Chris Rea - Skylark Blues
Chris Rea - Skylark Blues CD 3 (The Hofner Bluenotes) from the album "The Return of the Fabulous Hofner Bluenotes".
The Return of the Fabulous Hofner Bluenotes is the twenty-second studio album by British singer-songwriter Chris Rea, released in 2008 by his own record label, Jazzee Blue.
It comprises three CDs and double 10" Vinyl records in an 80-page hardback book.
It is the second album of his project, the Hofner Blue Notes (2003).
The project narrates the history of The Delmonts, an imaginary guitar instrumental band from the late 1950s, who in early 1960s evolved into blues band The Hofner Bluenotes.
It also gives a brief history of the Hofner guitar and its importance in the development of music in Britain.
The book is lavishly illustrated with period photos and mocked up posters and newspaper cuttings about the band, together with some of Rea's paintings, and photos of Hofner guitars.
The music was recorded by Rea (guitars), Colin Hodgkinson (bass) and Martin Ditcham (drums), who feature in the book, together with Niel Drinkwater and Robert Ahwai.
After the album was released, Rea started a European tour, including a show at London's Royal Albert Hall and Newcastle City Hall. He and his band would perform as a quintet The Fabulous Hofner Blue Notes.
The concerts were divided into three sections: in the first, they would play only songs from Delmonts (CD1), then some blues songs from Fabulous Hofner Blue Notes (CD2), and in the third part Rea's greatest hits.

Lyrics:
There was a morning
Clear like a diamond
There was a fresh breeze
In soft April clean
I secretly watched you
High in the bright blue
Singing my young smile
Above the Spring green
New to this huge day
Of promises so many
When happiness and full strength
Blows you away
Falling in laughter
Rising on you smiles
High to your April
Is bursting with me
Skylark, Skylark, looking down at me
Skylark, Skylark, when will I be free?
A lifetime has passed now
Much more than one time
A life without skylarks
Only closing dark doors
In a lifetime of winters
Of crowded damp shadows
Till there's nothing left
Of the child anymore
Skylark, Skylark, looking down at me
Skylark oh skylark, when will I be free?
Skylark, Skylark, looking down at me
Skylark oh skylark, when will I be free?

    Questi giorni quando viene il bel sole... are the correct lyrics. Matt Monroe was a consummate professional, and would probably not have been told, or given the correct pronunciation. Had he been given the information, his rendition would have been flawless. But his voice, whatever the lyrics, is just heavenly to listen to.
