This is a Joey Molland album.
The actual title should be "Joey Molland sings Badfinger." There's nothing wrong with this album, just the fact that it's misrepresented as a Badfinger group effort when Joey is the only original member on it. If you take it in that spirit it's not all that bad.
Joey does a pretty good job of only slightly reimagining his band's old repertoire. I would have to say the worst thing about this is the drum sound, which makes it sound of the time in which it's recorded. This can be a little distracting.
If you have the original Badfinger recordings and want more music this isn't such a bad way to go, but I wouldn't go here first. A Joey Molland album in all but name.
BTW, there are two or three other versions of the same album out there. Buyer beware.

Buyer beware! This is NOT a collection of original recordings from 1969 -1971. It is 1994 recording by Joey Molland and a group of fairly good musicians and a producer who didn't do a very good job doing songs made famous by Badfinger. Go elsewhere for original hits by original stars. This is for fans & those too impatient to find the originals.
