1st guest: Jim Schubilske

  • Jim’s personal Big Country story
  • A discussion on the various Big Country live eras + looking at live versions of specific songs

2nd guest: Steve Coulter

  • Steve’s personal Big Country story
  • How working at a record store gave opportunities to stay on top of & promote Big Country releases
  • Steve’s Big Country live experience, including a report from Big Country’s unique (and very short) appearance at the 1980s show in Los Angeles on 15 February 2020 – when they shared a dressing room with MC Hammer’s dancers

3rd guest: Iain Chambers

  • Iain’s personal Big Country story
  • Iain’s Big Country live experiences, with memories from several shows
  • We discuss the band’s musical development and Iain’s somewhat unusual perspective: he likes the first five albums, but lost interest from Buffalo Skinners and for the rest of their 1990s output

THOMAS KERCHEVAL – “Autumn Waltz” (from the Rail EP, released 2017)
