Very nice cover Mike! The Strat is real smooth and your vocal is right on. Did you do the lead with your fingers? Nice one!

[Redler]

Excellent version, Mike! Fantastic picking and I like widely panned guitars. You've created very authentic Chris Rea tone on your guitar.

Enjoyable listening! I'm on my second listening...

[Mike_S]

Very nice cover Mike! The Strat is real smooth and your vocal is right on. Did you do the lead with your fingers? Nice one!

Farrell

Thanks guys, yes Farrell finger picked the lead guitar lines

[Johnny Robbo]

Great version... love that strat tone. Your vocals are another thing that makes this a winner for me.

Incidentally, Chris is from my hometown, Middlesbrough. His family used to own a string of ice cream parlours in the area & I went to school with his niece

[Hook]

Again this cover fits you like a glove brother, your voice sounds excellent and the picking is great.
Rock on!

[Hilary]

Wow, most excellent. Everything's spot on to me and your vocals seem effortless.

Sounds like it was written for you.

I tried posting but no go. Excellent all around playing, vocal delivery and production. I really like your style brotha. Very nice Mike.
