Re: new LP and CD this October 18?

https://store.rhino.co.uk/de/artists/chris-rea.html

Here's the pre-order link for the albums at the official Rhino Shop (in German...:)). Looks pretty interesting - although I'm missing Urban Samurai on the Auberge Deluxe (ok, I know that it was released during the Water Sign era).

Greetings

Does anybody own this Shamrock Diaries CD # 825 539-2 to check which version of Josephine is put on it?
Hi Andrey,

I have the a.m. SHAMROCK DIARIES CD from 1985 - and the Josephine version is running 4,26.

Kind regards

Chris Rea mention on German TV

Hi there, yesterday on THE VOICE of GERMANY (German casting show for singer - a really interesting one): In the jury are different German musicians and a Irish guy from a German rockband (Reamonn). They are sitting backwards to the stage and can only listen to the singer (without seeing him/her) - a...

Oberhausen, 29.02.2012

Just a quick review of this fantastic concert :) The venue (Koenig Pilsener Arena) was filled with nearly 3000 people and they were in a good mood - as was Chris and his band. I won't argue about the fact, that he spoke only a dozen words besides his songs (and ten of these words were the names of t...

Re: Chris Rea in the German Top 10

Hi, just a little correction: Stony Road highest ranking was No.6 in the german Album charts for 10 days. Hi, in the official Album Charts Stony Road reached No. 11 for two weeks - so, Santo Spirito is the first Top 10 CD since 1998...but let's see for how long it will stay in the charts. All the b...

Chris Rea in the German Top 10

Hi,
Chris Rea entered the German Album Charts at No. 10 - that's his highest entry since the Blue Cafe back in 1998. I think that's very impressive!!!

All the best

Hi there,

Re: Anything new ?

Hi there, I must admit I am a little bit disappointed - the new album is just boring. You can hear the influence of Joe Walsh in many of Chris' songs - especially on Electric Guitars which uses Joys of Christmas (heard before in the forum :)) nad sounds a lot like LIFE'S BEEN GOOD (by Joe Walsh). Th...

Re: Chris Rea song or album with special memories

Hi, I just saw this thread so I wanna contribute some thoughts to it :) When I did my military service in Germany in 1993, Espresso logic was released. I was an avid fan of Chris Rea since 1990 and bought every release of him - more than that i tried to get the old 12" vinyls from the early 80s...

Re: News about the upcoming tour

Hi all, I would love to hear IT'S ALL GONE - I like the live version of the Dancing shoes Bootleg and the live version from 1988 Rock am Ring (Radio broadcast - very recommendable!!!). Other songs I'd like to hear are: Bombollini, Seabird, Set me free, All summer long. Auberge - I think that this so...
