Description
The sly little guitar fill between verses on Two Pairs of Hands tells you Knopfler’s in unhurried form. One Deep River leans into his late-period strengths: storytelling, restraint, and those pinpoint phrases. On Ahead of the Game he deadpans while the band sits in the pocket, and the title track rolls by with steady calm.
This 2LP 45RPM pressing opens space around guitars and voice, and transients snap cleaner. Gently panned acoustics and muted drums feel more alive at this speed without showiness. It’s the side of Knopfler we spin on slow Melbourne evenings.
For a quick comparison, file it near JJ Cale, but the picking here is cleaner and the scenes more cinematic. Arrangements stay hushed, with Mike McGoldrick’s pipes and whistles adding cool air rather than ornament. Prefer to avoid a trip? You can buy Mark Knopfler records online with us.
Longtime fans will recognise the lineage, yet the focus is smaller, warmer, closer to the storyteller at the mic. By the last fade, it feels like the room has exhaled. It rewards quiet speakers or good headphones.
Add it to your collection today, available online or in our Melbourne record store.
