Tell me more, EK. Tell me more.....
Have those prehistoric garbage trucks got the city to themselves? (Heh, heh).
The message of the title track still resonates at the time of September 11, in my opinion.

It's absolutely timeless, isn't it.
As I'm listening to the album, the standouts for me are Brothers In Arms, Ride Across The River, Your Latest Trick and Why Worry.

I could do this all day but Why Worry is one of the most beautiful & uplifting songs ever written. If I'm not feeling so good it always lifts my spirits.
Indeed.
Thanks for the info on the flute in RATR.
Have just bought/downloaded Making Movies. I'll give it a few days though before I post any thoughts

I won't pre-empt you by writing an entire screed about Making Movies then, which is probably one of my top 5 favourite albums.
Haven't had a lot of chance to listen to Making Movies yet, but am liking Expresso Love.
And of course I can't listen to the album without getting all melty at "all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme". Sigh.

Nice to see this, allthough some analysis of the solo work would have been good. I can tell the Guardian that I don't need to 'learn to love Mark Knopfler'. I also don't care if Dire Straits were 'uncool'.

Here is Mark singing Forever Young with Bob:

It's better than I expected & Mark got most of the applause anyway. The man is all class. Now the tour is over he can resume his own career. I love Bob, don't get me wrong, but I thought this tour was wrong.
I didn't want Mark to tour with Bob again. However....

All I can say is that having three new albums from three of my heroes this year has made it all worthwhile. He also got the Ivor Novello Lifetime Achievement award!
The album consists of 20 NEW TRACKS!

I am gobsmacked; I just didn't know. I've been preoccupied elsewhere so I haven't been keeping up with this.
Bear with me because this is the first time I've ever seen what his wife Kitty looks like.
