The Iveys (Badfinger) : Maybe Tomorrow (Expanded Remastered)


LISTEN TO A LONELY SOUND

SEE THE GRAY AND SADNESS ALL AROUND

SEE THE PEOPLE GO THEIR WAY

CARE NOT OF ME

AND LOVE I'VE LOST TODAY

 Maybe Tomorrow

 is the 

debut album

 by 

British

 Rock band

 Badfinger 

Maybe Tomorrow

 is the 

only release

 under the band's 

original name

 as

 The Iveys.

 It was issued in 1969 

on the Apple label

 in Japan,

 West Germany 

and Italy. 

Although the album 

was scheduled 

to be

 released worldwide,

 the release in the US

 and UK 

at that time 

was halted 

without explanation. 

Many reasons 

for halting the album

 have been suggested

 by the band 

and Apple employees, 

but the 

most common theory

 is that Apple's

 newly hired president,

 Allen Klein

stopped all 

non-Beatle releases 

on Apple 

until he could examine

 the company's finances, 

which were in 

disarray at the time.

A majority of the 

album's songs

 were later issued as

 Badfinger songs 

on the 

Badfinger album 

Magic Christian Music.

Background

The Iveys

 (later known as Badfinger) 

were a successful

 live act 

on the

 London circuit 

when they attracted

 the attention 

of Apple employee 

Mal Evans

 in early 1968. 

It was through 

Evans' perseverance

 that demonstration recordings 

made by the group 

were presented to 

The Beatles

 (Apple's presidents). 

Although the band 

was initially waived

 by Paul McCartney

 and John Lennon, 

the former relented 

as more impressive 

Iveys tapes 

were brought in 

by Evans.

The group signed

 with Apple

 in April 1968 

and began 

making recordings

 immediately upon

 their arrival. 

With the incentive 

of releasing a

 worthwhile single,

 the band was

 not focused on

 compiling an LP. 

Maybe Tomorrow 

was therefore 

culled from 

various studio recordings

 the group made

 during a 

12-month period, 

 they do not resemble

 the sound

 Badfinger

 would later become

 known for. 

The sound quality

 of the Iveys album 

is relatively poor

 due to a

 "muddy" mix. 

When some of

 these tracks

 were 

carefully re-mixed 

for Badfinger's 

debut album 

Magic Christian Music

 the sound quality 

was significantly improved.

The title track 

was released as

 an Apple single

 in 1968

 and enjoyed

 limited success

 in regional markets

for example, 

reaching number 1 

in the Netherlands.

Due to Badfinger's 

subsequent fame

 and the album's

 limited release, 

Maybe Tomorrow 

became an

 expensive collectible

 for many years, 

often earning between

 $200 and $400 

US dollars

 for a single

 used copy.

 Although a 

1990s re-release

 of the album

 on CD format 

curbed demand

 for the original album, 

the CD itself 

became collectible

 because of its

 limited run.

So Down Load It Now !!!
