Chris Rea - Josephine (live 1986)

This performance is taken from a german TV-Show called "Ohne Filter Extra" , Baden Baden (Germany), SWR TV Studio, 1986 Chris once said that all his songs where written as blues songs, because the blues is the music where his heart belongs to. And when you listen to the lyrics and you know the story that Chris wrote that song for his first daughter Josephine (born 1983) when he was on tour, far away from her, than you see clearly that Josephine is pure blues. A great peace of music . . . and timeless.
