9th book of the year. Long awaited. Big Country were my 1st gig, 1st band I saw more than once, and the 1st band I travelled out of Bristol to see. Not seen any of the post Adamson line-ups
Not many celebrity deaths hit me, probably only Stuart Adamson and Terry Hall tbh.

Shout!
Come up screaming, come up screaming
Ha!
I've never seen you look like this without a reason
Another promise fallen through
Another season passes by you (Shout!)
I never took the smile away from anybody's face
And that's a desperate way to look for someone who is still a child

Amazing Stuart Adamson. Much missed #BigCountry youtu.be/krmIQstuoUw?...
Front cover of Steel Town by Big Country. An industrial stylized artwork with mine shafts and smoking chimneys.
The LP of Steel Town on the turntable.
This album is one of my wife’s that came with her when we started living together - I don’t think I’ve ever played it. Gave it a clean today and did a bit of background reading on them, and we’re having a glass of wine and listening now. So far it’s not unpleasant. #BigCountry #vinyl

U2 envied Stuart Adamson’s talent. Why did he die alone, 7,000 miles from home? share.google/oHwlYeSyplYU...

Już raz udało mi się podwójne C (Clapton, Collins). Dziś podwójne B, Big Country i Kate Bush.
Kaseta z ta płytą spiłowała mi na pewno głowicę w magnetofonie bo grałem ją na okrągło w 1986 roku latem...
Dziś taki piękny duecik Adamson-Bush 🥰🥰🥰🎸🎶🎵

A long overdue biography of my musical hero Stuart Adamson.
It would be great if his talent finally got the recognition it deserved.
