Victorian Brickwork by Big Big Train live in London

[@BTBAM819]

Still can't believe a beautiful voice and singer such as David has left this world. He had one of the most incredible voices in the whole world. It's so sad I can't process it😞

[@glork32]

I am with you on this one really..the love you never mend to hide...😪

[@TakisMasterKey]

Highest level of musicianship, high on emotion, this is a masterpiece of the modern prog era!

[@klemenskupper7028]

👍

[@jamieyoung9392]

I've just discovered this. It's soaring, elegiac, victorious but mournful. I made sure my sons had a proper education in prog, and recently my eldest son introduced me to BBT. So, the wheel comes full circle. By God, there is still life in prog rock.

[@mick1406]

This is BBT's signature track. Goose bumps, lump in throat, tear in my eye - every damn time. Wow guys, what a song.

[@alansloane2651]

i don't think you can fault any part of TUY but i agree

[@katemurphy1915]

BBT is the most sophisticated band in existence.

[@klemenskupper7028]

absolutly!

[@peterogers6813]

I was there in the second row, along with my daughter. Still think about the show most days, best gig I've ever been to. Goosebumps from beginning to end.

[@yeswolf1]

The trumpet solo in this brings me to tears it is so beautiful. Amazing guitars, too.

[@blazingday8596]

Dave Gregory represents everything I love about music. Quirky, never boring and essentially British (I would say English, but I'm a Taffy!)

[@euanjupp]

How the hell have I not heard of this band before? And then to hear of David's passing a few years ago. Elation and deep sadness at the same time. This is almost as good as the 70's got. Thank you Big Big Train. Rest in peace David.

[@ClassicMusicVault]

The best part about finding a band like this after they've recorded so much material is that I get to immerse myself in this wealth of sheer brilliance for a long time to come all at once. I now have yet another reason to travel to the UK. I must see this band live.

[@robertreedy414]

Ditto. Just discovered. Gobsmacked...

[@jasonjenkins6373]

singer sadly passed, they have a new singer now. i didnt see it but i guess for all the people who tell me, you wont be getting that gabriel style sound....

[@csitMusic]

Rikard Sjöblom is one of the most underrated modern-prog icons, for god's sake...

[@brucifer0]

csitMusic Could not agree more

[@jamesbalestrino2670]

Miss Beardfish...amazing!

[@HS-ys2xi]

Just listening to this after the loss of David Longdon. I hadn’t listened to BBT for a while. I’d forgotten how good it is, how great David’s voice is, and how much I love it. RIP, David ☹️

[@kieronbowker9983]

First time listen for a few years. Same tears for the beauty of it all. Still my favourite line up. Miss David. Miss Danny. Miss Rachel. Miss Dave.

[@WillHsiung]

Was part of the privileged few to attend last month. Oh to relive all of this!!!

[@anthonydebot45]

Amazing. Rikard Sjöblom is such a great addition to the band. Can't wait for the bluray.

[@Ametrida]

I just discovered this band and song today. I doubt that I will make another musical discovery as amazing as this one in many months!

[@blazingday8596]

I purchased this whole production 'Stone and Steel' as a VIMEO download. For about a tenner you get three hours of beautiful and unique music (ok, it sounds a bit Genesis in places). Don't hesitate, download it now!

[@Lineageholder]

This is the classic line up of the band. Sorry to say, they will never be better than this - songwise, too.

[@steveblomerth1]

The entire concert must be made available on DVD. If enough fans of Big Big Train ask for it, they should release it. What a wonderful experience to share with people. Real music, well played, beautifully recorded and attended by true fans.

[@dandecastro51]

Masterpiece! Never imagined a trumpet (9:00 or so) could be so romantic I am an avid Yes fan. And Genesis a close 2nd. And this song may be the most gorgeous I ever heard!

[@Kingding6]

checks every box...musicianship, song craftsmanship, emotion, passion...a proper masterpiece!

[@gerardbassols5268]

I thought it would be nearly impossible to replicate this amazing song live, but they ever surpass the studio version. Absolutely stunning performance of a deeply emotional song, brilliant, and Rikard is such a great addition. Wish I had been there.

[@klemenskupper7028]

I absolutly agree with You!

[@jroberts2nd]

The first song I ever heard by BBT, and honestly it is still my favorite. An absolute masterpiece.

