that would be shame....though in the light of the past interest of the updating site, staff would know it around end of the year

I didn´t hear the music at first as well, thanks for the info.
Kind of dark sounding stuff, wonder if that will end up to the new album.....a intro to some song, perhaps...

Now the official site: www.chrisrea.com is "shut down", it has only a question mark and also there´s copyright text with year 2011. Something new is on the way some could say......

I discovered that Chris was playing on an album by David Knopfler, on the album Wishbones he cooperated with some songs, St Swithuns Day (a clear day) for example is one of my favorites :D And some oldie: Wi...

Exactly, this is why i pass this item a lot. I do not care when he has bought a new cat or dog, or if his daughters have new lovers. I am in this because i love his music. Do not get me wrong i want his family to be happy. I have met him. excilerating. But like another fan said. this....... moaning...

Mr. Blues You were the one that asked the question "anything new " originaly -I'm only passing on what I've heard from what I feel is a reliable source. I guess we'll all find out when C.R. does whatever he's going to do. Jim Hello Canada :) Think my Finnish humor did not get response, at...
