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!

When someones on the stage as a frontman with a guitar and people in the crowd are seated, you know he has to be something special.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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 :)

It is like listening to a familiar friend. Telling me his stories with his so ever talking guitar.

there is nothing better than live music, 🎸

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.

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

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!!!!!!!!!!!

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

Awesome👍Chris , times go , but I’m still with you👍thanks

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

Chris has not only one answer for the question - what is rock -he has hundreds of it. His play has so many fascets. He is a protagonist of rock - his guitar play is always swinging, sometimes hard, sometimes tender he is a master

What a humble man.. I adore you as a person for your perseverance... What a musician.. !!! Brilliant

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

Ohhhh CHRIS !!!!, You ONE OF A KIND !!!

Can listen to that voice forever.

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.

This man is a treasure to us all .. we should cherish this artist .. he has lived what he sings and plays .. he earned every painful bloody note .. if he does not suit you, then please just quietly leave .. the rest of us are too busy to listen right now ..

No se si viniste a Argentina, genio de la música , si no lo hiciste hacerlo; te llevarás la más potente experiencia de nosotros como público! 🇦🇷

"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.

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.

Гениальный музыкант !!! Прекрасный певец !!! Храни вас Господи !!!❤❤❤❤❤

This is the kind of music I want to hear. Many thanks Chris Rea..... GOD bless you all!!!

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 !!!!

I have always loved this guy... now love him even more...

One of the most under appreciated artists out there - except by us!!

What a show....Chris this is one of my all time greatest. Thankyou for the smile you put on my soul.

never give up never give in.....thanks Chris for your music and carrying on!...

I thank you for posting this. Been a fan of Chris' for a long time but never got to see him perform. If people would just shut up and listen to his work the world would be a bit better for it. I hope I get to see him live before either of us pass from this world.

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

So you think this is what we're gonna see on the tour? FAR OUT!!! Can't wait!! Love you Chris, I'm coming all the way from Houston, Texas to see you in Amsterdam!

A GREAT MUSICIAN - As i lost my favourite guitarist JEFF BECK - i can still see another great one here. Thanks to the uploading people.

He is still working and giving great pleasure to those that love his music. After his illness he is an inspiration indeed.

what i like bout chris is besides the great songs he looks like hes been there and dunnit twice. no pish just great tunes and a soulful voice.

Thank you for sharing this ! I'm eagerly looking forward to the upcoming "The Last Open Road Tour". Till then may God bless them All !

Danke für das Hochladen! Habe ihn in diesem Jahr in Magdeburg gehört und erlebt - fantastisch, aber viel zu kurz. Ich wünsche ihm die Kraft für noch viele schöne Konzerte und das Leben in seiner Musik!

Ты будешь жить во мне до конца моих дней ДОРОГОЙ Крис. Сейчас Я наслаждаюсь 20 минутой этого концерта. Эта 20 минута меня убивает. Какая же эта гитара живая. (Адилет. Кыргызстан. 20.10.2021год.)

What can you say, BRILLIANT. Him & Paul Rodgers 2 of the best around and both Boro lads

Fantastic song writer and musician..would love to see him in concert some time!

Chris Rea! Ты неподражаем! Благодарю тебя за твою небесную музыку, за твой неповторимый голос! Живи 100 лет!

Chris Rea has a fantastic voice

One of the universe's top musicians. He is the best all around" Rocker", and song writer, not to mention his ability to play so many different instruments. My workin' man!

Chris is a great guitarist and a fantastic singer

Wish I get the chance to see Chris live one day. One of the most underrated artists I know.

This is fantastic! I am pressing the like button right now!

EXCELLENT. A bright shinning light. Many thanks Chris.

Chris gives the music all he has to give. He may not be into the art of conversation, but he is a musical genius.

Так мало классиков осталось,Дай БОГ ЗДОРОВЬЯ!

This is an amazing performance of a true artist. Rea is a Master

Genius.. Emotional music at whatever level you want it to be.

