Chris Rea - Easy Rider (Birmingham Symphony Hall) video free download

Chris Rea Live from 2006 - The Road To Hell And Back "The Farewell Tour".

Easy Rider, from 2002 Album Dancing Down The Stony Road.

The Road To Hell And Back "The Farewell Tour" DVD

Filmed live at the Birmingham - Symphony hall • April 18th, 2006.

Τhe DVD captures a brilliant performance on Chris Rea's farewell tour set. To the the delight of fans present on the night, Rea delivers a balanced set of his greatest hits (Road to Hell parts 1 & 2, Stainsby Girls etc) along with selections from his more recent blues/jazz/roots orientated releases.

The hits work because they are presented in a stripped back, simplified way that represents more closely how they were original conceived and written (as Rea says in the accompanying documentary DVD - all his songs start out as blues songs).

The recent cuts benefit from the live renditions, delivered as they are by a collection of rather excellent musicians who have worked with Rea for quite a long time.

Lyrics:

Well now come on easy rider

Give me something

For my pain

Well now come on easy rider

Though I know you're not to blame

The dogs are out to get me

And pull me down, again

Well now come on easy rider

Turn this screaming fire

Down low

Yeah come on easy rider

Pull this pain

And let it go

This time around

Don't think that I can take it

This twisting pain

I've come to know

Easy rider

Help me

Easy rider.
