Album Notes
Even though Badfinger's 1972 album STRAIGHT UP remains their most celebrated work, WISH YOU WERE HERE--the final Badfinger album before the 1975 suicide of group leader Pete Ham--is arguably their finest moment. Produced by Chris Thomas, WISH YOU WERE HERE is a melodic tour-de-force that easily holds its own against such seventies milestones as Paul McCartney's BAND ON THE RUN and Fleetwood Mac's RUMORS. Featuring a dynamic set of songs that range from the rousing power pop of "Just A Chance" to epic, upbeat ballads like "Dennis" and the delicate love song "Love Time," WISH YOU WERE HERE is Badfinger's most consistent and rewarding album. There's not a single wasted note and the several long medleys--"In The Meantime/Some Other Time" and "Meanwhile, Back At The Ranch/Should I Smoke"--show that Badfinger had perfected their distinctive brand of tuneful, adventurous rock that recalls the ABBEY ROAD-era Beatles at their best.

Editorial Reviews
3 stars out of 5 - ...great songs aplenty and Badfinger were convinced that this album was their most cohesive yet. They were right. If it's half an hour of Beatles-soaked pop that you're after then this is just perfect.
