Hi Deep Floyd , thank you for posting a question like this !. BTW , I have posted a question about Budgie yesterday !.
I'm a fan of this trio since the first time I listened to my first album which was (Never Turn Your Back On A Friend) !. After that , I downloaded (The Best Of) album and I was blown away by tracks like "Zoom Club" , Napoleon Bona Pt 1" , I can't See My Feeling" , " I Ain't A Mountain" !.etc!. !. Recently , I downloaded "Squwak" I didn't listen to it yet !. Since I'm from Saudi Arabia , it's really difficult to find a store or even in malls where real music is available , it's all nowadays non-sense !. Finally , I just want to state three points in (Why Budgie immediately got into my favorite list) !.
(1) A power trio >> I have always appreciated power trios , it needs so much more effort !.
(2) Budgie is the true bridge between (Hard Rock / Heavy Metal) land and (Progressive yet complicated keyboard and effects FREE) !. So , they won my heart by doing 10 and 9 minutes songs straight by guitar and bass (Rock 'N' Roll essence) !.
(3) Burke Shelley's hammering on the bass is as underrated as the warrior's (Phil Lynott) !. It just amazes me how Rock 'N' Roll society talk about the like of Les Claypool (even if talented) or Cliff Burton or Geddy Lee (all talented) and not talk about Phil or Burke !. Songs like "In The Grip Of A Tyrefitter's Hand" tells you a lot about Burke's talent !. Finally , don't forget the son of Tony Iommi in music that is the legendary Tony Bourge , just listen to the guitar getting torn in "The Breadfan" !. Www@Enter-QA@Com

You guys should check out their recent 2006 album 'You're All Living in Cuckooland', it's quite good, as they seem to recapture their sound from the early 80's on this one!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
