Budgie - Squawk ? A1/B1 1974 Re-issue • UK MCA • Rare - Listen!
I am selling my complete 70'sand 80's rock collection so be sure to check out my other listings
Welsh trio Budgie produced four of the very best British rock albums to start their career. In my opinion guitarist Tony Bourge is an unsung hero, some of his guitar work is extraordinary, while the high pitched vocals and Rickenbacker bass licks of Burke Shelley have often drawn comparision with Geddy Lee of Rush. Squawk was their second album and a significant jump musically from the rather raw first album. A couple of real classics including 'Hot as a Dockers Armpit' and ‘Stranded'.
I am listing all of their first four albums (Budgie, Squawk, In For the Kill and Never Turn Your Back on a Friend) so be sure to check out my other listings.
Issue details This is the 1974 re-issue UK release, A1/B1, but still quite rare Catalog Number MCF2502 Vinyl Matrix: Side 1… MCF 2502 A - 1, Side 2… MCF 2502 B - 1
Condition Some surface scratches visible on vinyl. Labels pretty clean, just a couple of tiny marks on Side 2.
Sleeve is in very good condition, just some small signs of wear, slight creasing in places but nothing significant. See photos for more detail. Inner sleeve in very good condition.
Playback Side 1 - Some very light static here and there, mostly audible between tracks, a couple of light ticks early in last track. Side 2 - Some light static crackle on lead in and through first couple of tracks may benenfit from further cleaning, 2 audible pops from a scratch during track 3.
NOTE: I always play back through headphones to judge quality so many minor faults I list may not even be audible through speakers.
