Just heard this as a 55 year old metal head who clearly needs to do more research, for the first time. I’m about to play it louder n louder each time for the rest of the night!
I gave my son a Budgie T-shirt for his birthday a few months back, I got a phone call from his high school science teacher wanting to where I got it so he could get one for himself.
Budgies finest hour .....Power Supply was a masterpiece in the bands history . I remember ordering this album at our local " Record Store " . I couldn't wait for its release .....did it deliver.....oh yeah 🤘👍 If you have stumbled on this upload by mistake ....do yourself a favour and get yourself some " Budgie ".....you will not be disappointed 👍
I used to be into Budgie, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Hawkwind and later Motörhead, UK Subs, Led Zeppelin, Rose Tattoo, Uriah Heep, UFO, Judas Priest, Deep Purple, Rainbow and Dio. From the age of 16 to thirty I was an unapologetic speed freak. I was in the snake pit baby, there was a lot of it about. I was in a band called Virgin Blood. We did mostly covers and we wrote a few songs. The ones We wrote that I like best were liar, brass knuckles and fast as fuck. We weren’t terribly eloquent. Our lead guitarist went on to work with the singer from Marillion, the drummer from U.K. Subs (who apparently was a cunt), and has made a good living working as a session musician. He is truly an amazing guitarist now. He was great back in our day, but now he’s like a guitar genius. I’ve met U.K. Subs. As time went on I got into early Iron Maiden, with Paul Dianno and Clive Burr on drums, Saxon, Angelwitch, Blitzkrieg, Diamond head. I saw them live and they opened with Shoot out the lights, they were fucking awesome. I was a huge Motörhead fan. Got Lemmy’s autograph, saw them live at least a dozen times. When I was thirty I gave up speed. My teeth were fucked. Once I’d made some money I had a bunch replaced with implants and the rest I had veneers put on. I had gold teeth put in on my upper jaw just before my canine teeth and the same on my lower jaw. So I have four gold teeth. I don’t care if cunts think I’m a poser. I’m living proof that you can come back from a lifetime of heavy amphetamine abuse and still afford to buy a great smile. Before that as Lemmy put it my “perfect smile betrayed my lack of style”. We used to play this so loud through our PA system and amplifiers and bass bins. It’s such a ballsy song. I’ve always loved it.
I saw budgie in 2000s and they totally smashed it, little did i know that my uncle seen them in the 70s and he said that people were dancing on the table and rocking out
I'm writing this 11 years after after your post and I can't agree with you more its criminal that budgie wasn't huge I mean Black Sabbath huge they were that GOOD...R.I.P. BURKE....
Comical when I talk to 'classic rockers' who never heard of Budgie (guess they were to busy listening to queen). They were much loved in the 70s by the true rockers and they were much loved by us out here in Fresno. Thanks for posting this great song by this great band and have a great day
I saw Budgie three times in the seventies and they rocked - why are three piece bands so good? They are one of the great unrecognized bands of UK along with Stray and Steve Gibbons Band.
I still can't get over the fact I never even heard of the band until a couple of weeks ago. I've been listening to them ever since and it's still got me at a total loss!!!
top song, the live version from "Reading Rock 82 vol 1" is absolutely fucking amazing and is still one of my most played songs, along with Superstar from the same album.
vastly underrated band with a ripper of a guitarist .What happened to John Thomas ? I knew he wasn't very well and I hope he made a full recovery . Great band ....a great fucking band
I consider them one of the parents of NWOBHM. What a great band, and they were very loud as I remember! Love the track parents, just takes me right back to the late seventies! Oz
Hear me call, panzer division destroyed Power gun pounding and well deployed Everyman seems to burn, die in hell Twisted steel, twisted mess sealed the deal Hear me call, panzer division destroyed Absolute; no sign of life at all Crushing men, living men have all gone Hear me call, panzer division destroyed Cold and burned the smoke and blood inside Pure light splits the night with a flame Blinding rage get in touch with our plane Hear me call, panzer division destroyed Pretty sight, pounding fire, finding home Well I?m in sight cutting through hostile zone Only sound on the ground is a moan
@@eazye519 how are we comparing the two bands? Based strictly on musicianship: Budgie never had a Neal Peart, but Shelley and Bourge are every bit the musicians as Lee and Lifeson.
Great Dave and Burke are born again christians. just thought I would share that fact. Just like the one you shared. WE all learn something new every day. Have a good one.
I used to listen this band with my band mates in Colombia,the only thing we knew about them it was that they were from england and metallica had made a cover of "breadfan", that was before the internet a friend found the vynil at his aunt's and later we found more of their music,since then its one of my favorites brings back good memories from "the metal house" the best of the underrated bands.
Really dug their bourge timeperiod. But now am more receptive to their post bourge stuff. Like this one. GOd/Jesus bless and save all that read this. AMen!!
I recommend any new fans get the first album (and to a lesser extent the second) as it is just solid headbashing rock, recorded basically live with a few overdubs.Really good stuff on there with The Author & Homicidal Suicidal being my faves. The second album it a pretty good representation of their original sound too...don't get me wrong, most of their other albums are fantastic if not better than the first two, but there is just something so RAW about the 1st 2 that keeps me coming back.
I think the same about Megadeth too, I hear a lot of Budgie influence in Daves melodic structures, especially in the 90's albums, but then again I listen to a lot of Budgies early albums and hear a lot of stuff the clearly influenced Maidens Gallop, early Priest & Diamond heads am I evil lol

