Without sounding like an old fart, compared to artists of today, the humility of these guys just shines through doesn't it. They were brilliant, and knew it, but without all the ridiculous posturing of today. So very glad I was a teen of the 80s ♥

Every time I hear and/or see Stuart Adamson, I am at first joyful, then profoundly sad. Big Country had me as a lifelong fan from the moment the first few notes of In a Big Country blasted out my radio back in the '80s. Guitars sounding like bagpipes? From a Scottish band, pure genius. I had a brief, very positive, chat with Stu on the Big Country message board when I was researching to build a website to honour Skids, his previous band. I respected and admired his passion, and his compassion for his fellow humans that shone through on every song he wrote. Stu was an excellent guitarist, equally adept at planet-smashing power chords or quiet, sensitive passages. This video showcases how well he connected with his devoted fans. He also had the interwoven demons of depression and alcohol. Given that, it wasn't a complete shock when I heard he'd killed himself. I was devastated then, and still feel the echoes of that. Damn, Stu, I hope you made it to a happier place.

Stuart Adamson was such a unique musician and songwriter. His sound will never be replicated. The Crossing remains one of my favourite albums of all time, and never gets boring or repetitive. Stuart Adamson's distinctive guitar sound and personal lyrics, Tony Butler's groovy bass which jumps right out, and Mark Brzezicki's intricate and syncopated drum patterns. This song itself reminds me of my dad and very fond memories of it. A desert island disk for me.

I love big country. They have always been one of my favourite bands. There albums in the 1980s were brilliant. They were one of those groups that you liked strait away the first time you heard them on the radio. And i was a 9 year old kid when this song came out. Its maybe there best single, and album. But there single look away is great as well, that came out 2 years after this in 1985. And by 1988 i had at least 4 of there albums. Its strange how us humans like a song after hearing it maybe once or twice, then some just grow on you to like. Even for as long as 2 or 20 years. But thats the mystery and beauty of music!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely cracking song. Kudos to the drummer - beautiful work on the hi-hat and knows when to strip it the rhythm down and exactly where to place those few beats he does do in those sections. Beautiful resonant sound on the bass drum as well.

The first band I ever saw (edinburgh playhouse). Also the best band I ever saw almost 40 years later. Rest in Peace Stuart , you really are missed.

Had the privilege of seeing them on this tour. It came through the Central Coast of California and my brother and I were first in line to see them at Cal Poly University in San Luis Obispo. We dutifully wore plaid even though the band were past that phase haha but the concert was magnfiicent. Each member of the band gave it their all and were really dialed into the audience. Thanks for posting this! One of my all-time favorite bands and rhythm sections. Res well, Stuart - your heart to connect with people with music really came through in every performance.

I was in the 6th Form at school when the album came out and it was impossible to get away from it but I loved it then and I still love it now. My mates and I were on our first cars and The Crossing was a permanent fixture in the cassette players, good times 😊

I am loving watching them play i wonder if anyone with me while i attempt to share great instruments and the unique sounds so unique. 1 would question the leads guitar abilities renaissance soundstage there's absolutely no one else that plays like big country lead no one else in 53 years played like him it's not nothing compared to them to this very day. i hope my kids hear this see this version It was a real blast from the past I got it finally I've been searching for years rediscovered OMG thank you goodness gracious finally thank you universe..😊
