Don't think I'll buy it! :lol:

So that really means you will Elangelo !! :)

Hi elangelo,

electric guitar is the sample of " this kind of love ". Never released but you can see it on youtube.

I think warner wants a new chris rea, but not to new , you know.

So he looked what he has done over the last years and put it on to cd.

Maybe chris wanted to put the films out and accepted warners wishes.

Hi all,

"Electric Guitar" actually sounds like a clone of "Joys Of Christmas" - listen to the drums, the keys, the guitar...

I like the live version he played 2010 very much and now I'm a bit disappointed...

Cheers

Tobi

About Sound. Just played on the BBC2 radio. Dancing my Blues Away. Sounds very good and clear to me. Much better than the snippets. If one likes the record is another question. I detect some instruments i did not hear the first time it came out on the BBC or i am wrong.

Just listened to the song via BBC iPlayer and I also think this version differs from the one we heard a few months ago. I'm still not completely satisfied with the drum sound - but I'm looking forward to listening to the whole album in good audio quality. I think it will be Chris' best record since 1993.

By the way: they keep on saying that this album will be the first new material for 10 years :roll: Maybe that's what Warner told them - but it's not quite fair to omit his last records only because Chris then had signed to a different record company :(

One can hear now snippets on Amazon.de. Maybe better quality sound and some different parts of songs. Haven't heard it all yet.

Take care,

Here's the link to the program where the new version of 'Dancing the Blues Away' is played:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0130280#p00js3mc
It starts at 0:54:50
You can really hear some new keyboards, and the sound is maybe a bit better, you can tell us Chris if it is! But we can't get rid of the drums anyway :)

Hello Chris,

Don't wanna sound like someone his parent or mom or dad, but you know some terrible things happened lately by massparty's or gatherings. Also don't want to make some loonie aware about possibilities who are there in everydaylife. But having said that be aware and like you always say...take care.

It's about feeling and never been to such a fest so i have no right probably to make judgements(security?) but its more about the above.(feeling) Have fun and a pleasant stay by our neighbours.

(I also don't go anymore to zoo's because of animals (gorilla's) jumping over the fence.) In other zoo's its known that predators have been getting humans to eat (mobvictims) so they smell fear and humanblood and so on. Yeah i know don't you have something more happy to say haha. Its about risk and your own tolerance.)

I do go to Chris his concert next year, that must be ok LOL!
