Joey Molland, the last surviving member of the heyday of the hitmaking British band Badfinger, lived in Minnesota for 40 years and died Saturday night at Methodist Hospital in St. Louis Park.
He had been hospitalized since December for complications of diabetes, said his son, Joey Molland III.
“We were listening to his music, all together, holding hands. The last song, ‘The Dreamer,’ and the last lyric in the song ‘And I’ll never grow old,” and he passed right after that,” his son said Sunday.
