Slowly, It’s Coming Back: Del Amitri reissues
One of the requests most made by fans of Del Amitri are for compilations of b-sides from previous releases. Happily, the entire b-side catalog is being released as part of the album reissues planned by Universal Music. See all the info as cataloged at The Second Disc. Granted, this doesn’t help fans trying to find the bsides from the band’s first release, Del Amitri, but it’s a great way to get your hands on these much-loved tracks.
The track listings are as follows:
Waking Hours: Deluxe Edition (Mercury/UMC (U.K.), 2014)

wow, awesome fellas!! I’ve always been a huge fan of your music and lyrics-beautiful. Thanks so much for all of the listening pleasure:) I think you are one of the very best bands in the world today! CHEERS
No “Someone Else Will” or This Side of the Morning live in a car park 3am” !!!
Why no remaster of Some Other Sucker’s Parade. These are great but that album needed the treatment as well. Just curious
PLEASE! please! please! Re-press this series of 2cd sets! For the life of me I don’t know how I missed these collections.
