Day 12. del Amitri - Waking Hours. An album that marked my move into real adulthood. Responsibility, children, regret. The usual stuff. Exposed by Justin Currie's lyrical scalpel. How can one man and his band be able to see me so clearly? It's a remarkable record

4/6 Justin has always been very generous to me in terms of my songwriting, and I’m not so sure that I’ve ever made him aware of how much I appreciate his. I think, I thought that he would just be aware of that. But maybe not.

3/6 I saw the early Del’s play at the Greek restaurant ( can’t remember what it was called bryan tolland?) at Charing Cross in Glasgow to twenty people when they were doing their residency there. I bought the Sense Sickness single. I loved that first album!

2/6 asked him to pass on my regards to justin currie. I’ve known Justin for a long time. We go way, way back. The young Justin had a romantic connection in Bellshill with a person who was, and still is, a very good friend (hello Ann Marie).
