Where the rose is sown

One of my favourite BC song performed at Rockpalast in March 1986 .

[@eckie4679]

What a great bass player 😊

[@chrisd19844]

tony butler is a legend

[@chasmith2111]

This was just 4 great musician who were meant to meet each other. Best live band and a band that should have been massive.. full stop..

[@stephenkelly1887]

I think that we all forget that Mark and Tony as a rhythm section were as tight as a gnat's chuff. Awesome live band. I seen them many times and eventually got to work with them. Many times after a Barrowland gig I'd go home a stone lighter due to the amount of sweat! Happy days

[@markbrad123]

Big Country Tattoo, they should really play in kilts. Great tribute to our fallen brothers.

[@attilakovacs9749]

Sounds absolutely amazing. RIP Stuart.

[@moletown8585]

This is what I believe is known as....A Band!

[@dougdean8996]

Such a beautiful written meaningful song that strikes straight to the heart. This is poetry that should be talked about and interpreted in schools.

[@jerryfirth6985]

RIP Stuart

[@Nickthebassist01]

Awesome bassline, awesome bassist, awesome tone

[@wardadams]

Best band of the 80s and beyond.

[@loutiscrive]

[@Dazbigg]

Tony's bass playing in this is just great !!!

[@karlbaird3385]

[@scottclark7889]

[@gmansi]

It was a hard part to play?

[@dangermouse6561]

RIP Stuart. You inspired me an inquantifiable amount in my teens. Thank you.

[@rockmitchell1564]

Steel town is one of my favorite albums from the 80s and this is my favorite song from that record.

[@tysongarrett8688]

Have every album..+DVD...lucky to see them in LA at the Palace...right after steeltown...just one of the best shows ever....Steeltown...the best album...but all good....very tight band...stuart..very underated guitarists....just ask the edge...but each of them..great players...drummer amazing......one of the greatest bands.....Europeans will tell you that...in america..all you hear is one song...in a big country....sad....they are not one hit wonders....they...sold..millions of albums.....and....have so many great songs that never get played......their music still stands the test of time...

[@ultramet]

Who’s watching this in 2021 still trying to figure out how the hell they made guitars sound like bagpipes? These were indeed outstanding musicians. RIP Stu.

[@gmansi]

Absolutely Brilliant Band, Loved Them Then And They Are Still The Greatest Band Ever.

[@philipthompson156]

This is An All Time Classic Track.

[@philipthompson156]

They Are And Were All Awesome. The Best Band Ever.

[@xaviercoello-beseke5843]

Stu and Tony are amazing playing this song....

[@davecoalwood9487]

Big Tone's fun at playing is a big part of how good this lot were. They are fucking brilliant.

[@roymeadows1708]

The full Rockpalast gig was on here until it was removed last year..Now it`s been butchered and sold as a DVD..Fantastic gig by one of the best bands of all time..RIP Stuart. :)

[@aardvarkmcgillicuddy]

I saw them in Birmingham....many, many, steel and metal workers were there...it was like coming home...they were spot on......

[@Pookerly]

awesome-guitars, bass, everything! was lucky enough to see these twice-brilliant

[@christopherbeniston8774]

Saw big country 4 times in the eighties. Fantastic at every brilliant gig!!!🤟🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

[@marleybu7984]

I love Yamaha guitars. The SGs were amazing. Love when BC use them. Phenomenal band. I was lucky to see them many times in the 80's and every gig was superb. R.I.P STUART 😢

[@johnmacintyre6231]

Loved his yellow esp

[@raymondweiss2707]

Steeltown is a perfect fucking record, not a single mediocre song on it.

[@christopherbeniston8774]

Bloody marvellous! Still a great band. Sad tho thinking Stuart Adamson no longer with us. All ways have his musical legacy to enjoy 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@peteralgie1778]

as an old mud crawler this my fav big country track its total anti war not anti soldier we never started wars but died when they started why not sent the rich and titled to war not the working class who will never own the world unlike the rich who live of our labour

[@sethpentola7755]

still outstanding

[@jaime57473]

They had it all

[@vittorio8112]

Semplicemente grandiosi

[@frankstared]

One of the best tunes ever with one of the best antiwar messages, too. Incredible!

[@jamiericci-martinez6691]

Love this song. RIP Stu!

[@pawnoir]

Une de mes chansons préférées, un de mes batteurs favoris, merci pour ce live !

