The Badfinger video was a BBC item...
two points...
All BBC live appearances had to have a different mix if they were "miming" for MU compliance reasons, so lots of those TOTP (or similar) differ from the originals...
At the end you see a "blond" presenter who has no become the most vilified person in British "celebrity" history - 50 years of undetected and unbelieved sexual assaults ranging from kiddies to elderly... his family have now dug up his remains, smashed his marker (which had "It was fun while it lasted") and had his remains cremated and scattered so he has no mortal place to note he passed this way... lots of editing to remove him from BBC recordings going on... his story is truly sickening...
Badfinger were brilliant but so tragic, and as for the lyrics to Without You, considering his demise...
Do we now have to rewrite British pop history just because Jimmy Savile was an undetected/"conveniently ignored for too long" pedophile? I'm all for giving those people a trial when they are still alive, but acting like they weren't there at the time
when they were there is intellectually dishonest and historical revisionism. It's like Tony Iommi wiping Dave Holland's (ex-Trapeze and Judas Priest-sticksman, convicted child molester, proclaims his innocence) drum tracks off one of his solo albums. And I prefer reading Phil Spector's production credits on future "River Deep, Mountain High" releases too, convicted murder (many decades after the production) or not.
If we started emptying our museums of all art that was painted/created by people that would today qualify as child molesters, we would sure look at a lot of blank walls. The whole concept strikes me as archaic and superstitious: Let's eradicate all evil from our historical records and - voilà! - it never happened or at least we are not reminded of it anymore. Easy way out. I won't burn my Rolf Harris CD where he spoofed a couple of rock classics (some of them quite entertainingly) and don't see myself advocating pedophilia if I don't (in any case, it was a gift from someone who had illegally made a copy of his CD, so it was actually to the damage of Rolf Harris!).
