with.
