@@sheldontapp3769 Hi Sheldon. Yes bud, lets not. The dreaded second album. Will it be as good or will it bomb!!! In my opinion, Steeltown was one of their best albums. It was about a town in England called Corby, where a government minister at the time called Norman Tebbit said to the masses... if you want work, get on your bike.. Scots folk descended on the town and everything was ok, until it went a bit tits...the work dried up etc. I believe there is still a large percentage of scots folk, ancestry etc associated with this wonderful town. Apologies if i'm wrong. Please educate me accordingly.. The artwork, the gatefold sleeve with the boys wearing those suits (straight outa Miami Vice!!) Sheldon; when its my time to drop off this mortal coil, on my gravestone I want these simple words/lines, penned by the unique, sadly missed William Stuart Adamson thus.... East of Eden. Some days will stay a thousand years some pass like the flash of a spark Who knows where all our days go!! Sheldon, continued good health to you and your family. Stay alive brother xx.

I love your comment davidpenny800, couldn't agree more. I think this is my favorite Big Country performance. Stuart is perfection, from his voice to his face to his body. He must be the absolute most beautiful man I've ever laid eyes on. I think I'll love him to the day I die. I still cry thinking about him leaving us and why. It sucks that the US didn't embrace BC the way they did U2. I just don't get it. No other music can compare.

It’s got to be 40th Anniversary on American Radio this Spring. I remember busing to Cross Country high school Meets. I had a newly minted “Walkman.” I had my Cassette Tape. My Walkman had “Reverse Play” so I just zoned out after the 3.5 mile trail race, to This. It was Great. That was Spring, 1983.
