Renato is the fifth studio album by Italian singer Mina released in December 1962 through Italdisc [it].
Overview
The record is a collection of songs released by Mina mainly in 1962 (with the exception of "Sabato notte" and "Un tale"—they are from 1961). The only new song on the album is "Chopin cha cha". Notably, the album did not include the single "Il disco rotto", released in October 1962, although its B-side "Si lo so" was included on 1963 album Stessa spiaggia, stesso mare.
"Sabato notte" was the theme song for the TV show Studio Uno, while "Stringimi forte i polsi" was the theme song for the TV show Canzonissima. "Eclisse twist" was the main theme song for Michelangelo Antonioni's film L'eclisse. Mina also recorded a French version of this song under the title of "Eclipse twist".
Mina covered the song "Renato" in French and in the original Spanish version, "Renata". She also recorded the original version of "Da chi" ("Y de ahí") and a Spanish version of "Chihuahua". All the songs were published, during the 1990s, in different unofficial compilations (Notre etoile, Mina latina due, Mina canta in spagnolo).
