  • This just came on youtube. I'd forgotten it existed, and forgotten t was Del Amitri. Absolutely brilliant.

    @english_bob I've meant to check Big Star out for a while and am just doing so. I like it a lot!
    I'm sure you've already heard some Big Star.  Jeff Buckley covered Kanga-roo.

    I've got all DA albums, and saw them live.  Great band.

  • Since we're back on the Del Amitri love in, can I submit this little gem:



    Love the snare drum from 2:48 (although it's best heard in the context of the whole song). 

    Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.

    I used to share a hairdresser with Justin Currie.

    Great band. They were never quite cool enough for the critics, but too uncompromising to be really mainstream - they just did what they wanted.

    Yep. They were probably at their biggest when I was a teenager and I never thought they were very cool. Great songs, just not very cool. 

    Still, they weathered grunge and britpop...

  • Sorry for dredging  up a 30 month old thread....but how have I missed these lads? As usual I'm always the last to know. Great lyrics, vocals and guitar work. I'm on the lookout for online  TAB or chord books that might be on the market.

    A great live band.  Saw them at Preston Guildhall, which is notoriously rubbish for rock bands with very little atmosphere/ambience.  They were brilliant, really got the crowd going.
