The 1984 Listening Post - Big Country - Steeltown

Big Country - Steeltown

Big country
Steeltown
3 out of 5

Highlights:
East of Eden

Is Big Country the Scottish Midnight Oil? Not only do I feel that that’s correct, the deja vu of this record has me wondering if I wrote that very thing last time but I’m too lazy to check.
“Where the Rose is Sown” is a redux if “In a Big Country” and the rest of the album follows that same motif.
BC has a sound, like Midnight Oil, U2 and others. It's big, it's Important(!), it's concerned about...stuff. It doesn't warrant revisiting.
