Here in the midwest, power pop is a strong, pervasive influence on music. One of power-pop’s architects, Guitarist Joey Molland of Badfinger, joins me tonight. Joey’s career is fascinating and enmeshed with rock and roll history. From Badfinger’s signing to the Beatles’ Apple label, to Joey’s work with George Harrison, all the way through Badfinger’s “Baby Blue” bringing “Breaking Bad” to a close… we have a lot to cover!
Joey Molland is part of this year’s The Fest for Beatles Fans event, presenting a virtual George Harrison Birthday Celebration this Thursday (2/25). The honorable and wonderful Terri Hemmert will be hosting, and other guests include Peter Asher (Peter & Gordon), Klaus Voorman (designer of the “Revolver” cover) and Billy J. Kramer (British Invasion star). Tickets are 15 bucks, and you can get them here:
