I think I must have 250 Chris Rea songs on my iPod. His songwriting, voice and guitar playing never get old for me.

One of musics unknown or at least unrecognised guitar heroes.
Seen him many times always a treat.
Listen to the last track, on Road to Hell, Tell me There's a Heaven and not cry . An encapsulation of why music can be so emotional , and a prime need to us.

Unapologetic about loving this song. Chris Rea has always been a sort of "out-of-hearing, out-of-mind" kind of artist for me, but every time I hear one of his songs, I do the forehead-fwap and think, "WHY don't I have more of his music?!" Note to self: GET more of his music, dummy!  |

can't wait to see him on stage
I saw him last week live in Munich. Great show, he is a fantastic guitar-player. He played 70% new songs (instrumentals and blues) and 30% old songs in a new way. I really enjoyed it. He's still on tour! |
