Chris Rea - Call On Me Blue Guitars Album 8(Gospel Soul Blues And Motown) 2005.
Blue Guitars is a Blues album released by Chris Rea on October 14, 2005 consisting of eleven CDs, one DVD and a full colour book, including paintings by the artist, liner notes and song lyrics. The album is an ambitious project with the 137 songs recorded over the course of 1½ years with a work schedule - according to Chris Rea himself - of twelve hours a day, seven days a week. Initially the project was inspired by Bill Wyman's "Blues Odyssey" and can be called an "odyssey" in its own right, for depicting a journey through the various epochs of Blues Music, starting at its African origins and finishing with modern-time Blues from the 60s and 70s. Subsequently the eleven CDs are titled the following: "Beginnings", "Country Blues", "Louisiana & New Orleans", "Electric Memphis Blues", "Texas Blues", "Chicago Blues", "Blues Ballads", "Gospel Soul Blues & Motown", "Celtic & Irish Blues", "Latin Blues" and "60s & 70s".
The collection is the fifth and last release in a line of Blues recordings Chris Rea has made since recovering from a serious disease at the turn of the millennium and promising himself a return to his Bluesy roots in the event that he survived.
Album Number Eight - Gospel Soul Blues & Motown
While the basic structures and rhythms of the Blues remained true to the original, still a new generation moved the Blues onwards, banjo style played on electric guitar became the electric "sitar", the sound hit the nerve of the Indy/Hippie generation, instantly recognizable: Tamla Motown. Softer and easier accessible than previous hybrids of the Blues, basically every song was a hit.

Oh child
Why did you do yourself so much harm
Don't you know don't you know
There's such a long way to go
If I could turn every scar and pain
Into some kind of help for you
I would give anything and everything
To show the way for you
Call on me
I got some good times waiting
Call on me
I got some good times waiting
I know what you're thinking
I hear what you say
The pain that you're feeling
You say won't go away
But I got the wisdom
Of a thousand broken bones
And I would break every one of them one more time
If that's what it takes to get you home
Call on me
I got some good times waiting
Call on me
I got some good times waiting
Call on me...
