Blue Street
With a Renewed Lease on Life, Chris Rea is Now Recording the Way He Has Always Said He Would. Last Year's Critically Acclaimed "Stony Road" was the First Fruit of this Vigor and "Blue Street" is Really It's Corallary. For this Set, Rea's Voice Sits Out Most of it and Concentrates Completely on his Guitar Playing on this Instrumental Set. The Results Simply Wonderful! all the Energy that is Usually Heard in his Expressive Vocal Tones Come Through Loud and Clear with Every Note Strummed. Only on "Still Going to a Go Go" Do the Chops Spring Into Action for Just a Few Lines. Longtime Fans (And Newcomers Alike) Will Really Marvel at the Musicianship and the Artistry Here. Rea Has Only Gotten Better Each Year Like Fine Wine and Since his Near Brush with the Grim Reaper, his Recordings Are Sharper in Focus and Absolutely Brilliant!
