The second album by Big Country! This was unique and proved highly influential. This re-issue faithfully replicates the original 1984 Mercury Records UK release with gatefold sleeve and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl. Tracks: Flame Of The West / East Of Eden / Steeltown / Where The Rose Is Sown / Come Back To Me / Tall Ships Go / Girl With Grey Eyes / Rain Dance / The Great Divide / Just A Shadow Format: LPCatalogue No. 1 Flame Of The West 2 East Of Eden 3 Steeltown 4 Where The Rose Is Sown 5 Come Back To Me 6 Tall Ships Go 7 Girl With Grey Eyes 8 Rain Dance 9 The Great Divide 10 Just A Shadow With its knotty instrumentation and references to politics, the album has long been a favourite of James Dean Bradfield – it is clear to hear the impact of Big Country on his group, the Manic Street Preachers. Written as a critique of the collapse of industry in the 80s, Steeltown took its inspiration from East Midlands town of Corby, to which many Scots migrated during the Great Depression.
