"Maybe Tomorrow" is the debut album by the British rock band Badfinger, originally released in 1969 under their original name, The Iveys, on the Apple label in Japan, West Germany, and Italy. The album was intended for a worldwide release but was halted in the US and UK without explanation at the time.
The decision to halt the album's release has been attributed to Apple Records' new president, Allen Klein, who paused all non-Beatles releases to assess the company's financial situation, which was in turmoil. Despite this setback, most of the songs from "Maybe Tomorrow" were later reissued under the Badfinger name on their album "Magic Christian Music."
"Maybe Tomorrow" marked the beginning of Badfinger's journey in the music industry, showcasing their melodic songwriting and harmonies that would become hallmarks of their later work. The album's delayed release underlines the challenges faced by the band during their early career under the Apple Records label.
Ultimately, "Maybe Tomorrow" as The Iveys remains a notable chapter in Badfinger's history, highlighting their evolution from a promising young band to the acclaimed rock group they would become known as.