Is this Burke Shelley singing ? Wow, he sounds different... of course a lot water passed under the bridge of Budgie and the band and the members themselves changed. I like this approach.
Mogę tylko zazdrościć.... Mieszkam w Walii... gdzieś niedaleko Shelleya...ale nie wiem czy dane mi będzie go zobaczyć... za dużo pubów tutaj a koncertów już Budgie nie daje. echhhhh.... zostało Deep Purple 12.10.13 w Manchesterze.
Das ist so eine geile Rockmusik, das ist schon nicht mehr feierlich. Dank an unseren Gott im Himmel, der es ueberhaupt erst moeglich machte indem er uns schuf.
i remember standing by the stage hearing this for the first time, way back in the 80"s on this the power supply tour, cant remember who they were backing, def leppard or ozzy? but i was hooked from that day.

Don't you think there is a strong similarity with immigrant song by led zeppelin? ua-cam.com/video/y8OtzJtp-EM/v-deo.html I just discovered budgie (i'm already a breadfan 😁) and that's what immediately came to mind on first listen. As google tells me : immigrant song is November 1970 - Panzer Division Destroyed is 1980
RIP Burke Shelley. Budgie was one of the pioneers of Heavy Metal. 😭🤘🏻

Jay A where did u get it?
I have the same question
Parenting done right.
The lack of reply as to where you got it leaves me in some doubt on this one.
Great lets hope they become as hip as the Ramones one many teenagers are sporting at the moment
Rip Burke, what a legend! Budgie day today then 🤘😔
And John Thomas his work on the guitar made this track a classic.
and the drummer !@@TheSheikhmihand
Steve Williams.

Bandoiler was a better album I think but this is still one hell of an album
Most underrated band ever.
Criminally under appreciated.
Steve Harris was definitely paying attention! 😊
Sea of Madness, right? ;)
@@megahurtz30 that was written by adrian tho
Saw these guys in the 70s Just never had the break they deserved
Budgie is the best, they rock was listening to them since late 70's and still do.
You've got to love these guys and this song shows why. They were such a huge influence for so many bands that got huge.
RIP Burke Shelley
What a great track my friends !!!! - Budgie at it's best - Reading festival 1980 !!! RIP Burke and big John Thomas !!!!
3 fenomenal musicians, and so much excellency in music.

