Is that a REAL Smile Chris?

Ya know...in that photo of Chris with his wife and the other with Josie, those are some of the best pix of Chris I have seen to date. He actually looks relaxed and happy!!! Compare these to recent photos taken of him on his art tour and the difference is astounding. It's almost as if Chris says 'Hec...

The german review translates imperfectly to english but here is the gist of it: "After Chris's medical crisis came a musical crisis. Suddenly his illnesses prescribed him the right to sing the blues? Yes, but as a fan of Chris Rea I am disappointed because it seems the 11 cd sampler is many rem...

Your meeting with Chris

I said once not to long ago that that wasn't much Chris could do that would turn me off to him. HOWEVER, after reading of your meeting with him Bart I was very annoyed and angry wth him and his management. I think Chris has forgotten that without us - the fans - the ones that spend out money on HIM!...

Chris being KNIGHTED

Food for thought.....The whole point of Chris being knighted would be to acknowledge his talent and contribution to the world of quality art as opposed to being knighted based on his popularity rating. THe monarych should respect the idea of quality and not quantity (liek Prince Charles choisng a qu...

Should the Queen knight Chris Rea?

I have been thinking about it and if Elton John can be knighted by the queen as SIR Elton then couldn't she also Knight Chris? I think we need a petition going to get her to do so! Chris has contributed much mroe than Elton since he didn;t sell out as a "POP STAR". What do you think? SIR C...

Hey BART,
I look at the discography site to see what I am missing. I am trying to collect all cds and cd singles. It is a great help to have your discography as a reference! Thanks

Seems Mr Rea recently teamed up with Mike Hardin to win the WADD cup finals in Tenino, Washington USA . Now maybe it is a different Chriis Rea but what are the...

I like all his records since it seems there is something different for each of my moods. i must say I like his new stuff very much though since it seems like it reflects who he really is. I have always listened to his music thinking 'this would sound good slowed down and more bluesy'. Take a song li...
