About this album

Never Turn Your Back On A Friend is Budgie at their most focused and forceful, balancing hard rock heft with the group’s off-kilter progressive instincts. Issued in 1973, the album helped establish the Welsh trio as one of Britain’s most distinctive heavy rock acts, with a sound that was tougher and stranger than many of their contemporaries. The record’s best-known piece, Breadfan, became a lasting calling card and later found new life through covers by Metallica, underlining its influence beyond the band’s original era. Across the album, Budgie combine muscular riffs, dynamic shifts and a raw, eager energy that made them cult favourites.
