Chris Rea in Concert 2014

[@sambevgordon5377]

Most beautiful man, beautiful singer, beautiful compassion, beautiful guitarist, beautiful strength. Most appreciated, thank you

[@W87c.b-k]

Прекрасный человек и музыкант. Весь мир его знает. Он по-настоящему знаменит. Не знала, что он кем-то недооценён. Этого не может быть, потомучто его все знают, во всех странах и у него много фанатов. Я одна из них. Очень его люблю, его трудолюбию можно позавидовать.💥💥💥🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@ВалентинаШирокина-х8ц]

И какая прекрасная команда у Криса сохранилась !

[@skumnjepf]

I know, everytime I start listening to Chris it never stops.

[@лидиясоловьёва-н5х]

Давно являюсь его поклонницей!!))

[@wendylecker6937]

there is nothing better than live music, 🎸

[@GraemeTully]

Saw him at Hammersmith a few years back, on his "Farewell" tour. I thought we'd lose him after all his health problems; so, so glad he's still doin' it. Great slide player to boot !!!

[@ericynot]

One of the enduring mysteries of life is why Chris Rea has never been appreciated in the U.S. the way he has been for decades in Europe. He is a genuine musical treasure. And I shall always be grateful that he chose to write a song about my home state (Texas, that is, not Hell :)

[@sherrijohnson6592]

+ericynot I was thinking the same thing. Chris puts most American artists to shame.

[@sherrijohnson6592]

I live in Music City USA ....and I see what we are producing here....and it does not compare. I am just being honest.

[@skumnjepf]

Well....in some ways Americans just sometimes do not worship quality in music😁

[@cesarnarro6013]

I think that most are only exposed to crappy music so they don't know better.

[@annabelleonard-schulz4703]

so underrated as a musician singer & song writer. Wasnt CR like a reluctant superstar. All he wanted to do was play music. i think not being an ego driven money maker with everything being about me me me he just didnt fit the American mould. His voice and guitar playing just transports me to a place of joyful peace.

[@thriftyquilter]

No enthusiasm? Did we watch the same thing? He is totally into the music in every song. Its not likely I'll ever see him play live (opposite side of the world, unfortunately!!) but from every interview I've seen or read and every video watched, it's never been about the show, or the man; just the music. And that still sounds good to me.

[@rjstrotz6144]

MARCH 4, 2023: Happy Birthday, Chris. Wishing you the best in happiness, health and fortune. You have our unwavering loyalty, love, respect and appreciation. Please continue to grace us with your music. God Bless you always!

[@williamspostoronnim9845]

Гении с годами не стареют, а делаются всё более очаровательными! Vivat Kris Rea!!!

[@mattshank22]

Great video of Chris. Man that gruff voice and wicked slide work is so beautifully done. Been listening to him for years and will continue. Also tight other musicians with him. Drummer is solid!

[@gizellearnott9731]

This is amazing one of my favourites love it your guitar gives me the chills would know it anywhere 😊🎼🎤🎸💙💙💙🎸💓⚘love watching you play

[@pocketmnstr11]

Absolutely brilliant for a man with pancreatic cancer (even though he has had his pancreas removed, he still has major problems with the bile duct and his diabetes, which means he has to take 34 pills and 7 injections daily), thus due to all this we NO longer get any ENCORES anymore and only 50 minute sessions as his body is failing him, but his voice is ideal for his type of music and he can still sling a guitar with the best of them all; I am really glad that he didn't do extensive tours of the U.S. of A. as it would have completely drained all the life out of him, they can all buy any one of his albums, compilations or DVD's and there are many of them; I would listen to him all day if I could afford the time.

[@ГульнарДжумадилова-н1б]

Michael E Adlington

[@pocketmnstr11]

A couple of interesting things I have noticed whilst listening to and watching this concert is his voice and how it has "matured" into his songs and style of songs that he writes, it is almost as though he has reached absolute perfection for all he does vocally; secondly is the way he treat his guitars, the "Italia" Maranello Classic looks as good today as when he first got it from the workshop, whereas his beat up ol' Red Fender Stratocaster has more dings and tape on it than the last time I saw it, luckily the Fender can withstand the abuse where as the "Italian Job" is a touch more sensitive and that certainly tells when it's in his hands, the notes he is able to draw for the "Italia" are simply amazing, God (The God of your choice) Bless you Chris Rea, may your life continue to be a joy to you and your family as much as it is to all of your followers of outstanding music.

[@rubboardcindy]

I am from Texas....I discovered this man a few years ago....I know he is very ill.....He is Pure Awesome...I never get tired of his song called "Texas"..That is how I discovered him....Pure Talent...

[@brettallison5753]

Michael Arlington.thanks for that info.heardxabout his illness but didn't know all we are the lucky ones to have been graced with his music

[@RayWilliams-ui7gw]

I used to drive all over Britain for my job and was able to listen to him for hours, how lucky was I, especially at Christmas.😂

[@firdausHITMAN]

To all the people complaining about Chris not saying hello or playing a song they wanted to hear? Piss off wimps. Chris is a true guitar hero and a living legend. I have been lucky enough to see him live numerous times. I attended one of his 2014 tour concerts and he was phenomenal as always. He plays his backside off to the point where in one concert of the 2014 tour he collapsed on stage and was rushed to the hospital. If that does not prove the man gives it his all every time despite his ill health, nothing will. Most musicians would have retired after suffering the health complications Chris is so diligently fighting against. Be thankful Chris is still playing live and making great music you ungrateful sods.There are plenty of true fans who would have loved to take your seats and actually enjoyed the concert. Unfortunately tickets were wasted on the likes of you. Next time do all true fans a favour and bugger off!

