Credits : engineer Stewart Eales misspelt as Srewart Eales in booklet."Blue Street (Five Guitars)" is an atmospheric instrumental CD by Chris Rea that puts the electric guitar at the emotional center of the music. Instead of conventional vocal pop or rock songs, this album explores moods, colors and cinematic soundscapes built from layered guitar lines, warm tones and subtle rhythmic accents. The pieces unfold like musical short films: sometimes bluesy and intimate, sometimes nocturnal and urban, sometimes with a touch of jazz or Mediterranean flair. This makes the CD ideal for focused listening as well as for relaxed background ambience that still has depth and character. The title "Five Guitars" hints at the palette Rea uses here: different guitars, sounds and playing techniques that he combines into a coherent narrative. Listeners who appreciate expressive, melody-driven guitar work will find a rich, cohesive journey that shows the instrument in many shades - from soulful and understated to broader, more expansive arrangements.
Chris Rea is a British singer, songwriter and guitarist who became internationally known from the late 1970s onwards. He is especially recognized for his distinctive, husky voice and his tasteful, blues-oriented guitar style. Over the course of his career he has released numerous successful albums and singles and has built up a loyal fan base far beyond the UK. Among his best-known songs are enduring radio staples that have helped cement his reputation as one of the notable European artists blending rock, pop and blues influences. In addition to chart success, Rea is admired for his consistency, craftsmanship and his ability to create albums that feel like complete, atmospheric worlds - a strength that is particularly evident on a conceptually focused instrumental work like "Blue Street (Five Guitars)".
