Chris Rea - Last Drink Blue Guitars - Celtic & Irish Blues (Disc 9) 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 Nine - Celtic & Irish Blues

The Blues went in yet another direction, when it started to mingle with Celtic and Scottish/Irish influences, forming still another hybrid. The general feeling of sadness, loss and blues, which is inherent in the Scottish, Irish and Celtic roots anyway, together with an all new instrumentation could lay the basis for a different kind of approach, giving the Blues the typical Celtic feel.

Wherever I roam

Wherever I go

There'll always be

A smile that I know

At the calling of time

And the last one is here

My lips kiss the glass

And I feel your soul near

Wherever I go

Whatever I do

My last drink is always

Always for you

There'll always be time

Time for "the one"

They'll always be reasons

Before the last one is gone

So my lips the glass

For the good times we knew

And my last drink is always

Always for you

A glass that is full

Is how I see me and you

So I'll smile while drink it

Let tomorrow shine through

My lips kiss the glass

To the good times we knew

And my last drink is always

Always for you...
