Peter Ham formed a local rock group called The Panthers circa 1961. This group would undergo several name and line-up changes before it became The Iveys in 1965. In 1968, The Iveys came to the attention of Mal Evans (The Beatles' personal assistant) and were eventually signed to the Beatles' Apple Records label after approval from all four Beatles, who were reportedly impressed by the band's songwriting abilities. The Iveys changed their name to Badfinger with the single release of "Come and Get It", a composition written by Paul McCartney that became a worldwide top-ten hit.

One of the saddest stories in music along with the 3rd-Feb-59. Made worse by two of them passing away. I so want to visit his grave. R.I.P.

Wasn't it a beautiful one? Debbie, but I think it's the saddest one.

@yolandawinter2244 28 дней назад

I've always loved Badfinger, and always been deeply saddened at what happened to Peter Ham, and later, Tom Evans, who also committed suicide. Sometimes, deeply sensitive people cannot cope with an often brutal world. The manager Polley was an absolute disgrace. It's such a shame that Apple folded, taking away McCartney's input into Badfinger, which was immense. I've seen an interview in which McCartney talks about what an immense talent Ham was, and I got the feeling that he would have intervened had he known what was happening. A sad and tragic end to a brilliant musician, singer-songwriter. Without You must truly be one of the greatest songs ever written. Thank you for this video showing Ham's grave and for your thoughtful words.

Hi Yolanda very interesting. I didn't know that. I'd like to see the interview with Paul McCartney talking about Peter I'll try and find it.

@petertalvi8511 25 дней назад

Thanks very much for posting as I live in the States and at my age may never have the chance to come visit Swansea, though I would certainly like to. Pete was a beautiful soul and deserves being remembered. Your video is touching as I had only seen still images prior and didn't know about the extra engraved photos at the foot of the gravestone. You are right when you said he left some beauty behind in the world.

Always fascinating to see where so many famous faces are laid to rest. Have you considered looking for the grave of former world speedway champion Peter Craven, who was killed in a track crash in Edinburgh in 1963 - the only world champion rider to ever lose his life. He's buried in West Derby cemetery in Liverpool

Well done sir! Respectfully done. Anybody who wrote beautiful songs like Baby Blue and, with Tom, Without You deserves to be venerated forever. The full story is both sad and anger inducing, these two lads are in heaven playing their music and stan polley is in hell getting red hot pokers rammed up his backside for all eternity.

Didn't recognise the name Badfinger at all, but after watching your touching, and wonderful visit to Peter, I played some of their videos, and unsurprisingly, I recognised some of their great songs.

Greetings Alan, Another superb VLOG, I remember Bad Finger but was not aware of their history or Peter’s sad demise. I was 18 in 1975 and now coming up to 67 wonder what he could have achieved had he taken a different path. The older we get the more reflective and sentimental. Having dealt with those who chose to taken their own lives I am torn between their despair and state of mind but anger for those loved ones left behind and those of us left to in some cases to literally pick up the pieces. On a more positive note thanks for the story. Just about to leave the beautiful New Forest and travel back home. Hope you are enjoying your travels 👍

@MotorHomeBeepBeep 29 дней назад

Hi CFP I believe it's irrationa to die l because of the pressure. Logically if a person could stand back most people I think would do nothing to harm myself but they have succumbed to the pressure because of youth and sensitivity. It's very easy to say that when older with less pressure I was born in June 1958 similar age to you. I now realize this is never a utopia in life the best is now before it's too late. Enjoy your travels I am ...I'll see you again I hope.

Thank you my friend I can see that you're very excited I honestly don't know I'm as much about them as you do and I'm not sure which band Paul's brother was in because I'm a big Paul McCartney fan but I'll take it out tomorrow but I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the film. All I can say is that the guy looks wonderfully sensitive and I love without you I bought the single when I was 11 years old it was the first woman I ever bought keeping touch I'm so pleased you enjoyed Alan

@@beatlebrian4404 THI BB thank you ever so much that's very interesting of course I do know the group The Scaffold because of their big hit Lilly the Pink but I didn't know the other things. It was nice he didn't try to trade off the surname McCartney and did his own thing.

It's a shame that Peter Ham and Tom Evans lost themselves and felt the need to do themselves in. They could have hired a lawyer and got their money, and then moved on. They could have toured for years and made a ton of money from their concerts.

They did in the 80s... the legal firm said they could have got the money back, but the costs would have been more than the money recovered.
