Album Description

For the first time in 30 years Jon Lucien has finally made a live recording. It is an intimate transference of his performance at Birdland in NYC captured on disc. Jon transports us to his tropical islands and the tempo is set for an exhilarating voyage. Even though the tunes are separated by applause from the enthusiastic crowd, each song is a continuing story of Jon's love journey performed in different world rhythms derived from: Brazil, The Caribbean, Africa, American jazz, rhythm and blues, and other places that simply must be called "Jon's countries." Jon's music defies category.

Impeckable.......2006-08-20

Budgie is a three man band from the early 70's with a terrific sound. Hard driving and melodic with song's like Don't Dilute the Water, and Smile boy Smile. A real joy to listen to.

Dish It Up.......2002-01-27

This was the first Budgie LP I ever bought and then I saw them open for Styx (Grand Illusion) and I was hooked. I immediately bought everything else I could find by them. Truely a band more deserving of a better fate. I was taken by the first song, "Melt the Ice Away". The energy of Budgie albums is alive in their stage shows; I'm talking non-stop. The singer couldn't keep his glasses on. He probably should have contacts! Other songs here worth mentioning are "Love For You & Me", "Dish It Up" and "Don't Dilute the Water". This is a good release to start with, since none of the songs made the Best of album, but it was on a different label. Budgie is different, so, if you're looking for mainstream look somewhere else. Not to say this isn't great music, but you have to like something unlike the rest to enjoy Budgie. The only place I would start other than here or Best of would be Never Turn Your back on a Friend. Highly recommended!

The Impeckable Mr. Bourge.......2002-01-16

This is a fine Budgie album, and the last one they made worth owning before ace guitarist Tony Bourge was inadequately replaced by Big John Thomas and the band headed for a bland stab at commercialism, releasing 3 more lame albums and 1 EP(that didn't sell anyway!!) before calling it quits in the early 80's. Impeckable shows the band in fine form. To call this music just metal does it a disservice, as they flirt with a funky kind of progressive rock Zeppelin only hinted at.Guitarist Myf Isaac was added to the line-up for live shows and is credited on the album sleeve(I'm assuming he might have played some extra parts but his contribution is not specified), as Bourge was layering more tracks and the music was going beyond a basic power trio sound. Rush fans take note, bassist Burke Shelley is a dead ringer for Geddy Lee both in appearance and (somewhat)vocally.I always believed their style was the perfect marriage of Rush and Sabbath,and they should have had the same worldwide poularity as the quality and quantity of their output in the years '71-'78 was at least equal to if not superior to those bands . Impeckable and 1978 marked the end of an era as Bourge left Budgie and Ozzy Osbourne left Black Sabbath (making Never Say Die and appropriate sister album to Impeckable)and both bands were never the same again. Oh the good old days!!Note,the wrong album (If I Were Brittania,I'd Waive The Rules)is pictured with this review of Impeckable.

Impeccable, it is.......2002-01-15

Tony Bourge is one of the all-time least-appreciated genius guitar players, and this album showcases his riffing beautifully. For those looking for sonic sludge (think Sabbath) then you might like to start with IN FOR THE KILL, but this album is technically more proficient and has better songwriting. The bass and drums are swell enough, and the vocals are pretty sweet for metal, but Bourge is the standout. He left the group after this album, and the albums got progressively less interesting as a result. Latch onto this one and (if it doesn't make you love it right away) it will grow on you until you consider it one of the best in your collection, IMHO.

Finally!! People Recognize This As Great!!.......2001-08-25

I hate to call it a metal album just like members of Zeppelin didn't like to be called heavy metal...It is rock, bluesy, hard rock with just the right amount of metallic gleam. Awesome production. It is the best Budgie album, end of story.