[@Rich915]

Well said Stratman...! I knew from the 1st day I heard Chris, he would be on top of my list. I'd love to see him but he never comes to SF. His music is real deep...

[@santamara]

Thank you STRATMAN firdaus !

[@Slickpete83]

I bet we didn't even say hello when he met you hahahaha.....

[@elbbrown8703]

STRATMAN firdaus Very good commentary..Thanks a lot for your information...Greetings from Chile...

[@irena7777777]

Chris Rea is a guitar hero. Hahahahaha!!!!!

[@GeordieGuitarGuy]

As a slide player, I think Chris is so down to earth he doesn't realise how good he actually is. Add in to the mix his health problems that would've stop 99% of people even playing at all, the man is a total Blues legend. The great pity is he's only appreciated as one by too few people. God bless Chris Rea.

[@georgesawtooth]

Thanks to the crappy radio, DJ's with tunnel vision who focus on the same music over and over again, and unwillingness for the general public to branch out in terms of musical taste, this talented and amazing musician has remained in obscurity since the 1970's.

[@coral9597]

@@georgesawtooth Chris Rea will always be recognized by the well-educated, intelligent and independent citizens around all of the world, as one of the best musicians ever!

[@gyorgyneharangvolgyi9888]

Malgré tt cela très bon musicien et qu'elle forme à son âge 😂😂😂👍👍🤗

[@allanmatthewson4328]

You can't compare anyone with Chris, He is a one off unique talent, We have a lot to thank him for. No body gives performances that can in any way be compared to him.

[@mikeparsons9598]

the awesome Chris Rea, unfortunately, highly underrated, his voice is the most original and fantastic , the tone of his voice, is unreal, and obviously he still has it. His compositions are awesome, and he is a very good guitar player. He reminds me of Boz Scaggs, they both have "different " voices & music per mainstream, and they both play guitar. I would love to see them together on stage. Keep doing it Chris.

[@mywaveinwoodswoodperfumes]

yes, great voice and great guitarist

[@JohnCtail]

Yeah man, interesting observations ++

[@mywaveinwoodswoodperfumes]

:p

[@rickdavis3593]

Mike Parsons Not underrated at my home..been listening to Chris for 20+ years.

[@ericynot]

+Mike Parsons Mike, that's a brilliant idea. I've never seen Rea live, but did have the privilege of seeing Scaggs perform in Dallas a very long time ago. Both guys are consummate professionals who bring something unique and inspirational when they play. Pairing them on the same stage would be incredible.

[@ДмитрийПеровский-я7е]

Гитары как у бродяг потертые все сливается с музыкой все выступление как один вдох ,а конец выступления выдох.....очень профессионально и уверенно .....звук супер....БРАВО!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gerardoerak]

Great composer, singer and slide-guitar player. Also, great band...the rhythm session (bass and drums) is excellent

[@arturocervantesyepez8630]

música de este músico deleita a cualquier conocedor simplemente the best

[@stephenchamplin633]

I have the cd of this performance that was a bonus disc that came with Road Songs For Lovers. It is my favorite performance of all that I have seen! Just wish I could have seen Chris live here in the US. Love, Love, Love his music and his band!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@fredgrove4220]

I never get tired of listening to this man, his mastery of that Fender is amazing. Along with Mark Knopfler, Sting, Peter Gabriel and a handful of other artistes, they make this world a better place. The trouble is, when they have gone, they have gone. There is no one out there that can take their places.

[@pocketmnstr11]

Yes he is good on that beaten up old RED Fender and the other Fenders that he has a liking to, but my preference is when he pulls out that Maranello "Italia" Classic guitar and really hits the right chords perfectly; rather talented, what with his song-writing, guitar and banjo playing (amongst a few other instruments he has mastered that weren't used in this concert). Wake up every morning to my "OWN" time with Chris on the stereo with kick-ass 'phones, so as not to wake the family and thus I am in a great mood to start the day, what more could I want.

[@ashburn47]

[@gyorgyneharangvolgyi9888]

Chris Rea zseniális enekes és zenész, nagyon szeretem a dalait hallgatni.

[@MichaelNGreen-mk7vp]

"From where we stand determines what we see" circa 1983. What a powerhouse performance. I cannot understand what people are complaining about. I found absolutely everything about the performance engaging, the music said it all. I don't go to concerts to hear about the type of loo paper the artist uses. I want to hear the music. At the end of the day you have spent one hour in the company of a maestro.

[@martyleclerc2690]

Nothing fancy.... just pure freaking live music.... Rea is a Master... and apparently he can sing and chew gum at the same time.... multitask or what... wow !!!!

[@rickdavis3593]

+Marty Leclerc Guess the gum is to overcome a dry mouth condition. The drugs he's on related to his illnesses have some harsh side effects. My wife is type2 diabetic and on dialysis..the cure is tough.

[@martyleclerc2690]

ahhh...okay..well that makes sense ....hope all turns out okay with your wife Rick ..I hear ya mate... my darling has MS and it can be tough at times... God bless

[@rickdavis3593]

And the same to you.

[@andrewguttmann5924]

Went to see Chris Rea at the Apollo, Manchester on Monday night. Had a brilliant night, musically superb. OK so he doesn't banter with the audience - I don't care. It was an absolute privilege to be there to hear him play. Not many of the 'old school' rockers can still sing and play like Chris.

[@susantarocco9600]

chris rea e fantastico nessuno e meglio di lui e canta e suona con totto il cuore.

[@galinastgeorge6926]

Simply the best. It's easy to forget the time and the world around you when you listen to Chris.

[@rollygibb9737]

Although I knew this fantastic musician by hearing his songs, I didn't now his name and story until now, and I want to buy his records but somehow I can't find them digitally, they seem to be only available in CD's, which is kind of unusual. Any suggestion?
