Chris Rea (pronounced /ˈriː.ə/, REE-ə) (born Christopher Anton Rea, 4 March 1951, Middlesbrough] is an English singer-songwriter, recognisable for his distinctive, husky voice and slide guitar playing.The British Hit Singles & Albums stated that Rea was "one of the most popular UK singer-songwriters of the late 1980s. He was already a major European star by the time he finally cracked the UK Top 10 with his 18th chart entry; "The Road to Hell (Part 2)".
Although Rea had limited success in the United States, two of his albums, The Road to Hell and Auberge, topped the UK Albums Chart.[3] The book Guinness Rockopedia described him as a "gravel-voiced guitar stalwart".
This is a great song. Love his music.
