It's not a proper Budgie album without some pensive, acoustic ballads.
Where would rock 'n' roll be without feedback?

Bloody nonsense

easy for the press to do that. lazy. heavy crunch = gotta be sabs-like. range into acoustic numbers = gotta be zep.
it's just another way of saying they're derivative. i mean, sure, it's fine to talk about diff threads in a band and what they might remind you of... but not if it's a write-off, ya know?

Okay, "Zoom Club" is one of my very favorite Budgie tracks. Slow build up intro into the big thudding riffs is a thing of beauty.

Breaks up the album well, good contrast.
Am liking the intro of Zoom Club very much.

J/J, they started branching out in different directions after this album. Still retained a lot of heaviness but things got more varied. If I could recommend only one of their albums that I think you'd like best it would be Bandolier, the one that follows this one in the catalog.

Great jam!
I guess that some of you (C!) have seen Budgie live - presumably fairly awesome?
