Nice pic, thanks for posting.   My other half was there but didn't get any photos worth showing.   Apparently MK raced his Austin Healey.  Chris Rea was there, Nick Mason won his race.

Mark, Chris and Nick would be a good core for a music band.  8)

It's a question of taste, I just hate cars, and I want to slap Jeremy Clarkson, he gets on my nerves the way not many people do!

Great picture Dusty! I read something about this at Guy's forum. I think there was a message from Mike Child who has been there also! When I am right then Mark C discovered at the end that Mark and Guy have been there at the Revival and that is a pity. I am sure he would have taken some pictures also when he knew!  ;D

I'm not sure, 4 or 5.
2009 - Still So Far To Go - The Best Of Chris Rea
2005 - Heartbeats - Chris Rea's Greatest Hits
2001 - Very Best of Chris Rea
1991 - The Best of Chris Rea
1988 - New Light Through Old Windows -The Best of Chris Rea 

1988 - is not usual compilation - old songs were re-recorded

Haha Slavi, I assume you don't mean those girls but you are jealous because of Mister Stirling Moss?  ???

Well I would be jealous of him! I won't be satisfied standing behind the car as those girls do........Mark even wouldn't notice me stainding behind him!!  ;D I would love to trade places with Mister Moss, then at least I would sit next to Mark in the car and he would talk and look at me!  ;D ;)

Title: Re: MK at Goodwood Revival
Post by: Simon on October 14, 2009, 11:09:35 AM
Apparently there was talk of Chris Rea joining DS in the late 80s - because his gruffy voice he would fit in with some of MKs songs.

However they couldn't decide on a name for the band - the famous one being 'Dire Rea'  ;)

Simon, Agreed.  Mark looked really uncomfortable.  Don't worry, all the nice / fun ladies in this forum will go and rescue him. We'll make sure he's relaxed and have a time of his life! Right ? ladies ?
