Where Did I Go?

Justin Currie What Is Love ForJustin Currie, Del Amitri's voice and source of the band's pathos, has released "a sumptuous set of lovely, meticulously arranged songs, sung with earnest emotion and empathy" called What Is Love For. Allmusic.com has a generally positive review, although it compares it to the "bouncy pop" of Del Amitri. Sure, if you've only heard Roll To Me, I'd give you that. If you're familiar with the rest of Del Amitri's catalog, you can hardly call it bouncy (listening to Change Everything during my moody college days prompted me to say pathetically, "anybody got any razor blades?"). Whatever.
