Rimmel (1975) is an album of Italian singer-songwriter Francesco De Gregori. It was released in 1975 by RCA Italia, and is generally considered among De Gregori's finest works, containing some of his most popular songs, such as "Rimmel", "Pablo" and "Buonanotte fiorellino".
[edit] The album
The LP was well received both by critics and public, and established De Gregori as one of the most popular singer-songwriter in his country. It was in fact one the most sold album of 1975 in Italy.
The song "Le storie di ieri" ("The Stories of Yesterday"), was sung by Fabrizio De André in his earlier album written together with De Gregori, Volume 8 (1974). However, the song is entirely written by De Gregori, the version in Rimmel containing minor differences in the lyrics.
Lucio Dalla is credited as co-author of the music for "Pablo" and "Quattro cani" ("Four dogs"), and also probably sings in a choir of the latter song.
