Hope you and your dad are fine...even more now we're all passing kind of a hard crazy time...love and music, friendship and care, that will finally save us from mental harm...i can imagine how you feel, my dad and me, we are like friends and supported each other for years, my respect and empathy to you all, good health and hugs from a swiss/norwegian/spanish Budgie Fan🎸🎹🎶💮☮️🎩🐻✊💖🐦
Couple of days ago I was thinking about Budgie and what awesome sound they banged out for 3 piece band . I was meeting my mate to go clubbing in Birmingham u.k many years back and he said Budgie were playing same night we could go there first . Big yes never seen them live . Only small venue not many people , but they were outstanding . Thank your dad for me for great night . Cant believe they weren't bigger than what they were . I'm now looking for tutorials on how to play , Zoom Club and In For The Kill on guitar . If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great .
Started buying Budgie imports when I was in high school 1977. Still have their entire Studio Discography on minty vinyl, they are in deed the best underrated Metal band of their era. No doubt.
what I like about them is that they don't need any pose or stage antics or fancy silly clothing to make HEAVY sounds... the kind of HEAVY sounds that will punch your soul.. just listen to Parents holy shit...
RIP Burke Shelley. I loved listening to Budgie. Reminds me of a sweet time in my childhood. A neighbor kid brought your music from the UK. Much gratitude. 🏴
Was lucky yo see them twice in the late seventies...was already a fan well before that...best band ever..I'm 64 now, still listen to their music..they were the best..thanks for everything Budgie..😘😍✌🤙
One of my fav bands when I wasy oung, Still have 3 LP's stashed somewhere. At age 62 its awesome to wach this. Once a metal always a metal. Thanks for sharing.
Every 6 months I search for "Budgie live" hoping to find some gigs/songs from the 70s - 80s, I've seen this videos before but not in as good quality. Thanks!
here I am in one of these 2 AM Budgie rabbit holes 🤣🤣🤣I really despise some things about the "future" and what the world became, but I still love this little thing called youtube, finding so much cool stuff around here... rock on... 1991 kid born in the wrong decade
okay so this is 1975? Disco wasn't a thing yet, right? so they were pretty much playing experimental "disco" music before Disco even became a thing? I'm telling you, these guys were always ahead of their time... the problem with this is that the crowd's brain was not ready for it yet
Burke Shelley is a personal hero of mine. as someone who also suffers from a connective tissue disorder, i find him infinitely inspiring. such a talented musician and excellent human being.🦜🤘⚡️
Thankyou BUDGIE for Best teenage yrs, my son was conceived while his Dad & I listened on record in those days no CD, much Respect, ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🎸🎤🥁🎸🖤🏴♥️
Budgie is one of those rare bands that everything they recorded was worth listening to. I keep finding bootlegs and compilations of material I haven't heard and it blows me away how good it all is. I hope 'One Last Hurrah' comes to be.
okay I'm trying to understand what did compare to this at the time... 1975? so basically they were playing experimental "disco" kind of music before Disco even became a worldwide phenomenon? so not only they are pioneers of heavy metal they also have part in Disco becoming a thing? this is huge
I never really understood the appeal of Led Zep (people were too bored I guess Laughs...) but to me this guy sings better and higher notes than Robert Plant just sayin' 👍
Can you imagine what an impression Budgie made on this 17 year old boy in 1971 when I first saw them. I was lucky enough to see them many times and still listen to them almost daily.
Saw this stunning Welsh trio many times during their heyday spoke to them all on a few occasions, I have memorabilia that guitarist Tony Bourge used to send me & hand written letters, nobody wrote songs like this mighty trio.🎸🎸🥁🤟
Please thank your ol man for giving me millions of happy, happy memories. Reading 80 was just wonderful. Still get the LP's out now, still banging those toons. T H A N K Y O U !!!!!!
Great performance 👏👏👏👏… I heard a glimmer of the Doors in there among a host of others that I’m certain helped inspire their unique flavor ! How delicious 🙂↔️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
I would not say relative obscurity as much as I would say that collectively Budgie were always about Substance over Style. I think that is a great virtue of truly great bands. It was always more of an invitation to critique them based on their work as opposed to so many bands that were more about the Spectacle of Rock and Roll. Bands like that have a lot of Live Footage and by now are relegated to playing parking lots in the midwest opening up for Styx or Kansas LOL!
Majestic...way ahead of their time. I don't think my dad knew about them, growing up with Elvis, the Eagles, CCR, the Stones, David Bowie, the Who, Bachman, Beach boys etc. didn't hurt by far. But this is next level, just like Jimi and Thin Lizzy back then. Slayer came later...
5x dislikes. Why bother wasting your energy & time to dislike this! Seriously what is wrong with some people? Budgie footage is as rare as rocking horse shit... just enjoy it or don’t watch! 🤦🏻♂️
Budgie should have added a RHYTHM BASS player because Burke is playing LEAD BASS! Hard to believe he is no longer with us... Absolutely loved these guys! Been listening to them since 1977...
This Drummer must have been so pumped to jam with Geddy Lee’s dad and Ritchie Blackmore at the same time Im sure most people don’t even believe him when he tells them Well we all know the truth now
These guys were inceptual in creating that hard driving British rock sound. I’d put money on it that Wolfmother were heavily influenced by this band - if not, massively coincidental sound similarity. Budgie were just fantastic.
They were contemporaries. Burke Shelley and Geddy Lee are often compared. Both wore similar glasses. Apparently they appeared in the 70s together. When Budgie left the stage and Rush started their set some audience members thought that the same Bass Player/Singer was in both bands!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The joke at the time was if Geddy Lee was moonlighting in the second band Budgie. They both looked alike with long hair and same style of glasses. Both played bass and did the vocals, but later on Budgie added a keyboard player on tour.
just discovered these guys... what I'm loving about them is that you don't need stage antics or silly clothing to make HEAVY sound... HEAVY sound the kind of heavy that punches you in the guts, hence Parents 1973...
In the Breadfan video. Put some glasses on Bourge and he would pass for Robert Fripp! Joking aside. Rocking Band been a fan for 25 yrs strong. Zoom Club should be on classic rock radio rotation along with Stairway or Freebore. If your a Budgie novice check that song out first then after that dive headlong into the catalogue!
ive never heard these guys before. ive heard metallicas breadfan, and it popped into my head when looking for guitar songs to learn. so i decided to listen to some of it. i'm surprised. what is making his guitar having a slight chirp noise?
I know, it's the studio version, but I could have sworn I saw the Live version with this video, 5 or 6 years ago.. it should exist somewhere.. to "Breadfan"..
I remember being so astounded by RHCPs intro to "Around the World" and thought "holy shit, this takes real talent" when Californication came out and then a few years later I stumbled upon this...
@@MetalPersonJ He's referring to how the intro to RCHP's "Around the World" is clearly, let's say, "influenced by" the main riff from "Breadfan". Just play the two songs and it's pretty obvious really.

