‘Reminiscing with Friends’ was produced by the band’s long-term collaborator Larry Klein, and Tony will feature on the single ‘Buona Sera Signorina’, which will be available from 13 October.
The single ‘Oh Me Oh My’ with Lulu will be released on 3 November and the first track on the album featuring Peter Noone has already released – the old favourite ‘I’m into Something Good’.
