Another blue gone too soon | RIP Barry James

WOW!! That was fantastic! He had such a distinctive and fantastic voice.
I tried to listen in work earlier but shite reception stopped me. Thanks for that Paul. Where was that at ? His voice had a touch of the Tony Christie's about it, who I also think is a great singer.

I'm not sure where it was taken. Barry became lead singer with Sad Cafe in 2018 until his death. He was an incredibly talented guitarist too.

My pleasure.

I feel ashamed for not knowing Sad Cafe. Great ballad

They had a few chart hits. Paul Young was the original singer on them but sadly died. Barry took over. I think they changed lineups a few times.