Thankyou - Burke Shelley is my Dad and I havent seen some of this footage before :-)
Thank your dad for making music that makes me smile every time I hear it. My all-time favorite band !!

Confirmed it was 2002 my mates wifes 40th birthday when we seen the band
Zeppelin, Sabbath, Deep Purple and Budgie are the Four Fathers of Metal in my opinion.
right....................+Judas Priest
@@TincuMihaiLiviu yes!
Yep
dont forget the kinks or hendrix though
Can't forget Uriah Heep. Actually nothing against Budgie, but Heep were even more prolific.
Started buying Budgie imports when I was in high school 1977. Still have their entire Studio Discography on minty vinyl, they are in deed the best underrated Metal band of their era. No doubt.
if you are ever selling any please give me an inbox im looking for original budgie records
what I like about them is that they don't need any pose or stage antics or fancy silly clothing to make HEAVY sounds... the kind of HEAVY sounds that will punch your soul.. just listen to Parents holy shit...
just discovered them recently... Budge on 🤣
RIP Burke Shelley. I loved listening to Budgie. Reminds me of a sweet time in my childhood. A neighbor kid brought your music from the UK. Much gratitude. 🏴
One of the most underestimated rock artists.
Sometimes worldwide recognition comes late.
Was lucky yo see them twice in the late seventies...was already a fan well before that...best band ever..I'm 64 now, still listen to their music..they were the best..thanks for everything Budgie..😘😍✌🤙
I’m from Oz and on my first overseas trip in 1986 headed to the Marquee Club to see Budgie! Unforgettable!!
One of my fav bands when I wasy oung, Still have 3 LP's stashed somewhere. At age 62 its awesome to wach this. Once a metal always a metal. Thanks for sharing.
Happy memories of a classic band. Only got to see them twice sadly.
Every 6 months I search for "Budgie live" hoping to find some gigs/songs from the 70s - 80s, I've seen this videos before but not in as good quality. Thanks!
me too