[@deh1301]

It's been a year since I saw this concert live at Kings Place and still, every time I watch this I'm in tears. Glorious music from beginning to end, but particularly that sublime brass ensemble finale... just superb.

[@yrrah23]

Prog music is REAL music! And Big Big Train are friggin' awesome!!!! Thank you BBT....just for being!

[@angusprune2758]

Absolutely Fabulous, I'm in tears again!

[@ianwhite6812]

+Angus Prune Prooooone

[@MichaelEllisOfTenDeg]

Everybody is.

[@jeffconciatori5932]

this is a very special piece of music. I hope everyone else enjoys this as much as I do...

[@klemenskupper7028]

Jeff Conciatori 👍🤗

[@graemegreen4019]

This is fab, great memory of a great gig. They must release a DVD of this.

[@malcolmclarke3033]

A very special band. David was a unique performer. RIP x

[@buffplums]

WHAT an amazing band and I love David Longdons voice … gives me hope for the future of not just prog rock but music generally … along with bands like Magenta and artists like Peter Jones … fabulous

[@mikulasspal]

Great music I just find out now unfortunately based on news that David Longdon passed away such a loss … RIP

[@JeffCooper10538]

Gloriously emotional and simply stunning, uplifting music. Outstanding, just outstanding ...every moment, every note. Lost for words to describe how good this is really.

[@klemenskupper7028]

👍

[@progrock21]

Just seen it at Cadogan Hall today. Out of this world !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kenmcneillmusic1699]

My favorite “new” band at the moment. All great musicians. I Hope when covid settles down they’ll finally make it to the States. I’m glad Dave Gregory found a great band to settle into after his time with XTC. He’s a perfect fit.

[@JoaoLuisOliveira]

This whole song is a wonderful work of emotion, but the brass performance of the instrumental mid-section breaks your heart down to pieces. I've never listened to solos the same way again after this song. David will be heavily missed.

[@2visiondigital]

Best prog song i have heard in a long while. Viva the brass,. Gone to never repries.

[@tonyg3793]

That's just a major miracle. Thanks BBT. Not since Heart of the Sunrise has prog glowed so bright.

[@blazingday8596]

The interplay between Nick and Dave Gregory is just fantastic during the canon riff. And caught so well on camera. I love iti was thrilled when they played this at Cadogan Hall.

[@ADigitalhobbit]

Spent my only time away this year at the three nights of Big big train gigs ..stunning just stunning ...and this is only a small example of how good this was. ...

[@MikeGervasi]

Rikard's solo is just mindblowing. Even Gregsy looks over and smiles which is a HUGE compliment. This song brings me to tears even more now.

[@jasonjenkins6373]

you say that, but were you at the 14/15 performance for steve wilson when you had marco min on the drums and guthrie gov on the guitar. surreal and the prog band marrilion went to see them as well in the crowd 😆

[@johnfrancis5225]

I was lucky and privileged to see all three shows - what an absolutely marvellous and emotional experience. Bring on 2017. Memories that will always be wonderful.

Words fail me... I'm just so happy this amazing band is there creating beautiful music like this for us and that their gigs in London in August were such a success! As I watch the video it's just like I'm there at Kings Place again... ☺

[@adam872]

There are some songs (and bands) whose reputation is only enhanced by live delivery and this is one of those songs. It's hard to believe a tune with so much complexity and so many layers can be pulled off in this context in such a (seemingly) effortless manner. There are so many sections that make the hair stand up on end, the second guitar solo (spine tingling), the brass section, Dave's signature riff, the beautiful harmonies and not least Dave L's powerful vocal. Above all, the deeply emotional subject matter is perfectly captured. I only wish two things: that I had been there to see it and that an official live recording is released! Bravo guys and gals, this was magnificent.

[@Groosome128]

Heard The Underfall Yard on my local radio station and the drums sounded great among other things. When I looked them up and saw Nick D on drums I recognised him from Sweetwater gear demos. He always gets a great sound. I'll be listening to more of this group :)

[@jeffconciatori5932]

A very special performance by a very special band. thanks much for posting.

[@TheJimyzuc]

tears in heaven.This is the real prog !

[@dougp2917]

One of the most musical, aurally dynamic, and heartfelt songs I've ever heard. Mission accomplished, folks! 🥰

[@sturla75]

Fantastic band and perfomance. I just discovered them today.

[@DonHornsby]

I just discovered them today. A year later. Wow.

[@sturla75]

@@DonHornsby I also got to see them live this last fall. Just a fantastic live band.

