Its a very personal\r\nrecord,\" says Nutini, \"but hopefully other people can relate to the\r\nfeelings.\" Many of the songs on the album, including ‘Last Request’ and\r\n‘Rewind, were inspired by a turbulent relationship with a girlfriend, and ‘Jenny\r\nDont Be Hasty’ is a true story about encounters with an older woman.\u003cbr\u003e\r\nDespite the Italian name, the Nutini family have lived in Paisley for at least\r\nfour generations. Paolos great-grandfather opened the fish and chip shop in\r\nPaisley, which his parents now run. Nutini grew up hanging out and later working\r\nin the shop but was always surrounded by music. His grandfather - commemorated\r\nin the elegiac ‘Autumn’ on the album - played him Scottish folk songs by the\r\nCorries and a local priest would often come round to play boogie-woogie on the\r\nfamily piano. Exposure to 50s rocknroll came via his fathers love of the\r\nDrifters, and amongst an aunts record collection he found a Ray Charles album,\r\nwhich began his love of classic soul. Further influences inlcude the work of\r\nsuch classic troubadours as John Martyn and Van Morrison. When the opportunity\r\narose to tour the UK as a roadie for a friends band, Paolo quit school in\r\nGlasgow and the die was cast. After moving to London, he performed regularly at\r\nthe Bedford in Balham, later signing to Atlantic Records shortly after his 18th\r\nbirthday.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e1.
