Short intro

Never Turn Your Back on a Friend is Budgie's third album, released in June 1973. A remastered version was released in late 2004. The album includes Breadfan, one of the band's better known songs. Metallica recorded a cover version of Breadfan in 1987. The first pressings of the vinyl LP included a chiming Big Ben and a spoken intro of Winston Churchill's speech to the Commons in 1940 - however, due to legal problems, this had to be removed on later pressings and has remained that way on all CD.

Originally released in 1973 on MCA, Budgie's third record, Never Turn Your Back on a Friend, was another slab of the band's signature plodding metal sound. Although they were never more than a cult band in the U. Budgie's popularity flourished in their native England, yet their influence was eventually felt by many notable American bands Metallica, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, etc. Listen free to Budgie Never Turn Your Back on a Friend Breadfan, Baby Please Don't Go and more. 7 tracks 42:15.

Budgie's third album, Never Turn Your Back on a Friend' contains their most famous and arguably best song in lead track, Breadfan. This track, the album opener, is an amazing proto-thrash metal classic that is incredibly heavy for 1973 However if listeners were aware of the bands first two albums then they would be as surprised at the aural violence wreaked by Breadfan. Never' also contains other notable tracks which curiously feature two other heavy long songs, two short acoustic ditties and a ten minute power ballad that closes. This particular album, released in 1973, seems to be Budgie's most recognized album. Then the rest of the song goes back into the relentless hard rock riffing and singing. IMO this is the best sounding track off the album. 2 Baby Please Don't Go Overall a bluesy, shuffling song. Has some good guitar licks and bass riffs. The singing is a bit weird and cheesy, but in a way fits. The riffs change from verse to chorus to solo, etc. Good song nothing amzingly special about it though