[@stewartconacher6552]

Great to see the band performing live.DVD please.

[@carlhedger16]

Utterly Sublime - Incredible Musicians at the Very Very Top of their game - this band should be Massive

[@Heikken]

That was amazing. I really hope they release a set of DVD/Blu-ray's of all three shows.. Hell, even one would be awesome.

[@donward3546]

David, what a glorious, triumphant song and performance by everyone - thank you!!!

[@laurentos1967]

Enfin, je découvre le groupe en live !!!! First time I see them on stage !!!! So great...

[@assetsmanfrance3009]

Congrats ! This performance is already entered in the legend...

[@thomasklimisch4423]

Hope they perform this incredible piece of music this Friday on "Night Of The Progs" at the Loreley.

[@anthony22bob]

Ridiculously tight. I bet the acoustics and mix were phenomenal for the audience as well.

[@kingcurry6594]

With bands like BBT, IQ, Pendragon, Marillion, Riverside (hopefully, if they can overcome their recent tragic loss) and Haken (amongst others) all active, prog is in excellent health.

[@David15597]

You forgot bands like Pineapple Thief, Steven Wilson, Gazpacho, Spocks Beard but I agree prog. rock is looking better than ever. I saw the prog. magazine awards last night, and BBT won best band of 2016. Says it all.

[@ulfingvar1]

Don't forget Devin Townsend, he must be included as "proggy"

[@dennoow]

Yes! Also check out Wobbler. Their new album is absolutely incredible. Airbag is getting better too. And Anglagard is playing again :)

[@allangmiller]

I tell anyone who'll listen to catch The Dear Hunter. Their Act V was prog album of the year in 2016, but there's about 10 hours of their stuff to catch up on, all very high quality.

[@jennycooper5364]

dont forget arena

[@katemurphy1915]

I just love how this IPad manages to find for me more and more music that I would an do love!...

[@elbandsy]

PLEASE DON'T STOP MAKING THIS TYPE OF MUSIC!!

[@ricardoorellana2105]

MAGNIFICO, CUANTO TIEMPO ESPERE ESCUCHAR ESTA MÚSICA, ME HACEN RECORDAR A GÉNESIS, PETER GABRIEL, O MARILLION, PERO CREO QUE SON GENUINOS Y ESPECIALES, OTRA BANDA TREMENDA, UNOS GENIOS!!! IGUAL USTEDES FLACOS NO ME VAN A ENTENDER PERO IGUAL LOS BANCO...............

[@blazingday8596]

Whoever replaces Dave Gregory had better not get this wrong..........Gregory and Gibson in perfect harmony......x

[@steveblomerth]

Nice to see the old band once again...But it will also be good to see what comes with the new Big Big Train.

[@limepile]

If there is one band that picked up the baton that Genesis dropped many years ago, then this is it. I'm a new fan having found them only a month ago, and I can't find a song I don't rate. Awesome.And to top it off, their albums are a really good price from their own web site.

[@stevehodgson8841]

I've just found them

[@caravann26]

Agreed!! just found them now, but it's not new it's a mimicking of the Masters that took your life as a child by the music they made .and .I'm right there with you.

[@caravann26]

I'm delighted to hear these song birds

[@randysmith4331]

I just discovered them a year or so ago, and I’m enjoying immersing myself in the wealth of beautiful music that they have. It’s almost all I listen to lately. Boy, I hope they come to the US like they say they will.

[@anita-qq9iw]

I'll always find prog the most exciting music, I've Just listened to new kid, It must be the A&R person in me but I think he deserves a break. Click on link if you get a chance. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXiXXommgctsjpo

[@javimartinez6517]

Que CLASE tiene esta gente por dios.....

[@stuarthowarth2972]

I had to watch this tonight. I only heard about David yesterday! I cant process the news! RIP David Longdon!!

[@11thEarlOfBlah]

Magnificent. Memories of a magical August evening are flooding back...

[@firefi2]

This had me in tears on the Friday night and it's just happened again, simply perfect!!

[@Bryan8329]

Lovely thing to wake up to. I've heard nothing but the highest of praise for those shows, and from what I've just seen it's certainly well-earned. I do hope there's more coming.

[@ChrisSmith-yv3te]

I am lost for words, emotionally draining, incredible

[@markedwards2063]

Sibelius meets folk and rock together. Truly beautiful and uplifting, with excellent display of team work between the players.

