Rock Legend, Chris Rea (RIP)

One of the greatest rock singer songwriters passed away Dec 22 2025.
He had that similar vibe of Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan and Mark Knopfler all in one.

So sad to read the news that Chris Rea has sadly passed away at the age of 74. Such a great gritty voice, great slide guitarist, lovely songs including my favourite 'Road to Hell'. RIP to a great musician, he will be sadly missed.

Born: March 4, 1951, Middlesbrough, England, United Kingdom
Died: December 22, 2025 (74 years).

A great song, ahead of its time was Road to Hell from 1989 which pretty much encapsulates society as it is now, even more so.
