Well, I'm suprised to have missed this little exchange a couple of weeks ago . . . but glad to have stumbled upon it before it recedes into the place where escalator steps and old postings go.

"Can You Do Me Good" is a fantastic album, possibly the best released by Del Amitri, and sadly seems to be their swan song.

Justin Currie--what a writer.

I would like more uptempo numbers from him though. I think you can be plenty down and still rock. Look at Alice In Chains, for example. Of course they're partially dead now.

Anyway--glad others are discovering this album. At some point it might be interesting to compare Del Amitri collections & make sure we've all got everything . . . I know I have some rarities culled from various eBay auctions.
