Tony Butler has a very underrated bass sound. It's very powerful and clanky (I mean that in a good way), almost reminiscent of punk bass but in a more new wave context. It's thanks to him and Mark Brzezcki that Big Country grooved, the rest of the band added that folk element.
My dad use to play big country to me ..and he said they was great live.. and he saw loads of great bands... I played with a drummer who stood in for them once.. a guy called Brian...who lived near stewart .. Nice guy ... Great band .Great sound...Great fun
Hi, thanks for your comment! Unfortunately, this is why we have the apology on screen throughout the full video - this interview was taken as part of a book series and, at the time, we had no intention of releasing it as audio. Thanks for watching :)

This guy's great, great tone too !
Tony B the G.O.A.T.
Really interesting interview some what spoilt by the audio quality of an interview done over the phone
yeah absolutely - I am very sorry - we tried out best to clean it up which made some of it quite good and some quite bad. We did try our best.
What year was this interview? Is it recent?
Is this a joke ? You can’t hear anything ?
This is extremely difficult to listen to.
