Blue Rock was the third and last album released by The Cross. Just like Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know Blue Rock is a straight rock album. Spike Edney contributed a lot more to the record (he wrote or co-wrote 7 of the 10 tracks of the album).
Sadly, because of the failure of their previous albums, Blue Rock was only released in selected countries.
Blue Rock was only issued in Germany, Japan, Italy (vinly only) and France (cassette only).[1]
Among fans, Blue Rock is considered one of best solo albums by a Queen member, yet this one failed too to sell many copies. This contributed to the disbanding of The Cross two years later.
Just like Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know this album is out of print and it became a hard to find item.
