Man, that’s a lot of Big Country. Some of these are reposts, but I recently recorded them with better equipment, so if you did download them in the past I still suggest downloading them again. The majority are new, however, recent finds by me when someone sold their entire Big Country collection at Jerry’s Records last week.

Now, let me break these down. The first four tracks are from the Japanese EP of “Fields Of Fire.” The live version of “The Tracks Of My Tears” is not the same version that’s on one of Big Country’s live albums.

The two B-sides “Balcony” and “Flag Of Nations (Swimming)” are from the “Harvest Home” 12″ single. The two versions of “Just a Shadow” are from that song’s 12″ single, as is the B-side “Winter Sky.” I have two different versions of the single to “One Great Thing” which is where I grabbed those remixes, as well as “Song Of The South” and the “Look Away (Outlaw Mix).”

“Giant” is from the UK version of the “Wonderland” single, and it’s basically an instrumental version of the album cut “All Fall Together.” The final three tracks are from the Japanese version of the “Wonderland” single.

Enjoy and I’ll see you all next week.

    Thanks for posting these.

    I recently saw the band Titus Andronicus live for the first time, and was shocked (shocked!) to realize how much they were biting Big Country/Adamson’s sound. I expressed my disbelief to my fellow concert-goers and was met with indifference. Okay then.
