I was able to see the " BUDGIE " at the majestic theater in San Antonio back in the day. Was removed by the police for some reason but just bought another ticket and went back in with my long hair , handkerchief around my head " HI " as the sky , back in the day .
Burke Shelley RIP - before his time. Budgie were unique - Shelley and Bourge sounded like no one else. Songwriting including lyrics, lead and bass guitar licks, riffs and solos up there with the very, very best.
Man this band just keeps on giving me the chills. Just listen to this amazing track. The power and the tension brought by the rythm section and THAT GUITAR TONE COMBINED WITH THAT GUITAR WORK. Tony Bourge has got to be one of the most underrated guitar players of all time...and I am not one of those people that abuse the term "overrated". This guy is one of the few that really deserve this term
What to say. It's Budgie. I've been interested in rock music since 1973. This song has been still my favourite rock ballad. Please count the time it's really long term. I really love their music and I've got all their CD. I think it is time to introduce everyone this band and remember for older music fans. Are You agree? If YES go on.
Just love Budgie. They were true originals. If you listen to The Eagles and “In Those Shoes,” they were influenced by this song. Stallion came out three years before it. I live in San Antonio native and would love to have grown up here back in the 70s.
The first Budgie track I heard was “ Parents “ in 1976 I was 16 years old I had never heard anything quite like it before it’s was something from a different stratosphere…. Peace to World from Scotland.
Iwas at a gig in cardiff castle in 1976. Budgie were on the bill. They played this track. The crowd loved it. I bought the album the next week. Welsh wizards!!!
So underated... saw them at a rock allnighter at the Scala Kings X in 1973. Was 16 years old and still remember them hitting the stage at 3am and starting their set with Breadfan. Just brilliant!
@@jeffhavas8013 ; that’s right bud, The God Father of rocken roll the town that made bands famous. Yeah well, those times are gone for ever. They only exist in our memory, shit man!! So fucken sad post bro! You know what ? 🤣💭😁 ignor…..
That guitar solo tone is fuckin searing! Managed to see them a few times in the 70s, and that not only feels like a lifetime ago, it actually IS a lifetime ago. Great days.
This song is somehow really funky and realyl mysterious/hypnotic at once. Love taht trilo of albums starting with Bandolier and endign with Impeckable. Somehow it's my favourite period of Budgie.
Black velvet stallion, you are gone* Chasing a windsong, be my son Always here wondering Hoof beats are thundering through me Maybe you're running from me Black velvet stallion are you near Carry me far away from my fear Son of an Arab mare Roaming on solid air and free While you are living be free Black velvet stallion be alone Send me a messenger call me home Pictures and silhouettes Spending a pirouette on me Maybe you're coming to me Black velvet stallion you're my child Flower of tenderness growing wild Look through my wilderness No one would ever guess you're me What I am seeing is me
Bradford Rios, I was standing crossed arms waiting for the band to come on, some 20 years ago and on they came, Burke replicating my stance which immediately melted me. A great night, a great performance from a great band. Underrated crops up a lot with this band and it is very justified.
when i was in school i'd go round my mates and he'd put his older brothers records on. thats how i got introduced to budgie. later i saw them '81 in reading. started listening to the band again since the last couple of years. i appreciate them way more now that im older and wiser
Actually, Duran does have a good point. San Antonio in particular was a hotbed of Budgie Fandom during the seventies due to the huge amount of airplay they received thanks to Joe Anthony and Lou Roney who played them incessantly on KISS FM in S.A. They have developed a huge fan base there over the last 4 decades as a result.
@@dianainclan2021 Me too. I am the guy that turned on my few friends to Budgie around 1971 This was in a small town near Austin. 50 years later, and I still get Thank Yous from around the country
One of my all-time favorite songs. I first heard this on KMAC radio in San Antonio when I was 11 years old, and this song always connected with me... big time! This is one of those songs that brings me pure joy every time I hear it (which is often).
2:17 to 2:47 = 😧😦 4:48-end=😯😲🤯🤯🤯pure 🎸 insanity.... And the freakin drum track is so ridiculously hard to play.. yet sounds so damn simple... Such underrated talent it's a shame.. (RIP Jack thanks for clueing me in!) Luck For us music is eternal! 🤘

A genius has died
Underrated…. Crap

I think I was there! 1979 or so?

Well said, agree

RIP Burke Shelley, one of the greatest frontmen/bass players in history
☹️🙏☮️
I would like your comment, but I can't be the one who changes it from 13
RIP. We lost a musical genius and a hell of a band.
Tony Bourge is a brilliant guitar player. Very underrated band, indeed.
Indeed, agreed
☮️👍
BUDGIE IS THE GREATEST ROCK AND ROLL BAND IN ROCK AND ROLL HISTORY they should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
What a killer guitar solo
Exceptional. Every bit as good as Zeppelin, Sabbath or Purple.
....... as I have been pointing out for years!!! With hindsight its clear they deserved way more recognition.
Better than sabbath.....????
@@bruno2000. Correct, your answer must be in the form of a question.
Correct
Its like sabbath mixed with steely dan or like Gerry Rafferty

Criminally underrated by the establishment but Not the Fans.

