Well, a tricky one :) As far as I remember we discussed that already and got to the conclusion it had no sense at all... :shock:

Hello All,

Chris Rea on pop videos, 1998:

_ "I detest them, they're made for the wrong reasons and they cost a fortune.
My proud moment is the Auberge video. Is the one I wanted, it was cheap,
and the one I made. So there! "

Willy Grimstone is the one cutting Fenders in the video.

Really enjoyed reading that as I like the Auberge video best (and "The Way You Look tonight") so it's great to see this is the only one Chris really wanted. It means our tastes don't differ so much :lol:
Who's Willy Grimstone? Sorry.

Willy Grimston was Chris's main technician (roadie) for many years.

[EDIT: Please don't use this word]! I knew I shouldn't have answered that question.
Anyway here goes......

Name the Scottish band that Chris guested on one track of their debut album in the mid 80's.

Should not prove to be too difficult.

Regards,
Paddy.

I know Chris played guitar on one of Maggie Riely's songs and she is Scottish but I'm not sure if it was in the 80's :?

For those who don't know, Maggie Riely is the voice on Mike Oldfields hit 'Moonlight Shadow'

Here you go, who built sauna to Chris Rea´s house back in a day? :)
Answer came from Chris himself during the TV interview after Blue Cafe album :)
Too many good words to add here.
I better just sit back and drink beer. :)
