This is my favourite Chris Rea album, so many good tracks it’s hard to pick the best one

Chris has a voice designed for vocals you can understand every word. Chris also plays guitar and keyboard.

Other band members are
Max Middleton (piano)
Martin Ditchman (Drummer percussion)
Robert Ahwai (Guitar)
Eoghan O’Neil (Bass Guitar)
Kevin Leach (Drummer)


The band and Chris make some great tracks together, Fine lead guitar, bass and drums.

Chris is not faint hearted, the last track "Tell me there’s a heaven" is done with a full string orchestra.

Really pushed I would say Texas is my favourite track, or The Road to Hell, or is it?

I could go on and on,

Hope you enjoy it !