[@aarondavies5363]

The greatest band ever

[@Luca-ll4gn]

Bellissima band!!

[@allsaunders317]

To see them so young so talented so full if life and it all went down hill because of what is a medical condition music makes me happy the rest sad

[@Ay45Sa]

my feelings exactly

[@cavanking]

This song, C'est Magnifique Isabellle !!!!!

[@roymeadows1708]

RIP Stuart....rock legend..Gone far too soon.. :(

[@kenspedding4594]

Saw them twice in Liverpool, without doubt the best live band I ever saw. Music is still as good then as it is now, still have the Crossing & Greatest Hits in my car which gets blasted out on my way to work on nights to get me in the mood. RIP Stuart a true genius greatly missed.

[@roymeadows1708]

Rockpalast gig has been butchered for DVD..One of the best gigs of all time for me..Big Country..Greatest band of all time..Rest in peace Stuart.

[@thymusictoo364]

my god they’re amazing live

[@soyghost1]

phenomenal...reminds me of early allman brothers just in terms of a big, awesome live band...these guys were brilliant, each and every one

[@stefets]

OMFG!

[@bfbjr]

I think I am the first to view this video here! Big Country rules all!!!!!!!!

[@damienh4357]

12 years later, I might be the last. Still the best band ever.

[@skapaul69]

This song got me into big country .still have the 7" single .great to hear and see them live.keep up the good work

[@arnaldomalta7951]

minha banda favorita única e especial de todos os tempos

[@ascent7]

one ma fave driving songs.

[@neilherlihy4549]

Perfection 🙌

[@TheRitterX]

Man kann sich nicht vorstellen, dass man das besser spielen kann als die 4. Punkt .Der Text bringt Dummheit von Krieg und Mensch auf den Punkt. Sowas gutes wird es nicht noch einmal geben.

[@klausalbrecht3899]

Thanks for Uploading this ,Saugeil!

[@tabrizahaarn1775]

yep thanks for sharing

[@Coppertunes]

@dbc1dc That was Bruce's guitar that went all to pot, he is playing the intro lead lines here, Stuart is playing the toned down rhythm part. A rare mistake indeed for BC. Nine years on & never forgotten. RIP Stuart

[@johnny5805]

Are you sure ? I've never heard Bruce play a bum note, ever. Whereas Stuart was always messing up.

[@Coppertunes]

@@johnny5805 wow, that was 10 year ago I wrote that. Yes pretty sure, I don't think it was a bum note as such, he may have hit something off camera, or had stumble. You see Tony looking over and smiling after.

[@petermcinnes6987]

fantastic.... except for the shiny suits... which in fairness I had two... and the checked trousers before that too.

[@jackiebrown7229]

The checked trousers were fine 😀

[@simonbowles6910]

Top band

[@PeterLoweSMI]

I do not know to this day why no BC song was used in Lord of The Rings movies as their music had many perfect songs for this sort of thing

[@maxieski]

Bond movies...these guys were the start of big drum/bass rock...legends

[@peteralgie1778]

my all time fav big country track anti war not anti soldier war only happens when our leaders forget how to talk and working class people have to die not the ruling classes

[@HumGuitar]

@dbc1dc Not sure but I think a string might have broke, but if it did, Stu being the great guitarist/musician he is, adapted well.

[@tonyazzopardi8023]

Big Country at their best.

[@bennyrico4205]

class

[@dbc1dc]

Wish I could see what happened with Stu in the intro when the guitar note went haywire, Tony looked concerned. Seemed Stu had some guitar problems at this concert, his guitar wouldn't play at the beginning of Inwards either.

[@hofla7777]

I still have to laugh seeing rock musicians in glittering suits, performing in that damn ;-) old Eighties. By the way, one of their best songs

[@ACERAMGAD]

GrrrrrrrreaT!

[@poppyhimbo]

toight! toight like tiger!

[@paulgardner9725]

5 unlikers...??? Fook off n listen to The Dooleys...#Giddytwats

[@frankstared]

How do you mess up mixing this?

[@Diadema033]

Note how the defective soundtrack reduces the 1st guitar leaving at full power the 2nd (B.Watson). Stuart was beautiful, sure he had not the potato nose like others (G.Michael and S.LeBon)

[@bv3bv334]

Music is shit these days
