Best of Budgie was the first compilation album by Welsh rock band Budgie. It contained tracks from the band's third, fourth and fifth studio albums. At over an hour in length, it is among the longest single-LP rock records. Budgie's style of play has influenced many bands after them. Often considered one of the first Heavy Metal bands, this trio always lit up the fans with their collective brilliance.
