Every Saturday morning at 9 105.7 KOKZ brings you classic American Top 40 the 70’s! This Saturday Casey Kasem features the top songs from May 13th, 1972, it’s where I found today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 from Badfinger with “Baby Blue”!

The song was a hit for the Welsh band on their 4th studio album, written by Pete Ham and produced by Todd Rundgren, the song went to #14 on the U.S. charts and the song experienced a resurgence of popularity in 2013 when it was featured on Breaking Bad during the closing scene of the series finale. Online streams increased in popularity immediately following the broadcast and the song appeared on the Billboard Digital Songs chart at #32 the week ending October 19, 2013.

No Walter White, but you can check out a performance of “Baby Blue” by Badfinger, today’s Forgotten 45!
