Best Chris Rea music

[r00fie1]

Belter of a song, says a lot of the area.

Even though I`m a Naturalised Refugee Teessider, I cried when I first heard that.

 

[WindyNook]

My mistake he opened for Lindisfarne in the late 70s

Another cracking song from Deltics with Alan Hull and Ray Jackson providing back up vocals

 

[Malaguena]

First saw Chris in the early seventies. He was opening for Lindisfarne at one of there Christmas concerts at the City Hall.

Same here - 77 or 78 at a guess

If I was at that concert I would be saying at the end of every song.
"Ah! Well you can't better that........ Oh!"

I think it was Middlesbrough Town Hall where he introduced Fool If You Think Its Over, saying "Elkie who" ?!!!
Must have been early 80s?

Yep. Benny Santini was the name the record company wanted him to use. He didn't.