New wave of British heavy metal!!
Badass,no matter the year. These cats rock. Bad timing? Bad promotion? Doesn't matter these cats know what they accomplished.
I bought this album when it came out. Brings back some memories and without a doubt one of the greatest live acts ever.
Welsh boys fucking smashing it 💪
Lovely isn't it?
I saw budgie in 2000s and they totally smashed it, little did i know that my uncle seen them in the 70s and he said that people were dancing on the table and rocking out
GREAT VOICE
GREAT SOUND
GREAT SOLO
and drums !
This was the first song I ever saw them perform live. Cant remember how many times since then I saw them but everytime they were excellent. Top band
By far the most underrated band ever

Thanks for posting this great song by this great band and have a great day
part of the "blowing nazis tf up" trilogy with Maiden's "Aces High" and Priest's "One Shot At Glory"
I've also seen them 3 times and they are a legendary band
Agree with comments; top band; top song; very underrated band
I saw Budgie three times in the seventies and they rocked - why are three piece bands so good?
They are one of the great unrecognized bands of UK
along with Stray and Steve Gibbons Band.
because each one is a master of their craft, Rush, The Police, Nirvana,Primus, & many more
Go Go Budgie.............my ears are still ringing....30 years later...you buggers!
lol...yeah mine too! Saw them quite a few times in Liverpool clubs in early 1980's. Fab band
that's honestly amazing. I can only imagine.
losing my hearing from standing too near the Bass Bin at Northampton County Rock, in the 70's watching Budgie, Stray , ,Judas Priest, UFO etc
Now I know who inspired Motorhead to make riffs for "shoot you in the back".
Budgie to Budgie trzech facetów a muza. ..genialna
Great song and great riff... So great that it was used by Yes on "It's Over" on the "90125" Deluxe release.
Great Budgie song extension of Power supply alongside Wildfire, my vinyl didn't came with this EP and I lost big time then. Budgie 4ever!
The live version from Reading festival is brilliant.
budgie sabbath and rush what more could u need
WAYNE AARON ALBON Judas Priest
@@dianainclan2021 70's is Golden yrs!
Great track. This is the one album I never heard or bought. Now I've got find a copy!!
I still can't get over the fact I never even heard of the band until a couple of weeks ago. I've been listening to them ever since and it's still got me at a total loss!!!
Enjoy it's awesome, it was a real return to form back in the day
Thanks BUDGIE for genious music!
Sheep are great! All the original three were from Wales, Cardiff in fact, not just the guitarist!
❤ Cardiff ❤ 🏴
I had this song on a compilation cassette and loved it.
the guitar solo is out of this world
Budgie's best track.
100 %
wow cant believe I hadnt discovered them earlier!!!
very very good..................................................
Seen them three times TJ’S Newport South Wales. Very underrated band. Shit hot....
they played at our school Christmas dance, in Caerleon, in 1970. i was 15. great night, to be sure
Sadly never had the pleasure. Shit hot indeed.
@@roballen5718 that’s awesome lol
top song, the live version from "Reading Rock 82 vol 1" is absolutely fucking amazing and is still one of my most played songs, along with Superstar from the same album.
vastly underrated band with a ripper of a guitarist .What happened to John Thomas ?
I knew he wasn't very well and I hope he made a full recovery .
Great band ....a great fucking band
Sadly he died on 3 March 2016 at the age of 64. Great guitarist sadly missed.
Man, I never even knew this existed
I consider them one of the parents of NWOBHM. What a great band, and they were very loud as I remember! Love the track parents, just takes me right back to the late seventies! Oz
Hear me call, panzer division destroyed
Power gun pounding and well deployed
Everyman seems to burn, die in hell
Twisted steel, twisted mess sealed the deal
Hear me call, panzer division destroyed
Absolute; no sign of life at all
Crushing men, living men have all gone
Hear me call, panzer division destroyed
Cold and burned the smoke and blood inside
Pure light splits the night with a flame
Blinding rage get in touch with our plane
Hear me call, panzer division destroyed
Pretty sight, pounding fire, finding home
Well I?m in sight cutting through hostile zone
Only sound on the ground is a moan
sings the Flak 88 mm gunner after operation Crusader in North Africa 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
This stuff is timeless. I'd rate these guys around RUSH status to be honest....close anyway
Lol no way. Cool band but not even close
@@eazye519 lol just saying they surprised me and they hold their own
@@hompen3220 lol no chance in hell
@@eazye519 how are we comparing the two bands? Based strictly on musicianship: Budgie never had a Neal Peart, but Shelley and Bourge are every bit the musicians as Lee and Lifeson.
@@VanirTraditionalist Budgie is a cool band. They're not even close to Rush status. No chance in hell.
Dave Mustaine and Lars Ulrich's favourite band. Way ahead of their time, great stuff!
Great Dave and Burke are born again christians. just thought I would share that fact. Just like the one you shared. WE all learn something new every day. Have a good one.
this is where it started man, late 60's, and the 70's... black sabbath, budgie, lead zeppelin, etc
its good shit...
Es majestuosa una obra de arte una joya viva el rock por siempre.
Cavoletti bello bello bello dimenticati troppo presto davvero un peccato veramente Bravi
Fenomenal banda
Can't stop recording these guys Hahaha my computer is going to run out of space!!
Love this song. Wish it was easier to find budgies music. Most of their albums are out of print it seems...
Bigmak87 so true!
Their best song by a long long RUN! DESTROYING!
Great solo in this one
damn these guys were heavy AF for back then
I used to listen this band with my band mates in Colombia,the only thing we knew about them it was that they were from england and metallica had made a cover of "breadfan", that was before the internet a friend found the vynil at his aunt's and later we found more of their music,since then its one of my favorites brings back good memories from "the metal house" the best of the underrated bands.
No they were Welsh not English.
found Budgie through that same cover.. the Metallica version feels basically dead compared to thei original.
Great going mate!! I hope them pearly whites have served you well!! Up the irons!!
the originals are the best,covers/remakes are okay but,the originals are always the better to listen to,Budgie an underrated band of the 70's,😎
True!!!
Yeah, but without the covers I'd have never even heard of Budgie. And I'd consider that a damn shame
Really dug their bourge timeperiod. But now am more receptive to their post bourge stuff. Like this one. GOd/Jesus bless and save all that read this. AMen!!

