In 1972, Granada Television staff producer, Muriel Young put together a six-part music series where six well-known bands were given the chance to come and perform in front of a live studio audience. Those taking part were: Badfinger, Argent, Middle Of The Road, Slade, Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), and Pentangle. The series was sadly cancelled after one series and the performances are either lost or buried in the Granada archive. One episode of the series to have remained in circulation and in reasonable broadcast condition is the performance by Badfinger...

I received this tape from Joey Molland of Badfinger in 1996. I was hoping for a Pre-FM reel to reel on 15ips, but I received a 3 3/4ips reel that was probably post broadcast (it could be a board tape, though)- and in really bad shape. I did the best I could briefl

While this is a mighty fine set on its own (two sets, actually!), I guess that at this point in rock history reconsideration it's better known as "that time Badfinger 'closed' for Big Star's still-officially-unreleased mighty bitchen March '74 show in Cambridge" (http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=188420). Which is fine. Some clown wrote in Uncut (a magazine I otherwise like a lot) that Big Star had "as many hits as they deserved" — that guy's gonna get bitch-slapped by ME real effin' quick. But I digress! The thing is this double Badfinger show deserves to be on the tracker again, so here it is, with minimal Manimal modifications: 

- Added pdf artwork created by a Dime member back in 2008, I believe (thanks!) 
- Added tags, including "digital artwork" taken from the aforementioned pdf 
- Changed filenames 
- Created new ffp and md5 files
