You may be referring to VH1's
Behind The Music:
Badfinger. There is also a book called - Without You :
The Tragic Story of Badfinger. Two members committed suicide, Pete first, and then Tom, years later.
They were song writers and musicians unto themselves and I never really thought of them being like the Beatles.
