Badfinger formed in Swansea, Wales, originally as The Iveys, which became the first group signed by the Beatles' Apple label in 1968. The band renamed themselves Badfinger, and recorded five albums for Apple, two for Warner Bros., and toured extensively. Like many bands, they recorded many radio sessions featuring cover versions not released on record and alternative arrangements of album and single tracks. 'The Lost Broadcasts' features the best of The Iveys' and Badfinger's late sixties radio sessions. As with many lost recordings from this period some tracks have been included for their historical significance do not represent the usual sound quality of studio recordings. However, the majority of the recordings on this disc sound great and are a must for any fan of this much missed band. TRACKS:01. Respect (The Iveys)02. Just One Look (The Iveys)03.
