🎼10 April 1950. Happy Birthday 🥳🍾to Geddy... pardon 😉... John Burke Shelley born in Cardiff, Wales, UK. I'm pretty sure few people hardly know him and his band, he was the singer and bassist of Welsh band Budgie. They are one of the most important bands for developing the Heavy Metal sound in early 70s 🤟🔝
But #BurkeShelley is and will always be remembered also for his incredible resemblance with a far more famous rock musician from Canada!!! He played the bass and was the lead singer like that guy, plus he had almost the same voice, almost the same face and almost the same shape 😳😱
I share with you this video of their 1973 (!!!) amazing track Breadfan and anyone can easily understand why I'm talking about Heavy⚡️Metal with a Killer Riff 🎸😈
This song is also an official cover by #Metallica for ages!
And the singer looks like... 🤔???
