Apple Records releases Badfinger's first single, "Come and Get It" in the UK. The Paul McCartney written tune would climb to #4 on the Official Chart. It would be released in America on January 12th, 1970 and rose to #7, becoming the first of the band's four Billboard Top 40 hits.

Their next album 'No Dice' was released the same year. It included track 'Without You', written by Banfinger, which was -not- released as a single (showing how expert their managers were).
McCartney later called it 'the killer song of all time'. Harry Nilsson turned it into a US#1 in 1971.
