Chris Rea - Come Change My World Blue Guitars Album 8(Gospel Soul Blues And Motown) 2004.
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.

I walk in your garden
And I feel your soul
This time like no other
I don't fear to go
My eyes are wide open
And I'm ready to be
Whatever you're thinking
I already see
Come change my world
Make it better than it was before
Come change my world
You come banging on my door
Two broken angels
Sharing life's scars
You don't wanna change me
And I love what you are
Come change my world
Cos I walk in your garden
This time I can see
This time forever
It feels so safe to just let it be, let it be
Come change my world
Make it better than it was before
Come change my world
You come banging on my door
Two broken angels
Sharing life's scars
You don't wanna change me
And I love what we are
Come change my world
Oh come change my world ...
