Shamrock Diaries... isn't it great?

[marcolino]

Yesterday I was listening to that CD, and although I think Chris has written his best music ever in "Blue Guitars", I must say that... WOW! That album is one of his best! (if not the best at all). It's the album that made me "fall in love" with Chris many (oh! so many...) years ago, but still now I recognize its strength. Wonderful music, beautiful texts, perfect sound and arrangements, exceptional and moving guitar solos, and Chris' voice at his best. It brought again tears to my eyes and chills to my spine, and when the CD ended I was stuck on the chair unable to move. I didn't remember how great that album was. I didn't listen to it for years, since the Chris' "blues turn", but there was a time when I was listening to it every time I could. Simply stunning. Does anybody agree with me?

Bye

I like Shamrock Diaries too. Stone, Hired Gun, All Summer Long, etc. Just brilliant songs

Does anybody agree with me?

Somebody agrees with ya

This IS great album. Essential, pure Chris, I like it very much, especially because of All summer long, Stone, Steel river, Josephine of course. This album is really moving...

This was my first Rea album and stays as one of my favourites. That slide guitar solo in Stainsby Girls is sensational. The title track is special too.
