Hi Bart,
Ooops, I really cannot remember where I got the Idea the album was for charity , and not being able to read German ,I have never really looked at the cd box , but you are correct as far as I can see, it does'nt even look like an album that was for charity .
But I am sure I read , somewhere, that the song had some connection with charity, possibly completly wrong of course.
More importantly, thanks for all the work you do , I come on here a couple of times a day , and really enjoy the posts
keep up the good work
Alan

Hi Tina,

I didn't have any Chris Rea singles, just every album, and didn't think of buying any until this week and notably after reading this thread. The singles I brought this week are Julia which has 'I thought I Was Going To Lose You' and 'Jordan 191' as b-sides and 'You Can Go Your Own Way' with 'Ruby Blue' and 'Three Little Green Candles' on it. I have also put bids on a couple more 'Espresso Logic' being one of them! :D

Incidentally 'Only To Fly' is on the 'La Passione' album.

Hello people;

When buying "anything" from Amazon, please use a link from the ONLINE SHOP(make sure "weltochrreath-21" is somewhere in the url-address at all times!) and from that page start searching the Amazon site further. That way this site get's a small revenue for each sale and you help supporting it. It makes no difference for the "end-users" price, so please use this link... Many thanks in advance,
REAgards, Bart (webmaster)

Bart since you are the brains behind this website could I ask you to make a link please the was that you would receive a small fee if it were used for Amazon.I'm not been funny thing is I don't have a clue how to add "weltochrreath-21" to a url.I have limited knowledge on using Computers.Thankyou


Heres happy hunting to anyone who is looking for these B sides.Thankfully I have most of these cause the competition is getting serious.
Tina :) :)

Do you get credit when we actually buy something, or just by clicking and getting to amazon through here?

I see the "weltochrreath-21" when I click on the albums, my shopping cart is kind of full in there now, just waiting for my big fat check.... :D

Hi,

Sorry but none of the songs listed are on B sides.

Peter S...
Between the eyes of love I call your name
Behind the guarded walls I used to go
Upon a summer wind there's a certain melody
Takes me back to the place that I know
Down on the beach

Hi Peter S

If they are not on the "B" side of singles can you tell me where they are located i.e. album name etc. I assumed from the thread that they were "B" sides but if not are they legitimate releases rather than part of bootleg live cds? Any information would be helpful.
Thanks.

Lily ,
This turns up quite often on ebay /amazon etc - but you are gonna need a turntable .
I've had it professionally transfered from the vinyl to cd along with all the other 12" singles and stuff that isn't available on cd ,so keep in touch .
It is still one of his best "dance " mixes , and played loud ,it is stunning .I'm sure you have heard it but for anyone else who doe'snt know it , someone has posted it on youtube
