Badfinger's debut
A pretty good debut for the band, but not among their best releases. Yet, MAGIC CHRISTIAN MUSIC was just putting their toe in the water. Songs like CRIMSON SHIP, MIDNIGHT SUN, and possibly BEAUTIFUL AND BLUE have the Badfinger sound. Let's not forget the great COME AND GET IT penned by Paul...

Badfinger Boogie, Mal Evans discovery
Good debut from Mal Evan's (Beatles roadie's) discovery. Actually this is a compilation of the Iveys album and the then current soundtrack to the Peter Sellers film of the same name. Good stuff for any rock fan.

Variable Bubblegum
This is a review of the original American vinyl LP, which includes everything here except "Angelique", "Give It a Try", "Storm in a Teacup", and "Arthur". I'll have nothing to say about these four additional tracks. I've never heard them, in fact. It may be natural to suppose this the soundtrack...

A Good Album!
Magic Christian Music was the first album to bear the Badfinger name, though 6 of the songs on the album are in fact old Iveys recordings that had already been released on the Maybe Tomorrow album. Some of the recordings were done with Paul McCartney, and he obviously helped the band create...

4.5 stars - an excellent album
Magic Christian Music (1970.) Badfinger's second album, and the first to be released under the name Badfinger (their first album was released under the band's original name, The Iveys.) This album is actually a collection of songs from various sources. To give you a better understanding of this...

If You Want It, Here It Is, Badfinger's Begining.
Actually it's only a Badfinger disc in name only. Most of the tunes on the album were done earlier when the band was called the Iveys and the rest were done after the name change but before second guitarist Joey Molland joined the band. The result is a mis-mash of different styles of songs....

Solid "first" album from Badfinger
Magic Christian is made up of a mix of originals recorded for this album and a handful of tracks remixed from their debut as The Iveys. The stylistic contrast between Badfinger and The Iveys is quite pronounced on some tracks. Tony Visconti's production on Maybe Tomorrow (the album The Iveys...

MAGNIFICENT "Debut" of one of Britain's best bands!
Though technically their 2nd album, this was the first after they changed their name from The Iveys. What a great disc! 3 songs from the Peter Seller/Ringo Starr film THE MAGIC CHRISTIAN (hence the title) include Paul McCartney's classic "Come And Get It" (see BEATLES ANTHOLOGY 1 to hear HIM...

The true godfathers of power pop
There really is no justice in pop history. Burned-out rock critics apply the much-overused qualifier "Beatlesque" to every two-bit band that can come up with a discernable melody. In the current Bizarro World of rock underachievers, the insanely-overrated Oasis get favoured with the B-word. How...
