Maybe some of you are not on Facebook so I post here what I've already posted on Facebook yesterday: A very rare item I bought recently: 12" promo single (France) with "Raincoat & A Rose" on the A-side and "Diamonds" on the flip side. If you look closely you see they pr...

Hi Ann, looks like someone from Chris' management suddenly remembered that there was something like social media :lol: Honestly, I don't attach too much importance to these postings - although I certainly do hope Chris will release a new album in the near future and there's also hope for a tour. Bes...

This one?

Maybe he played 90's Blues at some gig - but I highly doubt he played it as the first song as setlist.fm claims. During this tour he started the concerts with an improvised introduction (it has been recorded live and is available amongst other tracks on the Maxi-CD-Single of "Too Much Pride&quo...

He already said he liked this kind of stuff back in 1998 when "The Blue Café" was released. He was fascinated seeing his daughter creating some drumloops in the kitchen (something like that he said in a few interviews). So there were experiments,too - before RTH2. But as much as I admire h...

Hi all, I'd love to know which ALBUMS by Chris you consider the best / worst.

Thank you, Andrey!

I was very pleased to read the part about the worn brown Strat.
Now we know more about this guitar - at last.

Cheers
Tobi

Thanks!

I bought the rare "Hey You" single for a good price at: http://www.cdandlp.com/de/

"Seabird" seems really hard to get. I will keep my eyes open.

Hi Andrey, here you can see the requested pics: http://www.pichost.de/dwQ http://www.pichost.de/dwU http://www.pichost.de/dwc http://www.pichost.de/dwt It is definitely the slower remix like the video (the worst version in my opinion). I looked at the time and the track stopped at about 3:50. So I'm...

Hi Andrey, as always many thanks for the quick reply and Your remarks! The 7" of "All Summer Long" (1985) I have got was at least printed in Germany - I don't know if it was also released there. I also own a 7" of "Don't Want Your Best Friend" with "Raincoat...&quo...

Hi everyone, which singles do You consider as rare items? I've noticed that some singles for example frequently pop up on ebay but others don't. Some singles seem to be quite rare: - Seabird (1979) - All Summer Long (1985) - Giverny (1986) - Wired To The Moon (1984) - Hey You (1983) - Ace Of Hearts ...

I still cannot find out which version appears on MAGT 280 12’’ single, where time running for Josephine is put 4.15. Please anyone who owns one let me know or better send a photo of the sleeve and the disc! Hi Andrey, are You still looking for the MAGT280 12" single? I have it in my collection...

Hi all, just stumbled upon this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxUrIjfzLdY It is sad that it has become so common to have only a playback performance in a TV show so I don't like these appearances but I had a good laugh when I noticed Martin Ditcham pretended to play keyboards (and his movem...

How about ordering it from the UK? Is that not a possibility? of course, this would be possible. But to be honest I am still not that convinced of this re-issue to spend more money than usual. If it was a lot of new stuff I would seriously consider buying from a UK shop but for just a few songs... ...
