Waking Hours is the second studio album by Scottish alternative rock band Del Amitri, released in July 1989. It reached number 6 in the UK Albums Chart and featured one of the band's most famous songs, 'Nothing Ever Happens', which reached number 11 in the UK Singles Chart. The album's opening track, 'Kiss This Thing Goodbye', entered the top 40 of the US Billboard Hot 100 when released as a single for the second time.
History[edit]
Many Del Amitri fans consider Waking Hours to be the band's first 'real' album. The post-punk influence of the first album, Del Amitri (1985), had produced a sound radically different to the remainder of the band's output. The first album had been extremely difficult to find for many years, before its 2003 CD reissue, leaving many who became fans in the 1990s totally unaware of its existence. Waking Hours arguably represents Del Amitri's first 'mature' record, and was certainly the first to bring them any mainstream success.
Typically for Del Amitri (the group never made two albums with the same band members), Waking Hours featured some recently introduced personnel: new guitarist Mick Slaven and keyboard player Andy Alston. Despite some important creative input (he contributed to the writing of 'Kiss This Thing Goodbye' and 'Hatful Of Rain') Slaven left the band before the album had even been released. He was replaced by David Cummings, who appears on the album's front cover despite not having played on it. It would also be the last record for drummer Paul Tyagi, who was replaced by Brian McDermott.
