I've been digging this band for over 30 years, and they're still in my heavy rotation. Rodger Bain from Sabbath's early years produced their first two. Anybody know the only thing Budgie has in common with Yes?

Roger Dean did album cover art for both bands.

Looking to get some BUDGIE into my collection. Although they were not as heavy, I have always been dissapointed that Barclay James Harvest did'nt recieve a bigger profile than they got. A great underated band.

If The Beatles became a full fledged prog band. BJH is probably what they would sound like.

I was going to say they were both hippie bands, but you are correct. If you want to start a collection begin with their debut and follow-up "Squawk". Both display guitarist Tony Bourge, who had more riffs coming out of his arse than Tony Iommi.

Came across a copy of Squawk earlier today.
Although I wasn't blown away by it what struck me about it was how ahead of it's time it was. It sounded more like a NWOBHM album than anything released in 1972. Having heard that I think they are due a lot more credit than they get.
