This a tremendous performance by a band which on the night seemed in top form. I would love this whole concert to be re-issued on DVD. A pity that this song didn't remain on their live set list years after this, as it is B.C.s most positive-sounding song. Finally... the musicianship here is top drawer!
Restless Natives movie. Wolf and Clown masks. I was 6. Strange the things that stick firmly in the memory bank. I remember this tune on the radio in Larne when the British Army came onto the coach and told me and my mum to get off for a search.
@hadders81 BIG COUNTRY still are great and alive n kicking as they set off on tour 2011 with Mike Peters "the alarm" singing lead vocals stay alive !!!!!!!!!
Absolutely superb! Later live versions I've seen on here don't sound as energetic and Stuart plays about too much with guitar melody. Dunno if they got a bit fed up playing over and over again for years on end! Love the Les Paul Customs as well... I want one!
Johnny Gallagher not into the tribute bands the always sound like cheepy cheepy BBC copies and then tax for listening or watching their version of how life should be if that makes sense
how are they not hailed as one if great bands ever this show is so good
fred their are held high by my children they grew up listening to them mediocre means shite
fred well the media rules
fred not middle of the road BBC
Big country is the best God bless you start Adamson and big country you are the best
Outstanding rock band really underrated and powerful live performance here. RIP Stuart
What makes you believe they're underrated?
If there's one great thing that no one can deny!! it's that Big country were great!! R.i.p, Stuart!
holy hell that man is incredible on the guitar
what a beautiful man...RIP Stuart...
They don't make bands like this anymore. Makes me proud to be Scottish.
my children grew up with your sound hope this will inspire others to step out the box

Awesome 👌 🏴🇬🇧
Amazing live version!
Most of their tunes are an unofficial collection of Scotland’s national anthems 🏴
Great performance. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful uplifting song :) x
Rip Stuart, you was amazing..