Does Burk Shelly sing on this one? It sounds just like him. I hated to see this band age out but thrilled that other musicians picked up the torch.
Big influence on Metallica these guys, especially with the slower melodic parts of songs they did. Quality.
I think the same about Megadeth too, I hear a lot of Budgie influence in Daves melodic structures, especially in the 90's albums, but then again I listen to a lot of Budgies early albums and hear a lot of stuff the clearly influenced Maidens Gallop, early Priest & Diamond heads am I evil lol
i dedicate this to most bands today -PANSY DIVISION DESTROYED.
Hahaha. Well done mate.
Holy shit, I never knew a studio version existed of this song, I could never find one...
great song.
FRIGGIN SWEET...I"VE NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE ITS NOT ON ORIGINAL LP...THANKS!!!

You have excellent taste then

Great tune!!
Burke said he played better when he cut his hair. He rocked!!!
Just remember everybody has an opinion, even if that opinion is wrong. By the way, this song is wonderful!
so underrated band :(
when music ment something what a great great awesome band.
Is this Burke Shelley singing ? Wow, he sounds different... of course a lot water passed under the bridge of Budgie and the band and the members themselves changed. I like this approach.
change the voice ist not the same the producer... mony mony
His voice changed a bit and a diff production may be a factor too.
They sure has hell don't make them like this anymore, both the band and the songs!
awesome band
hells yeah budgie the best

saturday nights soundtrack, fuck yeah
look on their website man, they sell all their albums.
I guess that this riff and 'More of that Jazz' by Queen, heavily influenced James Hetfield to wrote Master Of Puppets.
yes, Metallica actually were noted Budgie fans
"Who do you want for your love" has a very master of puppets riff
this is rad
old school!!
i remember standing by the stage hearing this for the first time, way back in the 80"s on this the power supply tour, cant remember who they were backing, def leppard or ozzy? but i was hooked from that day.
I'm sure they supported Ozzy on his first Blizzard Of Oz UK Tour in 1980 or whenever it was.
@@steveclem that would be the one then, as I saw Ozzy on his blizzard of oz tour about that time, thanks for reply.
