Tony Christie ‘Farewell Tour’ Up Close & Unplugged

Tony Christie (AKA Anthony Fitzgerald), a Legend within music as he has had an illustrious career which has spanned over 50 years and is still going strong now.

Born 1943, Yorkshire. He started his musical life at the age of 17 (1960) in a duo called the 'Grant Brothers' and until 1969 he simply fronted bands.

In 1969 he signed up with MCA records and then came his hits such as 'Amarillo' and 'I did what I did for Maria' and so Many more.

The 70's were massive for Tony with him selling over 10 million records. The 80's were a slow down due to the change in musical taste in the nation, however he was awarded the award 'Die Golden Europa' by german radio for superb showmanship. The 90's led to more hits such as the song 'Sweet September' and the song by Jarvis Cocker, 'Walk like a Panther'.

Then came the phone call that brought Tony to be one of the biggest artists still going today. Peter Kay brought Tony to a whole new Generation of youth with the song '(Is this the way to) Amarillo' and 'Avenues and Allyways' off of Phoenix Nights.

Tony is still going strong and he got into the football spirit with '(Is this the way to) The World Cup'.

He is the king of British music and most likely the best solo artists to ever come out of the country. He fits into many categories of Music : Country; Folk; Easy Listening and even some classical (So deep is the Night). But now he fits firmly into pop music as he is now one of, if not the most popular and successful solo artist still going today.