I had to Google Chris Rea and it quickly became clear that this is not his first rodeo.:-) He has been in the parade before. Cheers

my late friend James Rokosh introduced me to Chris rea one night I've loved the road to hell ever since thanks James you will never be forgotten

Chris Rea is one of the greatest things to come out of Middlesbrough the steel capital of the UK. Cant believe the Montreax Festival 2014 has only had 180k hits on U tube come on you fans get a load of this its fantstic John in Durham

Гениальный музыкант, прекрасный певец. Браво 👏👏👏 🌹

Best Artist ever. Best Guitarist. Best Slide. Best Voice. Best stage credibility.

Meraviglioso tra i migliori chitaristi

Wonderful set. Must be one of the longest living survivors of pancreatic cancer. Magic that he kept to his promise to go back to his blues roots.

Великое чудо этот человек. Обажаю тебя. Настоящий

He is an amazing artists ! I love everything he has done and continues to do.a beautiful spirit .he shines like the sun .keep uplifting us with your blessed talent.full of heart and soul !thank you chris!!

Increible Chris Rea !! Pasan los años pero tu sigues en el top de los "THE BEST" y nos haces disfrutar de tu musica y la magica vos. Gracias !! Eres el MEJOR !!

Chris is looking great and sounding fantastic as always. Thanks for the upload.

That solo at 20 minutes in , is beautiful, moving , And shows his masterful prowess on slow hand slide guitar . Indeed a hidden treasure !

We all get old too soon. Chris has weathered the storm.

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!

By all means, I've got massive selections of quality music from amazing artists in vinyl LP's, CD's & data...and Chris respectfully is absolutely in my top favourite rated list

Truly amazing musician,lyric artist and singer. He's all I listen to these days. Really enjoyed concert thanks but I'd be standing up clapping not sitting on me backside, dancing away and shouting "WE LOVE YOU CHRIS!"

I only discovered Chris Rea today, this man is a genious.

this guy is a great player ,found his music years ago and still lovin it,keep playing that italia maranello, got one just like it, oh yea i to am a musician and a rocker and a lover of this music

Znam Cię od wielu lat.Lubię Cię od wielu lat.Pozwól mi słuchać Cię cały czas .Byłam na Twoim koncercie ,kocham Twoją muzyki e

Chris Rea is a perfect artist . I love his voice. The magic voice.

I never get tired of his music.

Absolutely outstanding, every song is sung with such soul and emotion which simply compliments his incredible guitar playing. I went to see him at Newcastle several years ago and would love the chance to see him again, a true master of his art.

Ничего себе - в таком возрасте исполнять живой концерт!!! Такая глыба таланта,музыка просто завораживает - улетаешь!!!Вот это образец настоящего мужского обаяния!!!Супер музыкант,певец,мировая легенда,красив даже в таком солидном возрасте. БРАВО!!!

I enjoy this performance, on a regular basis. Thanks :)

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.💥💥💥🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Awesome Thank you so much for sharing. I LOVE CHRIS REA. I just wished he'd come to the state's. :-)

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 !!!

LEGEND SONGS, INCREDIBLE SOLOS AND PERFECT VOICE. REA BEST OF THE BEST

Fantastic musician, writer an singer. Wish he toured here in the USA.

Гений , творец, божий дар ! Спасибо старина Крис , ты лучший 🌈💯💪🤝🤗❤️❤️! Долгих лет и здоровья тебе !

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

música de este músico deleita a cualquier conocedor simplemente the best

Some artists are timeless. Buster Keaton is timeless. Pablo Picasso is timeless. Richard Pryor is timeless. Chris Rea belongs in their company.

Gracias Muzone por compartir este recital de Chris Rea. En Montreux. Es bueno que podamos quienes estamos lejos de estas oportunidades, disfrutar de estos grandes de la musica mundial.

Absolutely love his voice & music.

Excellent performance ! Thanks

VERY NICE STUFF. CHRIS REA IS A GENUINE BAD ASS MASTER ARTIST

Great concert: excellent musicianship from all, perfect sound quality, and amazing atmosphere.

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.

Great set. Sadly ,we in the US have been made ignorant to his great talent (save ONE radio popular song almost 40 years ago). He has always had that wonderful old smoky voice. Smooth as silk and always classy.

Chris Rea is the master of his craft. Thanks for posting. I love this guy.

Absolutely Wonderful ,,Thanks for sharing such talent ,,love it ,,,C

An inspirational legend, professionally and personally.
