BUDGIE The Best Of Budgie

Boxset / Compilation · 1998 · Hard Rock
Cover art Buy this album from MMA partners
A decent budget price compilation from the Welsh band Budgie, mainly focusing on the ,MCA years and the Tony Bourge era.

There are some real gems on this album from the Trio, in a vein of Rush and Led Zeppelin.

best tracks on this album include the opener "Breadfan" one of the best tracks they've done, later covered by Metallica, and all the first four tracks are a must hear.

Even the longer numbers like Parents and Breaking all the House Rules are also a must hear.

Three drummers are present in this era each have their own powerful and punchy drumming, great bass from Burke Shelley.

Tony Bourge's meaty and fantastic guitar work are fantastic.

A must CD for those who want an intro to the music of this band.
