Whoa!

*spoiler alert*
The cover looks to me like Tracker 2 tho.
-
November 2
-
Release due 2nd November! At least it's early in the month.
Picture like Tracker with font of Privateering!
-
YES! Finally!
Looks amazing!

I get the feeling that Amit will explode tomorrow... ;D

Beautiful cover. My atmosphere. Mark, thank you. Space, blue sky and never-ending road. And the title of the album ...
-
Seems legit! Finally! Brilliant
-
Hope we also get some song info soon :thumbsup
-
Some people think it's a fake, because it's not in the official site. But i bet it's real, because the official site is always late with news ;)

Yes. Hopefully this will get Guy out of his soon-cocoon. 8)

I can't recall the last time the official sources came in first place. If it's fake it's a perfect bootleg cover so nothing goes to waste. ;D

Yeah, that list of similar images tho... I was hoping for something more... Original. But whatever, wherever.

November 2 is Friday. Everything is correct

cd/cd deluxe edition and lp.

Looks like an album that could hold a whole lot of nice slide guitar. ;)

yes, nice picture but doesn't seem very original at all after tracker, would have loved something completely different, but let's hear
the music, that's what matters
-
Unusal for it not to have the track listing. I mean you don't really know what you're buying.
-
I freaking love the title and the art :clap :D

You are buying Mark Knopfler, sir! Whatelse could you possibly ask for? 8)
-
He could easily reuse Camerado. Perfect match!

I guess the official news is Sunday or Monday, 1-2 days

lol yes

The last song on Tracker is "Wherever I go" ...

Interesting to see whether they've skipped making Deluxe boxes or not.
-
I think there will be a expensive box set release as well.
-
Down the road wherever ...
Worst album title so far since 1978. The opposite of original or inspired. Could be Eagles, Springsteen, Lynyrd Skynyrd stuff ... really, Cullercoats would have been so much more "Mark"..
I would bet MK or Kitty took the picture. Maybe there is a nice story to it. I like the fresh colours and the font. Thanks for the find.
I have no idea how you guys are doing it.
LE
-
I really don't. Most uninspired album title ever?
Artwork is very fresh and nice though.
I also like the fact that there will be a deluxe edition.
18,99 € was the same price with Tracker and it had almost 80 minutes of music.

and also, going along with the promise said at the end of the Tracker's CD booklet, "I'll see you down the road"!

Or The Long Highway...:)

I hate it but I have to agree. I know people will throw rotten tomatoes at us, after all so much waiting and stuff. But how generic is all that. The word "generic" is the word that comes to mind after seeng this. As generic as all these obituaries "written by Mark".
But having said that all, Mark seems to design the albums himself nowadays. And being a genius songwriter doesn't mean being a genius designer, so that's fair I guess. Sorry to all the people who can't stand a point of view that's not all praise.

Excuse me for liking it

I can explain my problem with album covers like this. You see, I'm not a songwriter and I can't write a song like Mark.
But I'm not a designer either, but I can take a random picture and slap a title over it in 5 minutes. That's it, cool, huh?
(https://pp.userapi.com/c850128/v850128149/2ea08/m2tjqbRzlCk.jpg)
I know I'm asking for too much, but for an album that again and again will stay in you discography for an eternity...
I would put out something more substantial. And that's all. I'm not a hater, just want some more design effort.
-
I love both the title and the artwork! Can't wait to hear it!
-
I freaking love the title and the art :clap :D
Me too :)
-
Looks like we are up and running! Let the fun, games, opinions, theories, and taradiddle and nimiety of words commence! The Doc can't deny this surely, but equally sure he is not going to say anything about tracks. how composed, meanings, instruments until the record is out in the ether!
-
For me the songs matter; I don‘t care that about the title or the cover... :)
-
3 versions?
-
I don't know what to say... Just wake up early on Sunday (being a parent...) and I'm between incredulity and surprise...
Looking for official confirmation.
In the meantime, I always liked that kind of pictures, in fact I made one in Tenerife like that years ago. It's not very original but is nice and again using a similar font than in Ragpickers and Tracker, that I kind of like.
The title... Wherever I go - Down the road wherever... A connection?
Let's see what comes from official sources.
-
Maybe MK is a Vanishing Point fan??!! Ha-ha!
-
Glad we finally have something!
I do think the art and font is really uninspired.. It almost looks like something that was made via a mobile app. Maybe they will polish it up like they did when Tracker was first announced.
All that aside, it's the music that matters of course, can't wait! Maybe when they will officially announce it, we will get a new single?
-
I like the cover.. but as wespresso says it’s the music that matters :)
I get a little “Ragpickers Dream” feeling by it for some reason.. Don’t know why..
Perhaps we will get a single soon :)
-
Yes, it's music inside what is worth :)
Looking forward to the single and tracklist...
And by the way... From where that landscape would be? US?

