Query: Nice live retrospective

Well chosen set of real live and "studio live" performances that pretty much span the band's career. There are some rough spots here and there - Burke's voice is rough in places & there is some typical sonic degradation - but that kind of goes with the territory when you're dealing with recording from the 70's. The mid-70's performances benefit greatly from the inclusion of a second gutairist, the band's breaks and jams are just terrific, at times. Budgie fans - you've got to hear the John Peel show version of "In the Grip of a Tyrefitter's Hand" (track 6) - it will blow you away and convert the unitiated, it's that good. If you, like myself, never had a chance to see the band, this will give you a good idea of what they were probably like live.