"Who Do You Want For Your Love" is so excellent, that I am surprised the Old Grey Whistle Test did not have Budgie back multiple times on their show..
okay so this is 1975? Disco wasn't a thing yet, right? so they were pretty much playing experimental "disco" music before Disco even became a thing? I'm telling you, these guys were always ahead of their time... the problem with this is that the crowd's brain was not ready for it yet
this is like mind blowing, Bass-focused music before The Police members even met each other 🤣
Burke Shelley is a personal hero of mine. as someone who also suffers from a connective tissue disorder, i find him infinitely inspiring. such a talented musician and excellent human being.🦜🤘⚡️
Thankyou BUDGIE for Best teenage yrs, my son was conceived while his Dad & I listened on record in those days no CD, much Respect, ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🎸🎤🥁🎸🖤🏴♥️
We want more.. BUDGIE

70's speed metal! Gotta love Budgie.
Trust he's in good shape-great band
That's what I call music. One of my favorites musicians.
One of my favourite bands that I “grooved on” in the seventies. (And right now! Lol)
One of my favorite bands growing up, I still listen to them almost daily 63 and running from a nightmare😅
Tygers of pantang era!😊
Hi Jasonx8465 glad to hear you get to see footage of your dad for the first time I love this band keep on rocking rip budgie..
Saw this stunning Welsh trio many times during their heyday spoke to them all on a few occasions, I have memorabilia that guitarist Tony Bourge used to send me & hand written letters, nobody wrote songs like this mighty trio.🎸🎸🥁🤟
Saw them back in 78 I think it was, such a good band. Love the Impeckable album.
I saw the Impeckable tour in 1977 in Killeen Texas at a Biker Bar called The KrazyHorse Saloon!!
what is that last song on the album about? such peculiar title 🤣
What a band they were ❤
Thank you. Great to see Budgie live videos on internet. My top 10 bands of all time.
True that.! In my top 10 as well.
R.I.P Burke, born John Burke Shelley 10th April 1950 - 10th January 2022 😪
Only if you can go back in time and have Budgie and special guest "Rush" on the same bill,definitely would be an amazing show.👍
Please thank your ol man for giving me millions of happy, happy memories. Reading 80 was just wonderful. Still get the LP's out now, still banging those toons. T H A N K Y O U !!!!!!
Great performance 👏👏👏👏… I heard a glimmer of the Doors in there among a host of others that I’m certain helped inspire their unique flavor ! How delicious 🙂↔️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Thank You for this Budgie Footage. I am an old (very old) Budgie Fan.

