More information: Compiled by Gregory Spawton and Alberto Bravin, Big Big Train's Are We Nearly There Yet? collects tracks from a series of performances recorded in 2024 and 2025 on the band’s tours, which visited the UK, USA, Canada, The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Norway, Denmark and Portugal as well as co-headlining Cruise To The Edge in both years.
“Apart from Summer Shall Not Fade, which captured our show headlining the 2018 Night Of The Prog festival in Germany, our previous live albums have been based around shows in London,” drummer Nick D’Virgilio explains. “Having spread our touring wings internationally much more in the last few years, we wanted to mix it up and release a live album drawn from the almost 40 shows we’ve played around the world since March 2024.”
“While our engineer Rob Aubrey will be spending the coming months taking the lead mixing our next studio album, mixing has fallen to me for Are We Nearly There Yet?“, Alberto Bravin comments. “It’s been really interesting to go back through all the performances and choose what we thought were the most appropriate ones to include here. That doesn’t always mean the best technical performance - sometimes a song had a unique vibe on a particular night which we wanted to celebrate.”
This is the triple black vinyl edition in triple gatefold cover.
