The following info is from the Rinaldi Sings websiteWith the release date of the debut Rinaldi Sings album drawing closer, Steve Rinaldi has been back into the studio to record a new version of ‘Come Fly With Me’ for release as a single by Tangerine Records. Written by Steve Rinaldi and substantially different from the forthcoming album version of the song, the single has a provisional release date of March 14. To give fans full value for money, the new ‘Come Fly With Me’ will be coupled with two previously unreleased songs, ‘Romeo And Juliet’ and ‘Julie Barber’. Northern soul stomper ‘Romeo And Juliet’ was part of the original album recording session but was held over when single ‘Avenues & Alleyways’ made the final cut, while ‘Julie Barber’ was recorded soon afterwards for use as a b-side. Both songs were co-written by cult singer/songwriter Paul Bevoir, who worked on the album as part of the production team. The songs started life as Steve Rinaldi compositions, but so impressed was Bevoir that he added lyrics to the verses of the unfinished songs while recording was underway (as he did with album track ‘This Time Tomorrow’). Both songs make the three-track single an exciting proposition. While in the studio with producer Ian Shaw working on the new version of ‘Come Fly With Me’, Steve also recorded a radical reworking of the Redskins song ‘Hold On’ for a forthcoming Redskins tribute album, to be released by Redstar Recordings.

Rinaldi Sings make the charts of this months Mojo magazine Readers Top 10 with Lucky 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".

(Rip & Burn), while singer/songwriter Steve Rinaldi has been described as "a Scott Walker for the 21st century" (NME). Despite not being released until next week, it featured among the Best Albums Of 2004 in the annual music critics poll in New York's Village Voice newspaper.

The new single by Rinaldi Sings "Come Fly With Me" is out today (14th March) on Tangerine Records. The track is a completely different recording of the song from the one featured on the debut album "What's It All About?". The addition of northern soul–style stomper "Romeo And Juliet" and the Kinks–ish "Julie Barber" make this CD single an essential purchase, as all three songs are unavailable elsewhere. Rinaldi Sings will also be appearing this Saturday (19th March) at The Metro Club, 19-23 Oxford Street, London W1. This gig will be followed at 11pm by The Blow Up Club. For more information on Rinaldi Sings check out the website at www.rinaldisings.com

For those of you unable to tune in on the web last night to listen to Steve Rinaldi’s accoustic performance on BBC Radio Merseyside, the evening went well. Presenter Spencer Leigh played the new single ‘Come Fly With Me’, plus ‘A Matter Of Life And Death’ and ‘Avenues And Alleyways’ from the ‘What’s It All About?’ album. The accoustic session and interview were divided into two sections, at the beginning and end of the show - with a long interview with Steve Ellis of the Love Affair sandwiched inbetween. Backed by Rinaldi Sings guitarist Chris Borsberry, Steve performed stripped down versions of ‘Lucky Day’ and ‘Happy’. Steve Rinaldi will be making another accoustic appearance on Tuesday March 29 on Steve Foster’s BBC Radio Suffolk drivetime show. It is likely that Rinaldi Sings will perform at about 6.15pm.
