Chris Rea and Mark Knopfler were my strongest musical influence. Check my songs for that. Search "Al Varda" on youtube and you'll have a nice alternative ;-)
The slide guitar intro showcases Mr. Rea's dexterity. Around 2:29, we're treated to the beginning of a smoky-voiced love ballad. This is a gifted performer, backed by an equally talented band who have the good sense to play with him and not above him. They compliment one another. The story that is told is one of hope, wrapped up in a sweet pathos. This is truly a one-of-a kind performance which shows us that there are still true musicians left in the world.
Sorry. Don't know what happened to previous message. A heart stopper of emotion. Genuis blue's guitar. Just one of those song's that reach in to your chest & grabs your heart & never lets go. Thanks. Mick
This track and performance is a work of sheer beauty and one of my favourites. Really, really looking forward to seeing the man at Sheffield next Monday night!
just awesome

I love the expressions on his face, it's like he's talking to the guitar, cajoling it into doing what he wants.
Goosebumps every time for me....

Just wish Chris would tour downunder.
We love him here as well.
The older he gets the better he gets.
May he play on forever.
