Q&A with Chris de Burgh: After 829 days away from the stage, he is back singing his hits and making fans happy
For Canadians of a certain age, a concert with Chris de Burgh is like a reunion with an old friend. The British-Irish troubadour with the sweet, raspy voice has been turning out melodic story-songs since the 1970s, and Canada was one of the first territories to embrace them. Well before Lady in Red made him a household name in the mid-80s, we were obsessed with songs like Spanish Train, Don't Pay the Ferryman and Patricia the Stripper.