[@paper-art59]

Tears in my eyes. Love this Group! Stunning video, superb live preformance. The contribution of each of the musicians close to perfection both from the technical point of view and from that expressive. I already knew what I had missed having to give up at the last minute, now I have the terrible final evidence...

[@buffplums]

David has one of the most beautiful voices ever and Rachel Halls violin is such a wonderful compliment … oh such delightful music … intelligent and beautifully orchestrated and performed

[@mogensjensen7952]

BIG BIG MUSIC !!!

[@RobinLauren]

This is just absolutely wonderful. Thank you for sharing!

[@TRICO-WANDER]

Miss you Dave ❤

[@rolber]

Simply wonderful...wish i'd been there.

[@MikeGervasi]

RIP David. You will be missed.

[@alexscotland50]

Just a great band and wonderful music deserve to be massive and they will slowly but surely-hope we get an official release of this gig one day -as I was gutted to miss it :(

[@jeffreygrove]

Magical - can't wait to hear/see more!

[@SpikeWorsley]

*sigh* perfect

[@buffplums]

Beautiful sound… love Ben Godfreys cornet playing so much energy

[@ferrobonfiglioone-manband5659]

What a performance! Especially the guitar part on 07:42 so great! :D

[@adam872]

+Ferro Bonfiglio (One-man Band) I thought it was good on the album, but it's even better live isn't it.

[@carlhedger16]

Sure is couldn't agree more

[@martinclarke250]

Stunning!!

[@progrock21]

The use of the brass in this is sheer genius, an epic that crosses genres.

[@progrock21]

Ferro Bonfiglio (One-man Band) Agree the guitar part is fantastic, love the crescendo at 6.12 too.

[@Cosmograf]

Fantastic, just brilliant work. Congratulations guys.

[@iraz3612]

Really great. Please consider coming to Los Angeles. We finally got Steve Hackett here last year and his tour was a great success. You all look like you're enjoying yourselves onstage.

[@aandybandy11]

still brings me out in goosebumps on my tingle factors , sublime .

[@katemurphy1915]

This IPad is filled to the gills with music both, old and new!!

[@MichaelEllisOfTenDeg]

How in bloody hell does anyone still keep playing during this intense piece? I can't keep my eyes dry for ten seconds...

[@MRWATSiT2YA37]

This sounds as good or better than the studio version. I've only discovered BBT this month and I am blown away.

[@chicago_drummer7012]

Get it Nick!! Great to see a fellow Paisano tear it up. 🍻

[@jimmartin2416]

An amazing performance by my favorite band! I beg of you, please release a blu-ray / DVD recording of these concerts, or even just a digital download. I'd be more than happy to crowdfund / preorder it!

[@jreid641]

Man, what a piece of work! Unbelievable! Everyone of these guys (and girl) are monsters! These songs and this band are incredible.

[@kasuu5821]

Truely a masterpiece, presented by fantastic musicians.

[@randysmith4331]

Please, oh please have The Train roll across the Atlantic for a nice long tour.

[@sgtLPH]

Really really great! Fantastic work everyone! :)

[@gerardgioda1985]

Absolutely wonderful !!! can't wait for the Blue ray !!!! and what a work from Rijkard , it's a real plus value for BBT !!! i love you men !!!

[@jeffconciatori3512]

Regardless of genre this is a phenomenal piece of music. This is the last song I received from my buddy Fleemur (RIP) during our weekly music exchange and it hasn't been topped yet. Cheers to friends.

[@fryk2462]

Sjoblom and D'Virgilio play on the NBA of musicians...killer solo!!!!

[@girugamesh9001]

This performance brought me tears of sheer joy. What a wonderful performance. I certainly hope the performances this past summer were the first of many yet to come.

[@BTBAM819]

Classic prog may have been excellent... but nowdays we have some awesome shit like this band! Brilliant performance! I love Longdon's voice so much!

[@tonyjoslin]

As good as I remembered it on the Friday night! Well done, guys.

[@KevinJarnot]

Damn, that's fantastic. Would love if BBT played in the Boston area. :-)

[@Drifter21031971]

Bravo! Thank you for the heartfelt performance! Thank you for the true english enunciation. Keep it alive please.

[@frankhomusic]

Wonderful song and flawlessly sung and played. We saw the Friday show and I was wondering how they could perform such complex and subtle compositions live....here's the answer.
