Chris Rea Live from 2006 - The Road To Hell And Back "The Farewell Tour".
Easy Rider, from 2002 Album Dancing Down The Stony Road.
The Road To Hell And Back "The Farewell Tour" DVD
Filmed live at the Birmingham - Symphony hall • April 18th, 2006.
Τhe DVD captures a brilliant performance on Chris Rea's farewell tour set. To the the delight of fans present on the night, Rea delivers a balanced set of his greatest hits (Road to Hell parts 1 & 2, Stainsby Girls etc) along with selections from his more recent blues/jazz/roots orientated releases.
The hits work because they are presented in a stripped back, simplified way that represents more closely how they were original conceived and written (as Rea says in the accompanying documentary DVD - all his songs start out as blues songs).
The recent cuts benefit from the live renditions, delivered as they are by a collection of rather excellent musicians who have worked with Rea for quite a long time.

Lyrics:
Well now come on easy rider
Give me something
For my pain
Well now come on easy rider
Though I know you're not to blame
The dogs are out to get me
And pull me down, again
Well now come on easy rider
Turn this screaming fire
Down low
Yeah come on easy rider
Pull this pain
And let it go
This time around
Don't think that I can take it
This twisting pain
I've come to know
Easy rider
Help me
Easy rider.
