The Rinaldi Sings album 'What's It All ABout?' is listed in the staff's
playlists in this month's
Guitarist magazine.

Rinaldi Sings make the charts of this months Mojo magazine Readers
Top 10 with Luck Day. "The one track I can't get off the CD deck at
the moment", says Billy70. "It was the double a-side of their recent
single Avenues & Alleyways, and it's kind of David Bowie/Anthony
Newley circa 1967/68".

The following email was from Biff Bang Pow Records about the Mod Aid
20 single.

Or from the bands website at - http://www.rinaldisings.com

I've just heard that RINALDI SINGS will be playing at The Man On The Moon in
Cambridge
on March 10. Thought I'd let you know as the news hasn't reached the website
yet.

Has anyone got any pics of Rinaldi Sings live that they can post on the site -
or of Steve
Rinaldi making one of his guest appearances with LTS or The Affair?

Well, excatly a year from the band's first gig, the release date of the  debut
Rinaldi Sings
album has been announced. `What's It All About?' will be released by Tangerine
Records
on February 21, 2005. The catalogue number is TANGCD016. The tracklisting will
be as
follows…

1. Happy (Rinaldi)
2. On A Magic Carpet Ride (Randazzo/Pike)
3. Rollercoaster (Rinaldi)
4. Come Fly With Me (Rinaldi)
5. You're Alive (Rinaldi)
6. Lucky Day (Rinaldi)
7. Melody (Rinaldi)
8. Come Again (Rinaldi)
9. A Matter Of Life And Death (Rinaldi)
10. This Time Tomorrow (Rinaldi/Bevoir)
11. Avenues & Alleyways (Murray/Callendar)
12. Heaven Knows (Rinaldi)

Is the track-listing to everyone's satisfaction? What do you think?

From January you will be able to pre-order the album at any record shop through
Shellshock Distribution, through online outlets like Amazon.co.uk, and online
direct from
www.RinaldiSings.com

The deadline for the Redskins tribute is the end of January. So far I
have 9 tracks in and I am waiting for another 7. Currently I'm
looking for a March/April release date for the tribute. Looks like we
will be hearing a bit more of the Redskins next year with Cherry Red
Records hoping to reissue the Redskins album "Neither Washington Nor
Moscow" and Insurgence Records from Canada looking to release a
Redskins DVD. I'm really looking forward to hearing Steve Rinaldi's
cover of Hold on and also the Rinaldi Sings album.


Cheers,
Bazza

The Redskins were a great band. Don't know about Hold On, but think
Rinaldi Sings could do a stomping version of Keep On Keeping On. Any
more details on the Redskins tribute - what's it called, when's it
coming out, who's on it, who's putting it out?

Haven't come across any bootlegs yet, although I was told that the band's live
set at The
garage was recorded for possible release - but I haven't heard it myself. The
best you can
get at the moment is to listen to several tracks from the album on the official
website
(www.RianldiSings.com).

The 'Avenues & Alleyways' single is the only Rinaldi Sings product out
at the moment, but the debut album, 'What's It All About', is being
released by Tangerine Records in January. And I hear that there will
be another single at the same time, but I haven't heard what song it
will be yet. I've been told the A-side will be from the album and the
b-sides will be exclusive to the single. I've heard the recordings of
the b-sides - there's a great uptempo northern sounding number called
'Romeo & Juliet', and a song called 'Julie Barber' which sounds quite
like 'Waterloo Sunset'.

Just heard Rinaldi Sings played on BBC Radio 6 - it was 'Lucky Day'. Anyone
else hear it?

Thanks for the Rinaldi Sings radio session. Thought 'Come Again' was
fantastic - I've heard they occassionally do it live, but I've not
seen them do it
myself. Can't wait for the album. Anyone know when it's coming out and what
tracks are on it?

'LUCKY DAY' is easily my favourite track on the single. Think it's like very
early David Bowie - that great cockney vocal, a bit like Love You Till Tuesday.
What does anyone else think? Best song of the three tracks on the single?

Has anyone got a copy of the Rinaldi Sings radio sessions that were
broadcast on BBC
Radio Merseyside and BBC radio Suffolk? I've not heard them but I've
been told that Steve
performed accoustic versions of a couple of songs - possibly You're
Alive and Come
Again. I'd love to get hold of a copy if anyone has them.

The last I heard there was going to be a new single released this
month. Any one heard
any news about what song it's going to be and when it'll be released?

I've just posted a live picture on this website. If it's any good to
you let me know and I'll send you a better quality version. It was
taken at the band's first gig last December.

fame).
There's also some pics of Steve advertising the event in the window of one of
the big
department stores in town. The exhibition is at Cabaret Voltaire Gallery in
Church Walk,
Colchester until October 8.
