Chris Rea - Praise The Lord (Blue Guitars, Album 1, Beginnings)

Chris Rea - Praise The Lord, Blue Guitars - Album number One – Beginnings, 2005. Blue Guitars is a Blues album released by Chris Rea on October 14, 2005, consisting of eleven CD's, one DVD and a full-colour book, including paintings by the artist, liner notes, and song lyrics. The album is an ambitious project with the 137 songs recorded over the course of 1½ years with a work schedule - according to Chris Rea himself - of twelve hours a day, seven days a week. Initially, the project was inspired by Bill Wyman's "Blues Odyssey" and can be called an "odyssey" in its own right, for depicting a journey through the various epochs of Blues Music, starting at its African origins and finishing with modern-time Blues from the 60s and 70s. Subsequently the eleven CD's are titled the following: "Beginnings", "Country Blues", "Louisiana & New Orleans", "Electric Memphis Blues", "Texas Blues", "Chicago Blues", "Blues Ballads", "Gospel Soul Blues & Motown", "Celtic & Irish Blues", "Latin Blues" and "60s & 70s". Album number one – Beginnings The first album of this set deals with the very beginnings of the Blues, tracing its ways back to its African roots. Living conditions were hard, many African natives were taken captives and transported across the ocean to be sold as slaves, sometimes even betrayed by their own people, which is vividly depicted in the song "The King Who Sold His Own". All in all it was an environment, where it was only natural for the Blues to develop, and even though the instrumentation and the construction of the songs was still very different from what we now know as Blues, the basics were already there: the sadness, the strain, the burdens, the depression, the feeling of "blue" and – of course – the underlying musical structure. Track list: " West Africa " Cry for Home " The King Who Sold his Own " White Man Coming " Where The Blues Come From " Lord Tell Me It Won't Be Long " Work Gang " Praise The Lord " Sweet Sunday " Sing Out The Devil " Boss Man Cut My Chains Well I’m talking with my brother, I’m talking with my brother I say what’s going on? What a strange kind of music Where’s it coming from? Well, they sing it in the churches They sing that Jesus saves Oh they sing about the Holy Land While they beat up on their slaves Singing praise the Lord Well I got to know this Jesus I got to find out what he do If you keep them in fine house Maybe they’ll sing for me and you Singing praise the Lord Learn the rules of sin Praise the Lord Maybe he’ll let us in Singing praise the chance This could all be true Well there’s nothing to lose For me and you So praise the Lord...
