    If I remember correctly, there’s an online diary of the recording process. It may be a different solo album but I think it was Privateering. Guy Fletcher’s diary I think, Google it. Mark uses vintage tube microphones and vintage analog Ampex tape recorders that he had totally rebuilt. There’s a reason his solo albums sound so dang good.

    Besides the musicianship and good tunes, that could be why I have more recordings by him than any other artist.

    @dromunds , thanks for that info on his recording practices, I will investigate! @treitz3 I agree, and have most of his stuff as well. Few musicians can tell a story in song like Knopfler. And he has a knack for employing the perfect guitar tone/effect to reinforce his lyrics. I've read more than once that he would observe some event (someone's behavior) and write a great tune about it (My Bacon Roll, Money for Nothing etc). Genius. I also think Ragpicker's Dream is particularly well recorded. Devil Baby is a masterpiece.

    Can't wait for this to come out in SACD. I have the DVD-A and it is incredible. A slew of Atlantic 75th anniversary titles are coming out on SACD.

    I got this album when it came out, still have it. Played the shite out of it. So, where can we find the list of the SACDs that are coming out?

    Definitely mis-categorized by Apple Music as far as the genre, if not the artist. Jazz all the way, not country. Excellent recording!
