Episode 31 of From A To Global Z is available for public viewing. This production is a tale of musical woe and the final foray in this mini-series dedicated to exploring the many and varied reasons why bands break up. We will delve into a single tragic case study about the heartbreaking saga of 1970s platinum rock band, Badfinger. Their tragic story has important lessons about about the music industry, and surrounding yourself with the right people. For ‘Mic Talk Time,’ we have a real beauty – it is Austrian Audio’s OC16.
