How we made: Big Country on Chance

The idea of wearing checked shirts came from Bruce Springsteen - plus you could buy them cheap at Millets!'

I knew [singer/guitarist] Stuart Adamson when he was in Skids and I was in the Delinquents and all the bands in Dunfermline used to rehearse in stables next to each other. When Skids were doing their third album he said to me: Wouldn't it be great to do a twin guitar thing?" I thought he was just being nice. Then after Skids split he knocked on my door and said: Remember that conversation? Do you still want to do it?"