Brings back memories. Great band
¡ Obras maestras ! ( Masterpieces ! Fifty years ! Fifty years now, and still beautiful, powerful, spectacular music ! No better band on our days.)
THANKS FOR THIS RARE VINTAGE!
2018 ive discovered budgie ..Dave mustane got me into BUDGIE....AMAZING BAND AMAZING SOUND
Fucking great underestimated band from the 70´s. GREAT
Majestic...way ahead of their time. I don't think my dad knew about them, growing up with Elvis, the Eagles, CCR, the Stones, David Bowie, the Who, Bachman, Beach boys etc. didn't hurt by far. But this is next level, just like Jimi and Thin Lizzy back then. Slayer came later...
2019 and magic still continues
Отличная недооцененная группа. Впервые услышал в 75г.
Last saw them live supporting Ozzy on the talk of the devil tour at the n.e.c. in Birmingham 1983-ish...great performance
I saw them at a small club in Scarborough, best live band I'd seen. Including Zeppelin!
way ahead of rush got their recognition 2 many years later I'm a great fan
This has got to be the most kickass group on the planet
Rest In Peace, Burke.
5x dislikes. Why bother wasting your energy & time to dislike this! Seriously what is wrong with some people?
Budgie footage is as rare as rocking horse shit... just enjoy it or don’t watch! 🤦🏻♂️
Fantastic! The only thing missing was a song with Pete Boot. Steve Williams & Ray Phillips were excellent drummers.
when your nickname is Boot you just know some SERIOUS drum pounding is about to ensue 🤣🤣🤣
Soundgarden did a good cover of Homicidal Suicidal, which introduced my to Budgie
rhythm section just amazing, so powerful
Una,de mis bandas preferidas.Amo su musics🤘🤘🤘🤘💯💯💯💯♥️
THIS is Magnificent...!!!!!!
EXCELLENT collection! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Squawk was a fine album. In vinyl, part of big brother Dan’s superb collection.
Budgie should have added a RHYTHM BASS player because Burke is playing LEAD BASS! Hard to believe he is no longer with us... Absolutely loved these guys! Been listening to them since 1977...
Love Budgie, belated fan. Rip Burke
THANK YOU MUCH LOVE 4 BUDGIE GREAT GREAT BAND
pyramids is such a great tune man. real prog vibe.
Моя любимая группа особенно 1975-1976 год.
Rest in peace, Burke Shelley!
Legendary
Rest in peace Burke Shelley.
Tony Bourge gives me goosebumps 🎸, JT respect 🪶🎤🎸Burke Shelley love his vocals, 🥁 Steve Williams, ~ Ray Phillips my fav BUDGIE ♥️🏴🪶❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Muito sensacional extraordinario curto muito sem contar o peso melodia e vocal masgistral.
Fuck, how the Welsh can rock...no wonder, was always one of the best bands I ever heard...thats MUSIC😜🎸☮️💮✌️🎤🎧🎼👌
Simply Fantástic This Band 🎼🎶🎸😎👊
fuckin best Wales band ever......before early RUSH
Rest in Peace 🕊 Mr. Burke Shelley
Saw Budgie at a club in East St. Louis Bar in the late 70s. Almost got into a bar fight.
Brilliant Band
R.I.P. Mr shelley
I Love BUDGIE ! XOXOXOOXOXO
Great band. Wish I could see them. 1978 in Germany when I heard them first. M-Bratt. Love this band. God bless. 💜
Rest Easy Burke Shelley.
Were bandolier out on LP..great band!!!
This Drummer must have been so pumped to jam with Geddy Lee’s dad and Ritchie Blackmore at the same time
Im sure most people don’t even believe him when he tells them
Well we all know the truth now
Бомбавые ребята ! И играли и пел бомба !
RIP Burke Shelley
Excelente, Gran BANDA!!!!!
These guys were inceptual in creating that hard driving British rock sound. I’d put money on it that Wolfmother were heavily influenced by this band - if not, massively coincidental sound similarity. Budgie were just fantastic.
Fantastic band, what the Ffff happened they should be at the very top
Love Budgie !!!!
RIP Burke 🏴
RIP Burke and thank you
Breadfanのギターリフ、格好いいですねぇ。昔コピーしてましたー
BUDGIE !!!
I wonder if Rush was influenced by Budgie? Awesome, tight progressive metal.
kmlgraph I've always thought that as well.
They were contemporaries. Burke Shelley and Geddy Lee are often compared. Both wore similar glasses. Apparently they appeared in the 70s together. When Budgie left the stage and Rush started their set some audience members thought that the same Bass Player/Singer was in both bands!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

contemporaries my ass... they were pioneering all this 5 or 6 years earlier
I can see where Rush specifically Geddy got his influence from
Sweet sweet band!✌️🤟🏻🤟🏻
Budgie było kiedyś w Polsce bardzo popularne, ja też ich słuchałem:DDD
Niektórzy dalej słuchają 😀
true metal heads had great melody. three man bands rule. they make the most noise.
just discovered these guys... what I'm loving about them is that you don't need stage antics or silly clothing to make HEAVY sound... HEAVY sound the kind of heavy that punches you in the guts, hence Parents 1973...
Impeckabe best album ..
loved them
though they could get redundant ...
Wish I could find a live video of Black Velvet Stallion
The difference between having a good band name and image.
In the Breadfan video. Put some glasses on Bourge and he would pass for Robert Fripp! Joking aside. Rocking Band been a fan for 25 yrs strong. Zoom Club should be on classic rock radio rotation along with Stairway or Freebore. If your a Budgie novice check that song out first then after that dive headlong into the catalogue!
Damn, Latka Gravas is playing the fuck out of that SG
ive never heard these guys before. ive heard metallicas breadfan, and it popped into my head when looking for guitar songs to learn. so i decided to listen to some of it. i'm surprised. what is making his guitar having a slight chirp noise?
He,s holding the plectrum at angle when he's hitting the strings which gives a harmonic type of effect
Budgie entre outras bandas deram a origem que anos mais tarde chamaria heavy metal thank you Band budgie entre outras 🤘🍷🍺🖤🎧🎤👏🇧🇷👍🤝🌃😎
That first one isn’t a live recording, contrary to belief.
I know, it's the studio version, but I could have sworn I saw the Live version with this video, 5 or 6 years ago.. it should exist somewhere.. to "Breadfan"..
Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chilli Peppers intros amazingly existed way before they were born
I remember being so astounded by RHCPs intro to "Around the World" and thought "holy shit, this takes real talent" when Californication came out and then a few years later I stumbled upon this...
@@Nervulis Which song are we talking about here?

yeahhhh babyy
54 years ago. Dont make bands like this no more
That girl can sing
