Hofner Blue Notes is the nineteenth studio album by British singer-songwriter Chris Rea, released in 2003 by his own record label, Jazzee Blue.[1] The album was part of series of largely instrumental blues and jazz albums released by his label Jazzee Blue and mostly fronted by his band members,[2] of which this album was preceded by Rea's eighteenth studio and instrumental album Blue Street (Five Guitars) in 2003.[3]

The album was part of Hofner Blue Notes, a project about Höfner guitar because Rea's first electric guitar was a 1961 Höfner V3 bought from a second-hand shop while he was working in his father's ice cream factory in early 1970s, and continued with The Return of the Fabulous Hofner Bluenotes in 2008.[4]
