bleecker street now doing chris rea sticks

[LoveExpresso]

It's a play on words: If you pronounce it fast, "dire rea" means

diarrhea (or diarrhoea as the Brits say) for, well, .. as Mark once had it about the meaning of "Dire Straits": "In the shit"...

french: diarrh

Simply wondering if it is still possible to get a memory stick of the Chris Rea concert please?

Blecker street closed, so I guess no, at least from them. Try sites like Ebay, discogs etc that would sell second one hands.

I'm always surprised by the insane number of MK fans who also like CR. He really doesn't strike me.

Any song suggestion that may change my opinion?

I would recommend the following albums : Road to hell, Dancing with strangers, Shamrock diaries, Auberge,an the last one : road songs for lovers

Funnily, I ordered one Mk guitar stick that came with a Chris Rea concert instead of the mk one...

[Eddie Fox]

Thanks for the songs, guys 

Every time I listen to CR it makes me want to listen to more MK. To me it feels like Chris is kind of a weaker version of Mark.

To me the one album that captures the essence of Mark's sound and still sounds very original is Keith Urban's band's The Ranch. It's a shame that Keith ended up taking the pop-country sound path.

Wired to the moon must be his most underrated album probably. Title track is a must-listen