It is basically the tracker cover shot with a road in the middle that Mark probably used to disappear ;D ;D ;D

Anyone else did zoom over the picture looking for MK in the far far of the road?
LOL
-
Any connection with "Down The Road Apiece" ?
-

Google Maps is your friend, ins't it ? :P
-
The cover... Could it be a part of the road between his country house in the New Forest and London, and the title being related with the travels from one place to the other and also being in the road wherever when on tour?
I recall MK telling that when on tour by bus with Dylan he wrote some songs, one of them being "silver eagle"...
-
The album cover could indeed be a picture that Mark or Kitty took. Looking at the mountains and sky it looks no polarizing and/or grey filter was used.
The album title feels a bit unnatural to me. English isn't my native language, but 'Down the road to wherever' or 'Down the road wherever ...' makes more sense to me.
-
I understand it like a generic answer, like he's in a conversation:
- I'm going down the road
- where?
- wherever

16 November makes more sense with the two months announcement in advance rule...
Three lps is maybe a special edition in LP as well?
If the special edition has some bonus tracks, maybe the third LP has that bonus tracks too
-

On Vinyl there is less space. So maybe you need 3 LPs for what fits on the 2CDs of the special edition?
-
Look at the price : 50 bucks for the 2 lps, 112 (ouch!) for the 3 lps edition, I guess there are more than only one extra lp to justify that difference.
-
Talking about prices - no sign of a super deluxe box...

There are two LP editions. One with two LP (standard) and other with three, possibly with bonus tracks.

Let's wait for the official announcement... I think Guy and someone else in Facebook or Twitter said something about a box...
-

If I remember correctly, the box sets have previously been available exclusively either from Mark’s website or from the Universal store initially, and then found their way onto the usual retailers such as Amazon later.
Funnily enough, it was on this day in 2014 that Tracker was announced!
-
Someone should write to Guy that Mark should launch his Instagram page, because otherwise we will see all of his vacation photos on his album covers lol.

99.9 percent sure it's from the US.
I'd say it somewhere in Nevada, US. I'm pretty sure his Markness will tell in EPK about this road, a great story like The Crossroads.
-
I read somewhere that someone has used Google IA (whatever it is) with the picture and say it can be various roads of Nevada...
-
Guy pretty much confirming by saying: it looks like Mark’s album.
-
Yep!!! Universal music Portugal confirms that the name of the album is DOWN THE ROAD WHEREVER(DELUXE).(they don´t say anything more yet).cheers!

-
But this page gives a slightly different title ;)
-
I don't think it is such an intelligent act to immediately post any info found concerning a new album or a bootleg on Guy's forum and bombard him with questions.
No wonder they can react so quickly and have everything removed.
Would be interesting to know if any attempt was made on the moderators to remove the info from this site, too, like the titles for the Local Hero Musical.

It will also force them to release the information as long as the information is out even they remove it.
Looks like Bravado is part of the Universal group so the leak comes from the record company itself, LOL

Did someone search in iswc-net for the title of the album? Maybe it gives us a iswc number and the rest of songs are there as well...
-
Indeed ;D ;D
Anyway, the way everything goes with the release of the new album don’t give much hope on how they are going to release the tourdates.
-

Best thing is that with the tour dates, the record company has nothing to do with them.
Worst thing is that with tour dates, multiple promoters are involved.
So yes, tour dates announcement are going to be the usual mess
-
This cover is wonderful. Yes. My imagination working overtime :)
-
It surprises me that so far no other website has picked up the news about the new album :think
-
It must be true. The cover has disappeared from this page.
-
Horrible thought.
The 3 LP is quite expensive. I really hope that isn't the Super Deluxe box.
-

Well because it's "news" for fans only (or like somebody said here, G-A-Ls :lol :lol :lol). General public doesn't care.

US place in the cover = US kind of album ?
whatever that might mean with MK involved

The cover makes my dreams come true. The guitar of MK, alone on the road ...

Well, wouldn't you know it? I just arrived home from a weekend away and I find this great news! Even though the cover isn't very original, I do like it and can't wait for the release. :)
-
The cover... Could it be a part of the road between his country house in the New Forest and London.....
LOLs! Most definitely not! It couldn't be more different to the countryside in the south of England - Take a look at Google Earth. ;)

yes 100 euro might be the usual deluxe box under uncorrect 3LP disguise

Sure, it's a cool song, but his (singing) voice has changed since then, as has the production style. It wouldn't fit. Or did you mean that they would re-record it? Either way seems unlikely given that "they always look forward" (such a cliché).

The image looks like its been taken from Shutterstock and the font is the same of The Ragpicker's Dream... It looks BS except historically MK covers have been kind of dull (tstl) so perhaps it's true!!

