Didn't the Beatles discover Badfinger?

They start off with an "I Am the Walrus" style vocal cadence & instrumental rhythm track; they have the Wurlitzer electric piano sound going; then they pull in the circus sounding trumpets from the Sgt Pepper era...
...& @ 4 minutes into the song, as they come out of the dreamy section, here comes the quintessential George Harrison distorted guitar riff leading back into the "I am the Walrus" verse.
I could pick out lots more direct cops...but you get the idea.
They were quite brilliant on that song.
