Hi John & Marie and welcome !
Unfortunately not much happening on this site right now as things are very quiet on the Chris Rea front.
Some activety coming in 2011 so there will be something new to discuss.
There are lot's of topics in past forums you can catch up on.
THere are a couple of people here from Australia & New Zealand so you're not alone.
I'm in the same position in Canada as you are there as there is no C.R. music played or for sale.
THere are lot's of places to buy CD's but I mainly use Amazon or E-Bay.
Just watch shipping costs and make sure seller has a good rating.
Which CD is it you have ? We all started w/one and you'll discover some GREAT CD's from Chris !
THe best discography I've found is at