What a ending to this song. A masterpiece

Since 1971- for me
Totally agree mate. Lpved them since i was 17 & I'm 62 now. Tony Bourge has always been up there with the best in my opinion.

I agree!
@@tammieparrishmiller3669 agree the band were so legendary
🎉 good stuff, bass god.
1975 ,V.H.S. is on the house!
Just love Budgie. They were true originals. If you listen to The Eagles and “In Those Shoes,” they were influenced by this song. Stallion came out three years before it. I live in San Antonio native and would love to have grown up here back in the 70s.
Aimee Kelly Hellyeah I love it 😻
Moxy,Legs Diamond,Great White and Frank Marino plus about 4 other 70 bands in October in the beautiful San anfuckintonio
wow.mind blown.I didn't notice that.and now i think of how close the Eagle's song is with that bass line..good song too.but this is FIRE!
I wondered that when I heard the bass line. Old fan of Eagles, new fan of Budgie. I've always liked birds...

Brilliant! Guitar almost talks !!Fantastic as ever since I first heard it in 1976 !!Rock on Budgie . Great rock NEVER ages !!!😀👍🎸🎸
I can smell the weed during this one. Teens at a friend’s house after school. Dear memories. Budgie, yeah!
Same here as a teen
Same here right now
The weed is stronger now.
✌️
I love the way Budgie plays their music.
I love too... Especially rhytm section...
Iwas at a gig in cardiff castle in 1976. Budgie were on the bill. They played this track. The crowd loved it. I bought the album the next week. Welsh wizards!!!
So underated... saw them at a rock allnighter at the Scala Kings X in 1973. Was 16 years old and still remember them hitting the stage at 3am and starting their set with Breadfan. Just brilliant!
Love Budgie. They are GOLD!...❤
Budgie, just the music of my youth! GODs of time travel as they transport me back!
😎
I was 14 when i saw Budgie, still loving them!!!!

Enough Said
💪☮️
Budgie sure could play. Landmark band in metal's development but a travesty that they're are so often overlooked. Been a huge fan for years.
Black velvet stallion, you are gone*
Chasing a windsong, be my son
Always here wondering
Hoof beats are thundering through me
Maybe you're running from me
Black velvet stallion are you near
Carry me far away from my fear
Son of an Arab mare
Roaming on solid air and free
While you are living be free
Black velvet stallion be alone
Send me a messenger call me home
Pictures and silhouettes
Spending a pirouette on me
Maybe you're coming to me
Black velvet stallion you're my child
Flower of tenderness growing wild
Look through my wilderness
No one would ever guess you're me
What I am seeing is me
Burke shelley. Top notch.
Rocking in San Antonio Texas. West Side

Never got to see them live unfortunately.
I feel like Burke must have had such an amazing voice live, no gimmicks.

3 times

This is hauntingly. Breathtakingly music to my ears!
My fav band since 1971
I bought this album at a Budgie gig at St.Albans Civic Hall in 1976. I was right at the front, leaning on the stage, right where Burke was playing.
Such an under appreciated band.. great stuff too bad I can't get it on Spotify
Same on Apple Music…!😡. Get the CD s…..🎸
I agree! Spotify only has Crash Course In Brain Surgery...otherwise the rest are live.
@@davidwainwright2816 been trying to record again on my cassettes...sucks
black velvet stallion and heaven knows our name are truly two highlights 👍👍👍👍👍
Fcking Amazing Track
Rest In Peace my Friend
Burke Shelley.
The best track I can't forget
this song is so haunting , damn...
First saw them in 1973 still love listening to them so darn good.
You know you’re old when you consider this LP Budgie’s newer release
RIP Burke.
😭☹️☮️💓🙏
Absolute classic, cant remember how many times i have seen Budgie over the years from mid 70s. Will there be another group like this???
KILLER ROCK SONG ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Burke Shelley has gone 10th Jan 2022 just heart broken, This band played A big part in my youth. We have just lost a big Welsh Star. RIP /|\
Jack Dempsey wherever you are thanks for showing me this song
Been listening to budgie since 79 when I was growing up in San Antonio kick ass rock .

Was fortunate to see them in the late 70s in Hollywood on the strip
A great show ...The crowd loved em!
ROCK Efffin' ON! Budgie sets the bar for rock-n-roll
That is so awesome. AMAZING
Was great to hear this track live.

A classic Welsh trio that somehow got no airtime on mainstream radio stations
KMAC in San Antonio did.
Because their songs are too long, I guess. In contrast, an appreciating listener would want more of that goodness🎸🤘🏼
Awesome audio quality upload!!
great music
Absolute belter of a tune 👌
Amazing.. very before their time.An amazing band an how their not considered heavyweights is a travesty!!
Haven't heard this in 30 years!!! Right On!!!
RIP Burke. Love ya.
😭😭😭😭😭☮️✌️
... Αξεχαστα χρονια Victoria.. 🤍🤍
Still most excellent, thank you.
I'll take Budgie as the greatest three piece hard rock band. I like 'em better than Rush and Cream, both phenomenal in their own right.
