Roddy Frame - Bigger Brighter Better (Live on Later)

[levaque30081]

Great song :-)

[racinsnake100]

never have i seen anyone as comfortable with an acoustic guitar

i am in utter awe at this guys poise

a genius and an outstanding songwriter east Kilbride's finest and a scottish treasure

[MrSpongerockman]

total quality Mr Frame!! you are a genious for sure....wish the solo at the end was on the studio version>awesome!!

[Simulationofvirtue]

Great song & having Craig Gannon on backing guitar is a superb embellishment to this excellent track.

[justjamesok]

Roddy Frame !! He is a legend. He's been my hero since school. No matter what music is out there I always come back to Roddy. To meet anyone in the world - dead or alive - it would be Mr frame. Bigger brighter better. Lover...leave me..and bring the world back to me..

[JulioCarlos69]

genio!!! aztec camera es mi banda de todos los tiempos y lo sera siempre

[TheAlfie66]

Very talented songwriter and musician. One of my favorite songs by the great Roddy.

[ramdoug]

I just Looooove this song. Not sure if we love these artists because of their songs or if its because they remind us of our youth.....possibly both...

[deBuchias]

Roddy Frame wrote "Down The Dip" at 15 - That is just mucical genious. I play guitar and sing, but people like Roddy just understand it from the off - which saves alot of time- LOL - well in my case...

Cheers all

Roddy Frame is one of the most under rated songwriters and best singer songwriters of all time. Listen Hard. Work it out and LOVE HIM!!! Swoon,

[brendan101]

Roddy Frame is a gift from God.

[pdscotia]

Gracias.

[shackbhoy]

He makes it all seem so annoyingly effortless and , i suppose, to him , it is !!!

The swine.

As good as it gets .

[brendan101]

Roddy continues to "WOW" me again and again....a gift to the world and a musical genius.

[BruisedArcade09]

Amazing song, i have a day every now and then when i just listen to Aztec and Roddys solo stuff why that man is'nt as well known as the crap in the charts is beyond me

[noels1eyebrow]

Fucking brilliant....now't else to be said.

[aligibbo1]

have loved him since the age of 14, biggest travesty in the UK music industry. He is a genius and deserves so much more recognition, an absolute star! love ya roddy!!!!! xx

[carolinebobol]

Bravo pour ce post, là j'aime internet quand on y trouve de tels petits bijoux... En France, Roddy est un inconnu, sauf pour quelques rares initiés et j'en fait partie!!! Continue à nous enchanter avec ta musique bien à toi Roddy et puis si en passant tu pouvais venir gratter la guitare chez nous, ce serait le plus beau cadeau qu'on pourrait me faire....

[haznick]

What a fantastic acoustiuc guitar solo at the end. Such a shame it's not on the studio version.

[AyeWeCan]

the guitar solo is just so good.....ends too soon

[JanHaarlem]

Brave words in bold relief...

Gorgeous

[doublekick777]

nice one terl. godbless . ian from scotland. remember me . cry cry.

[fiveover]

Roddy remains underrated. I wish he'd come to America. I last saw him in Dec. '87 at the Wiltern in L.A.

[ClaresStuff]

He's certainly the best singer / songwriter I can think of any time soon and isn't he so goddam sexy in this video,mmm, yum.

[roddyframe123456]

"Strings"....off North Star..i just can't listen to it at the moment..its breaking my heart..Kimberley my beautiful girl no longer wants me and i'm not sure i can take that..I guess I'll be going Down the Dip..Arriva Derci!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[roddyframe123456]

Class....first saw Aztec Camera in Dingwalls in Newcastle in 83, we were stood next to Edwyn Collins...loved Roddys' stuff ever since!!...the best singer/songwriter ever ??..i don't know but personally for me he is!!

[Reluctant5]

I preferred 'Too Much Acid' but this is still special.

'Go on there, Rod'

[r1ffpilchard]

The way Roddy closes his eyes and looks down at 0.43 is great. He's really feeling it, something absent from modern music.

[CeVeBeethoven]

I saw Roddy touring as a guitar player with the Smith's circa 1986 in San Diego. Johnny Marr + Roddy Frame on stage together was guitar heaven. Would love to find some live footage from that tour.

[bigschnib]

anyone know where to get a tab or chords for this?

[Obeliskeyes]

Man of inspiration...hardly to find any musician like him these days...

[piercoucy]

You're right. It seems that the more a singer writes and sings rubbish, the more likely is to succeed. But talking about art, this guy can say his own original word.

[jlcsilva]

it´s very hard to find roddy´s or aztec´s records here in brazil...great song, great voice and guitar! one of the best artists from uk!

[loparto]

Great song, great performance, great Roddy. "You and I like a minesweeper".... great all.

[SilentLD]

Anybody know when this recording took place? A brilliant song and very well performed live. Love the Spanish guitar solo at the end, but Roddy -- you don't suit sleeveless Tshirts!! XX see you soon (Newcastle?)

[echocd]

1998 "The North Star" Album

[billyjd63]

Great song,my only bug bear is the fact that he didnt do the solo guitar break on the album.Gotta come onto youtube evrytime i wanna hear it which sucks a bit.

[katiejane70]

Roddy is fantastic. This song gives me goose pimples!, my only regret is that I haven't listened to his music for years. Thank you youtube for reminding me how brilliant he is.

[hebburncurly]

i agree

[hebburncurly]

i agree

[stanblake]

Just simply the most underated singer songwriter there is. A TRUE genius.

[Egurenkone]

Beautiful guitar solo...

[fiveover]

my oh my the guitar solo!

[kevthedentist]

Possibly one of the greatest acoustic guitarists this country ever produced. Wrote his first album at 17 and Mark Knopfler jammed with him on the second album, stopped , put his guitar down and admitted defeat.

[skanky79]

love this performance, no-one can do music like roddy. wish he was playing somewhere in london soon, would love to see him live.

[Finbar6363]

Too many years - not enough Roddy music. He's utterly brilliant!

[williamandtrix]

One of my Fave's....What a song, great live (as always)

[tricia3007]

Thank you for posting.... I simply adore Roddy....

Peace :~)

[tricia3007]

Brilliant.....

[mnx17dk]

Nice to see this one up again. Thank you so much.

[gossard99]

Always loved Roddy Frame. Saw him him in concert in Glasgow several years ago just by himself on stage and my god he was good then too :-) I'd rate him up there with Neil Finn as a songwriting talent.

[townmousestew]

Fantastic!!!
