Free Music Review: Wonderfully Relaxing Voice & Sound
Hit: 5 Stars
Let everybody tell you the details of Mark Knopfler's style. I'm new to him, this being only my second CD of his, first being "Get Lucky." That became my bedtime lullabye album and I needed this one to keep from wearing the first out. This is just as good, getting me into that late-night mood.
So, I know many folks look at the intricacies of the perfomance; in this case, I just appreciate the effect it has on me. Isn't this a purpose of music? The guy is just darn pleasant to listen to.
By the way, let me note that I got this from Innuendo at a good price, in top (new) condition and shipping almost as quick as Prime.
Kill to Get Crimson Poster
Building on last year's Grammy?-nominated All The Roadrunning collaboration with Emmylou Harris, his highest charting non Dire Straits album to date Top 20 Pop, scanning 400,000 copies in the U.S. acclaimed singer-songwriter guitarist Mark Knopfler unveils his fifth solo album, Kill To Get Crimson. While certain to appeal to his loyal fan base, the album's artful guitar rock will also entice new fans to Knopfler's signature sound (he's #27 on Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time), instantly recognizable vocals and smart lyrics. A multiple-Grammy winner who has sold more than 110 million albums worldwide, Knopfler remains one of rock's most admired artists.Mark Knopfler Photos

Three decades after Dire Straits broke onto the scene with their remarkable debut, Mark Knopfler remains an iconic figure in popular music, his graceful guitar playing equaled only by his genial baritone and a novelist's ability to create distinct characters and themes in his songs. His fifth solo album since he pulled the plug on the band in 1995, Crimson reflects on a torrent of narratives, from the gracefully aging spouse in the flute-powered ballad "The Scaffolder's Wife" to the valiant down-and-outer in the Scottish folk song "Heart Full of Holes." Employing accordions, fiddles, and horns as majestic accompaniment, Knopfler drifts into the Celtic-tinged melodies of his past, explicitly in the whiskey-soaked singalong "Secondary Waltz," the busker's saga "Madame Geneva's," and "The Fish and the Bird," with its vagabond pensiveness. Clocking in at just under an hour, the album--without any page-turning epic--plays instead like an anthology of written works, every personification crisp in definition, every story exquisitely told. --Scott Holter
