For me one of the best works that Knopfler has ever released, certainly the most personal. It begins in London with "Laughs and jokes and drinks and smokes," the time in which Knopfler before the Dire Straits in London music clubs around and pulled occurred among others, the Cafe Racers; a song between folk and blues with "Brubeck drums", no bridges the gap as noble as Knopfler. After a reference to the poet Basil Bunting, whom he met during his work as a copy boy at the Newcastle Chronicle. For me the best number of the album, beautiful chord progression and song, and in between the Gibson with wonderful licks. The hardest rocking pieces Broken Bones, Beryl (Sultans of Swing sends his regards) and Terminal of Tribute to. The latter would also fit well in the last DS plate On Every Street, and by the way, when you listen to text, an appropriate response in the past, living in Tribute Acts. The guitar comes incidentally back more to the fore than in privateering, especially in Beryl and Terminal of Tribute to. To restrain their unique playful quality and the stopper, who were also the main reason to have why Dylan and other large-caliber Knopfler repeatedly invited and continue to invite their albums with or to produce with (kürzlichst Van Morrison), is reflected throughout, though much more subtle but mature, noble, tastier and more resonant than to Dire Straits Times. An absolute must is this album the way (as always with Knopfler) for installation testers!
