A Round of Drinks with Paul Tyagi (Part 1)

Join us next episode for the second and final part of the interview.

Paul Tyagi, Del Amitri’s woolen menswear model during their formative years.

Paul had a look through his Photo archive for this podcast. Don’t they all look so young!

Who says they were a Sweater Band? [I did —Tom]

No wonder they chose Paul for the solo modelling.

Here they are making a little money on the side working as extras in a film that needed American soldiers in 1946 on 24-hout weekend pass.

Can we call this a photo of a gang mugging?

The Road To del Amitri

This is a track from the earliest demo available. The photo is deceiving as the tape was made with the earlier line-up

The first single (if you discount that flexi disc). Interesting because it shows some locations that played a part in the band’s early life, like the old Janitor’s flat at the Washington Street Arts Centre.

The Peel Session

The first single off the album

…then a more adventurous video for the second single

Here’s a live show from Radio Scotland which shows what some of the tracks from the album sounded like on the hoof.
