about

All songs performed by Rags N Riches.
All songs written by Scott Ginn except songs 2,6,10,11 written by Scott Ginn and Phil Bowley
Recorded at Montreux Studios, Sydney - 1990-1993.
Remastered by Scott Ginn at Mazz-XT Music - March-April 2016.

Rags N Riches is high-energy rock with searing guitars and catchy-as-hell songs that you won't be able to get out of your head. It's time to discover this hidden rock treasure!

Rags N Riches were a well known rock band during the late 80's and early 90's on the Sydney (Australia) pub rock circuit with a solid live following. Formed out of the touring band for lead vocalist Scott Ginn's solo album 'One Man Army', they delivered their unique brand of 'Rag 'n' Roll' - a blend of commercial hard rock and hair metal with an emphasis on partying and having a good time. One single was released on coloured white vinyl "Dance baby dance w/ Money can't change your mind".
The band's debut album 'Shipwrecked out in the street" was recorded between 1990 and 1993 at Ginn's Montreux Studios but was never released. The band stopped performing after 1993, and the recorded archive of Rags N Riches material sat idle for many years. During 2015-2016 Ginn digitally remastered the original recordings. Finally, after more than 20 years this fine album is released here for the first time.

The band has recently reformed to do live shows to promote the release of this album.

Reviews:
" if you were there or you love the Hair Metal era and are curious to see how good the Aussie scene was these are pretty much essential buys."
"The best part of course is that they still stand up, they are good solid songs that you can’t help feel could easily have made a mark had they been from the West Coast of America rather than the East Coast of Australia." Mark Rockpit - The Rockpit
