Great voice, great guitarist. I hope he gets back in the game soon.Rolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02103804480646939038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-67461588651730485912018-03-05T21:42:02.277+00:002018-03-05T21:42:02.277+00:00Years ago a friend of Mr SDS was at home with his ...Years ago a friend of Mr SDS was at home with his parents; he came downstairs to find them watching Chris Rea in concert on TV. "Why are you watching this? I didn't know you liked Chris Rea!" he said. <br />"We're waiting for him to do 'Lady In Red'" his mum replied.Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-82706488293379250452018-03-05T13:19:26.408+00:002018-03-05T13:19:26.408+00:00Josephine is the one that does it for me, great tr...Josephine is the one that does it for me, great track.

First heard of Chris Rea when a mate started raving about "Fool (If You Think It's Over)". That was about 40 years ago. Over the years I bought a few of his singles, but never albums. There were songs like ""Let's Dance" & "On The Beach" that I really liked. Sorry to hear he's been in hospital. He's one of those artists whose music I lost touch with over the years.

He had his pancreas, part of his duodenum, bile duct, and gall bladder removed as long ago as 2001, following a diagnoses of pancreatic cancer, has subsequently endured several further major operations and has to imbibe a daily cocktail of medications to firm up his immune system and ward off diabetes. He also suffered a stroke in 2016. Throughout it all, he continued to record and tour. I salute you Mr Rea and sincerely hope that you beat this latest assault on your fragile health.The Swedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237251779370596904noreply@blogger.com
