   About Badfinger
BADFINGER was a rock/pop band formed in Swansea, Wales in the early 1960s. Originally called THE IVEYS, they became the true initiator of the "Power-Pop" genre which started following the British Merseybeat onslaught of the early/mid 60s, converging to Psych-Pop, and then emptying into the Blues-oriented revival at the tail-end of the decade. In 1970, it was Badfinger who revived harmonious melodic rock with a decisive new crunch through their single release of "No Matter What." The song was universally accepted into the mainstream and became a worldwide smash. "Come And Get It" had been their precursor hit, but despite its quality, Paul McCartney's hand in writing the song had lessened their credibility somewhat. But with their ensuing 45s "Day After Day" and "Baby Blue", in addition to the Global Number One hit Ham/Evans composition "Without You," as covered by Harry Nilsson, this had cemented the group as projected up-and-coming superstars.

Throughout the early 1970s the band had been touted at times as the heir apparent to The Beatles, partly because of their close working relationships with the 'Fab Four' on various projects, but also because of their somewhat similar sound. However, it was the meteoric rise and harrowing demise of Badfinger that cemented their name in rock history journals. Although poised to make an impact on the music scene of the 1970s, starting it out with four hit singles and a number-one Billboard composition, Badfinger became victim to the worst elements of the music industry and internal strife; this resulted in bankruptcy and two suicides. For more info read the Dan Matovina book "Without You: The Tragic Story Of Badfinger" or go to WIKIPEDIA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badfinger

Your Eggnog’s Too Strong

If you see a fat man …
Who’s jolly and cute,
wearing a beard
and a red flannel suit,
and if he is chuckling
and laughing away,
while flying around
in a miniature sleigh
with eight tiny reindeer
to pull him along,
then lets face it…

Your eggnog’s too strong!!!

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!

Hugs from Brazil,

Hey Friend!!!  Thank You for the friendship add!!!  Much appreciated.  'Family Business' is a band site of me and my sons and the music we write, play, and record.  We really have a blast doing it.  I also have a couple of friends that are involved too.  Imagine sitting around a campfire out at the lake, watching the moon rise and picking a few tunes.  Maybe you can see what I mean about how much fun it is.  Check us out.  Thanks again, Steve
