RIP to a class act and a lovely warm human. being. I reckin he joined the zoom club for real and will still be rocking the house to its foundations..... somewhere.
RIP burke I have seen loads of bands live including the who with the late John Entwistle another great bassist but budgie have got to be one of the best live bands I have seen how they never made it as big as the likes of sabbath, zeppelin I will never know RIP burke a huge loss to rock
When I did not see Burke mentioned in the 2022 Grammys in memorium l was heartbroken. Should have been included. Grammys are as rediculous as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. RIP Burke. I will always remember your music.
I went to the Six Ton Budgie Convention in Cardiff in 1995 and met Burke etc. During the convention, they played an outdoor video performance from Budgie in San Antonio which would probably have been from a year or 2 earlier. Rumour has it that Burke did not want the video to go into circulation because he was struggling with his vocals or something (Flu etc???). To me, it was gold dust and I didnt notice it. Hopefully one day, us die hards will be able to witness more videos from the archives. They seem to be popping up all over the place at the moment. Just look at the Midnight Special posts ;)
Back when here in San Antonio we had the best radio stations throwing out the greatest jams ! Not like the shit music they play today .You can still catch T-Bone on KSYM I believe and The Rock Vault on line plays a lot of Budgie . and it is out of New Braunfels TX .
In 1979 I literally don't know who was more underground in America between them and Priest? Priest made it big around 1982 or so and Budgie never did! Back in '79 no one knew who either of them were in the U.S. (except of course the handful of hardcore hard rockers which there were so few of)!
@@Glenrsi definitely not early 2000's, jmo. this is lifted from VHS and probably 1992- 1994. Here is Budgie in 2000 th-cam.com/video/F4NTUhERH5s/w-d-xo.html
this has to be from 1995 april it was during fiesta i was there and still have the shirt and it still fits.if i remember correctly this was the first time Budgie had come back to san antonio since the late 70s.i was 26 when i saw the 1995 show really enjoyed the band that i had only listened to on album and cassettes RIP Burke Shelley very underated bass player

I agree with you 100% it had to be the record company and management.. just look at their catalog

Budgie!!!! The connoisseurs choice.
I wonder what year this is.
A guess and would say early 2000's
Maybe 90s he grew his hair back in 2000s..
