    Possibly the best rock song ever by the best and most underrated rock band of all time! The soundtrack of my youth, I saved all of my weekend job money to buy all of their albums (kids today, yes we had to take weekend jobs rather than relying on handouts from our parents)... A band with some of the most imaginative and creative song titles of all time - who could forget 'Crash Course in Brain Surgery', 'Nude Disintegrating Parachutist Woman', 'Hot as a Docker's Armpit', 'In The Grip of a Tyrefitter's Hand', 'You're the Biggest Thing since Powdered Milk', and possibly the cleverest 'If I Were Brittania I'd Waive the Rules'...
    Genius!
    Why don't we hear Budgie on the radio? Fair play to Johnnie Walker that he played 'Crash Course in Brain Surgery' on his Friday Night Rock Show a couple of years ago I I nearly crashed my car when I heard it!
    I'm sick of mainstream radio like Radio 2 when they have their 'rock' section constantly playing Led Zeppelin; IMHO they were just playing second-fiddle to the mighty Budgie...
    'Nuff said, RIP Burke - you'll be the superstar you deserve to be in Heaven!!!

    "Budgie" has been well known in Poland since 70's - thanks to one of the most popular radio journalists who "discovered" them and played their records in his broadcasts. This is one of my favorite music bands. "Napoleon" was issued in 1975, when I was 18.

I was converted for life! They were, and will remain brilliant. Also, Pat Traverse, J Geils Band, UFO, and of course, Robin Trower were also mind-blowing performers. God, we had the greatest rock n roll in those days! ❤️ Not to forget Frank Moreno and Mahogany Rush

    I had the privilege of seeing them live in 1978 in London. I got hit by a car before the concert (I am Yank and looked the wrong way) but made the show anyway. I wish I still had the tape I purchased. I can still see it sprawling across the highway as the trunk containing it falls from the back of my truck. Only memories.

The latter had much higher register stuff than Shelley. Yet Rush make it big Budgie in the curio dustbin for friggin life. If there’s ever a top 10 list for worlds greatest rock and roll injustices this band not hitting at least Rush levels of success is high on that list.

Since then I never heard again because the tape had decayed. I've spent almost 40 years in searching to know the artist, to let me find the new tape/CD in a musicshop. Now finally I found it here, thanks God. Now I'm 56 y.o. And my listening Enjoyment never faded any.

Pamiętam jak zadzwonił do mnie podczas koncertu właśnie w Progresji, żebym mógł sobie posłuchać „przez telefon” jak to grają na żywo. Słyszałem tylko jeden wielki jazgot, dopiero na drugi dzień mi powiedział, że to był ten kawałek. Bardzo miłe wspomnienie, dobrze do tego wrócić co jakiś czas.

They staid with us for almost 2 hours played at a sound level that only was heard when Motorhead became famous.

Hard Rock tylko przez czasy bo to czysty Heavy Metal brzmieniem i to Metal lat 80 mimo, że to 1975!
