Today is the one year anniversary of the Breaking Bad finale and my post Breaking Badfinger.

I just finished watching the series conclusion of Breaking Bad. The final song played was Baby Blue by Badfinger, a top hit from 1971-1972 and one of my favorites. At a time when kids named their cars, I named my second car, my second VW bus, Baby Blue.
As the crystal meth Walter White made was a trademark blue, Baby Blue was a fitting song. Actually it is fitting in many ways, on many levels.
Baby Blue was a cult classic in the 1970s. Breaking Bad is destined to be a cult classic.

Wikipedia has a good discussion of Baby Blue including acknowledgement of it’s appearance in Breaking Bad (who updates Wikipedia so fast?)

Badfinger recorded on the Apple label, the Beatles label well before Steve Jobs created the other Apple. In fact there is a lot of history on this as well.
