Review From AllCd Covers.

You cannot--it may reasonably be argued--sing and feel the blues if you ain't been bruised. Conclusively, Dancing Down The Stony Road--the word "dancing" is almost used ritually in the Chris Rea lexicon, as if to signify a celebration of a struggle won--is the pure, wounded Delta blues record Rea always wanted to make. Lying in a hospital bed in life-and-death limbo while undergoing treatment for cancer, the former AOR blues-pop maestro vowed that if he ever recovered he'd pick-up the slide guitar, for that was the sound--particularly the Mississippi Delta style of Charley Patton--which inspiredmore… him to follow his muse and throw away his chances with the family ice cream firm all those years ago. Like Bob Dylan's Blood On The Tracks, one suspects this record was a cathartic, linen-airing experience for Rea, who, having grown weary of the rock industry's corporate machinations, is more determined than ever to suit himself. His resilience and resistance to his demons is palpable, with the croaked lines "Come on easy rider, give me something for my pain" alluding to requests he made to his nurse for more morphine, while the hardbitten, two-fingered blues salute of "Qualified" proudly shows the world his well-earned scars. Further down the line, the shadows recoil, the curtains open and--hey--it's a brand new morning, the gospel-tinged "Sun Is Rising" is as jubilant and life-affirming as Bill Withers' "Lovely Day", it being impossible not to picture Chris Rea running outside in the crisp morning air and kissing the milkman. And who can blame him? There's plenty here, too, to quench the thirst of insatiable Van Morrison and Leonard Cohen devotees. And judging by the equine whinnying and snake-like slither of his guitar, Rea is a very fine slide player too.
