4/5/2024 0 Comments Del amitri songsIndeed, if a recent interview with lead singer/songwriter Justin Currie is to be believed, Del Amitri must sell 300,000 copies of this, the band’s sixth studio opus, if they are to remain in the employ of Mercury Records. It’s not that Del Amitri have delivered a half-hearted record with Can You Do Me Good? - it’s actually one of their best and most diverse - it just seems that, for some reason, the band are destined to remain the perennial underachievers of UK rock, gaining all the critical plaudits whilst the likes of Travis, Coldplay and Stereophonics gain all the gold discs. There’s always something slightly predictable about a new Del Amitri album: you just know it will be packed with yet more examples of wonderfully written, intelligent, melancholic tunes, yet deep down you also know that no matter how good they may be, those same songs will probably not propel the band above the level of success they have achieved in the past.
