Re: Anybody here have met THE MAN personally???

Re: "Josephine"

The version of J. i like most is the Vinyl Shamrock Diaries version.
The version on NLTOW i found a bit to disco.
The life-version on the Farewell-tour and the FHBN are great, because of the "..and J. grew up" part.

Re: concert in Paris

My only consolation right now is that we're going to see BB King in concert at The House of Blues in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, here in the U.S. But that's strictly blues, no rock. Lily Hi, That sounds great. We just had a little BB King at the concert Of Chris when he played "BB is a Coman...

Re: Will I be the first one to see the concert ?

Gerby, Don't know if you can read dutch (you're from Belgium?). This is what I found on Internet. Looks like Chris is doing some of his classic songs too. The Delmonts openen de avond. Met deze groep brengt Chris Rea zijn favoriete instrumentale nummers uit de surf en rythm en blues van de jaren 60 ...

Re: Will I be the first one to see the concert ?

Hi Gerby, Normally we would ask you to put a set-list on the forum, so we know which songs we can expect at the gigs. But I think it will be very difficult this time, because a lot of the songs will be new (at least when CR plays with the Delmonts) and his new album will only be released after the g...

Re: FABULOUS HOFNER BLUENOTES

On http://www.amazon.de i saw the box announced as a socalled EARBOOK.
that's the same concept as his 11 CD-Box Blue Guitars.

They put a picture at the site: 3 CD's (look like vinyl singles) + 2 Vinyl + Book
