Never Turn Your Back on a Friend is Budgie's third album, released in 1973. A remastered version was released in late 2004.

This is the band's best known album and is notable for its inclusion of "Breadfan", the band's best-known song. Metallica recorded a cover version of "Breadfan" in 1988.

The album cover was done by Roger Dean, who has done much of the album artwork for progressive rock band Yes.
