[auto4union]

Great film "Restless Natives" but getting BC to do the soundtrack was a stroke of genius ! Could do with seeing it again ! Peace Ye`All !

[SpartanPict]

1985 minus 240 years = 1745. Jacobite reference?

[Burghbhoy1]

[Cornubia78]

I was 6 when the film "Restless Natives" came out, but after seeing the film i became an instant Big Country fan

[padraigmarcus]

first of all...thanks to the one that posted this gem...as a a huge Big Country fan, i have never seen this one before. for the one dislike, you have a place in hell reserved for you.

[Falwiz]

Must be because Marks not on drums

[adekkerwk]

This was 1990, they did a few gigs on a row at the Town & Country Club in London. Brilliant!



[MbdslEst1964]

@adekkerwk 1990? If so, I was there!

[mjolnir272]

Yehaww :)

[simes6600]

songs like this make you remember just how good a songwriter and singer Stewart was. but fuck, this vid make me remember just how good a guitar player he was too.

[MONGIE999]

love big country

[MONGIE999]

osis could not live with this band.oasis where fucking shit.

[parvezsiddiqui]

I know exactly when this was. August 10th 1990!! Day after my birthday. I bought 20 tickets, and had my party at the gig...was an unbelievable night! Only one ticket got unused, and I've still got it, stub n'all.

Seen them so many times, I lost count.....never missed a rock star so much...

RIP SA.

[aitutaki04]

[norman2462]

a true son of scotland. forever in our hearts.RIP.stuart

[Glenn18882]

RIP Stuart great band

[iluvtunes1]

Gotta laugh at people who bring BC down,every bit of live footage you watch,wherever it is the crowd really go for it,name any bands that get that type of reception anywhere they go,this footage is from england,saw them loads of times,best live band bar none.

[vecuccio]

Look at the guy, so healthy and full of energy !

This version is hamstrung by Pat Ahearn on drums, he really, REALLY sucks compared to Brzezicki !

[Tommygun909]

Absolutely phenomenal!!

Is this gig available on DVD to buy ?

[mcs1hr]

I was there - August 1990, Town and Country Club, Kentish Town. Marvellous stuff

[petral03]

...can't tell how much I miss you, Stuart...

[Stough76]

Think this is from NPLH era,excellent and is that Dunfermline shorts Stuart has on lol

[geordiebloke61]

was at the recent newcastle gig with mike peters on vocals, and they are still a brilliant live band. Stuart sadly missed though but full credit to bruce and jamie watson, tony and mark and mike, brilliant gig and great to hear these songs getting played again

[rojdodge]

That is an awesome song!!! Thumbs up if you agree!! :-)

[JustAShadowBC]

Through summer sun

And winter snow

The eagle, he was lord above

And rob was lord below.

Best band ever in existence..

[padraigmarcus]

There's nothing bad that can be said about any of the "players". Only good. If you don't see it, then how sad for you.  Hopefully, you won't reproduce.

[777system777]

Just watched "restless natives" tonight for the first time in decades, WOW what a trip back to my youth! makes me want to be Scottish :D awesome, just awesome!!

[Gregor1able]

ROB ROY !! Clan MacGregor ! Ard Choille Big Country !!

[50015ben]

Probably the greatest ever soundtrack!

[showusyertube]

I wish I didn't enjoy playing music so much! NOT!

[SheWoreLemon83]

Needless to say, the music speaks for itself...it would be more productive to point out that clearly Stuart just came from the gym, which is especially obvious at 1:49. Also, on an even more productive note...he was a total fox.

[sgtwilkosbarmyarmy]

Wowe Wow Wow!!!!! A great band, Stuart, your voice will stay with me forever! Dreams stay with you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RPZ501]

What a 80's haircut,

RIP Stu, there will never be another like U !!!

[MrDavidhampson]

This band were amazing both live and studio.

Had the very good fortune to see them live loads.

[mcs1hr]

This was August 1990.....I bought a ticket from a tout when I heard the first chords and literally ram into the old T&C. It was broadcast a few weeks later on BSB...remember the satellite company with the squarial?

Magnificent gig, one of my all time faves and god this song is good.

[wardadams]

I learned to play better bass listening to Big Country. One of my all time favorite bands. Their music is timeless.

[GOLLYSKYWOOD2]

An excellent live version of a wonderful Big Country song, written for the Restless Natives film. Stuart is in sublime form here with the passion of his vocals and his outstanding guitar work. Pat Ahern is not as good as Mark Brzezicki on the drums though.

[steviecuz]

I was at this gig - it was filmed for something on SKY TV (which I couldn't afford at the time) if I remember right

[chtpcpo]

Truly awesome

[schotte681]

absolutly brilliant

[dbc1dc]

Wow, you can really tell the difference when Mark isn't there though.

[twonky721]

Just listen to Tony's bass line's here at the intro, it's humming continually every once in a while taps the string to re-new the note again, personally i don't think I've heard a into quite like this before. . . BC show extreme attention to detail within their music, Tony's bass line melodics are really quite supreme, just like the rest of the band.. . . . .rip Stu.

[TheFullyscaled]

Love it!!!

[bigbigjoel]

@twonky721 I think Butler is one of the top bassists of all time. He did some great work with Pete Townsend too (Empty Glass) that you might want to check out.

[twonky721]

@bigbigjoel yo ! I heard Tony's bass line in "Heart Of the World" last year and it too is as good as RN intro. . I tried playing bass last week and it's not for me. Let's Rock.

[debbieedeedoo]

Friggin awesome,wish I coudda been there x

[megakingkong]

That's not Mark on drums, is it?

[alangibson73]

No it's Pat Ahern

[aarlevanbram]

nice haircut ;-)

[oldhawkins]

Stu is having a blast here ...unbelievably awesome!

[sportexchangeshop]
