Good find I don't think I've ever seen Big Man performed (OK, mimed) by the band before. Nice one 👍

I hate Jealousy, grrrr, awful song. I would have headed off home after Dear John to be honest.

I quite like jealousy. Shoot me!
Big man sounds like someone slowly turning a vice on Alan’s balls. The vocals are awful. Way out of his range and to be honest the worst thing he ever wrote with the band. God knows what they thinking was with this performance. Bizarre choice of songs dear John aside.

Whereas I can feel that same vice on my balls when listening to Jealousy. It has a great effect on the voice though, as I'm almost capable of doing Rossi/Frost backing vocals afterwards.

Well, Jealousy was released as a single in Spain, but I don't know when, maybe it was because of that it was "played" as Like a Good Girl at the same show in 79 or Never Too Late in 81. Big Man...Who knows, like Don't Drive My Car in the same show in 80, that wasn't released as a single here (the second single was Rock 'n' Roll, B-Side Lies). Someone running the program liked the songs I guess?

You can always annoy the neighbours dog playing some Bernie 80-85 backing vocals

You can always annoy the neighbours dog playing some Bernie 80-85 backing vocals I've tested it before. Not working. And it gave me headache

Oh, by the way, most of you didn't notice that the host of the show before Quo, says something like "[...] These are Status Quo, with their own hardest rock (he corrected himself inmediatly with), purest rock".
Yeah, right, Jealousy and Big Man are the hardest songs in their catalogue, of course. Alan must be proud of his song.