I'd say when he used paintings (DS debut, Crimson) it was awesome, let alone a genius photo of Elliott Erwitt on the Ragpicker's. I even like Sailing To Philadelphia, even though I believe it was literally a Shutterstock photo. But at least you had that wordplay with a plane that sails.
You don't have a ship on Sailing To Philadelphia, right? So when I see a plain road under an album title with "road" in it be like — :disbelief :disbelief :disbelief
Might as well name an album... "Long Highway" instead :lol
-
Talking about Camerado, I’ll never understand why that masterpiece was cut out.
-
I find the thought of reusing an old song rather preposterous, however good or timeless the song may be or how well it matches the new cover photo. It's not like the man is not productive enough to come up with new ones, right? Besides, the title of the album has the word "road" in it.
I'm curious though to see whether there's a song on the album with that title, or if it's just a phrase from one of the songs, or whether it's just a description, as was the case with the Tracker album. It will also be interesting to see whether the cover art is an indicator of the music, or if it's purely a general metaphor. Personally, I'd love to hear some twangy Americana rock from the man, preferably with only small doses of Celtic instrumentation this time round.
-

Yes. Then again it's a mystery why so many B-sides are better than many songs that made it to the records.

Only meant it would be great if he does, coz I absolutely love the song, not that I want him to, new songs are priority. Best case, he actually plays it live, along with those other amazing b-sides

Yes, Camerado would be a nice gem to dig up and include in the live set. I also wouldn't mind if he played Prairie Wedding again.

Was the tracker cover also taken by kitty? ???
The cover photo, yes.
Thanks for the information. I didn‘t know that she is also a photographer.

No, she's not.
A photography like the one in "tracker" cover doesn't need a photographer, nor the one for the new record, actually, I've taken similar photographies in Tenerife and I have a friend who is not a photographer that took many pictures like the one in the cover in a travel along the US west coast, some of them even better than the used in the new MK record cover...
Looks like a trendy thing to do the cover pictures from whatever. I still recall this Clapton cover, that is a shelfie made with his Iphone...

As a writer and former actress, she no doubt has an eye for imagery and compostion, and with today's advanced camera technology, all you have to do is to push one button to get a correctly exposed photo. I don't think the Tracker photo is particularly special, though. Looks like a Microsoft Windows background.
And that Eric Clapton cover is just horrid.

I just saved the cover picture and uploaded it to google images...
The truth is that to take a picture like that you only need a good cammera and the idea of composition you want in the picture, and that's all. A friend of mine took lots of similar pictures in his way to Nevada some years ago that are even better than that one.
However, despite not being original, I LIKE IT. It kind of suggest some americana sound... I can't help listening "Sands of nevada" in my head.

yes americana sounds :P
coincidentally, this year is the 50th anniverasry of The Band's 1st album "music from big pink"
The Band is often credited as being the americana style foundator

Do we have a Van Morrison expert here?
Was Mark involved in Van's 2002-released title track "Down The Road"?:
https://pesni.club/text/van-morrison-mark-knopfler-down-the-road-i-go
Ok, found an explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Down_the_Road_(Van_Morrison_album):
The title track was originally entitled "Down the Road I Go" and was first recorded in 1981 with guitarist Mark Knopfler.[3] The song was then re-recorded with Linda Gail Lewis in November 2000 with additional lyrics.
For a few seconds I dreamt MK would duet again with Van on the new album...

Some of them have ISWC number and are titles we already knew and some doesn't have ISWC number so some must be unreleased songs maybe used for this record, and some must be totally new songs...

This is the list we already had. Seems to be the right list then as they shown up at ascap. But there are more songs
-
Nice!
But could some of them be for the musical?

Don't think so, because the other musical songs are not on that list.

And on the Making Movies album, the phrase "making movies" is found in Skateaway, which is kind of funny given that he also penned the song Making Movies.
But I think it's very likely that "Drive down the road wherever" could be from within a song, not a songtitle itself.
Interesting though that a "tracker" is someone who follows a trail of sorts, and supposedly is aiming for something, whereas "driving down the road wherever" suggests roaming and aimlessness.
-
Maybe he again gives one or two songs away to other artists.
I hope not.
-
Maybe some only get registered but not released.
20 would be too good to be true.
-
Just a boy.
Thinking about the co-credits makes the thoughts wander.
TOL 2.0? :D :D :D

With Tracker all 18 registrered songs where released.

yessssss!!! very exciting news

Most of you probably disagree, but I actually like shorter albums, like LP length, around 45 minutes. Longer than that, and I feel the album loses focus. And even with great songwriters like Mark, it's very rare it's possible to have 60-70 minutes of killer tracks.
So I'm hoping for 9-10 great songs!

By the way, does Mark register songs that are outtakes as well?

I don't think it is such an intelligent act to immediately post any info found concerning a new album or a bootleg on Guy's forum and bombard him with questions.
No wonder they can react so quickly and have everything removed.
Same today.
Link to download the new single before it was supposed to be available immediately posted to Guy. :smack :smack :smack
Again management doesn't have to search the leak and can easily and immediately have it removed.
Again brilliant work. :clap :clap :clap

This thing with the cover, title and release date appears in a online shop which is part of universal company, and hours later is gone.
The single appears in an online website and put on sale. Who knows if it's part of universal group but the single must come from somewhere. Now it's gone.
So... Are the people from Universal doing mistakes or it's just a kind of viral promotion we are not getting? Maybe they are doing on purpose, putting the information online and then delete it?
Do you think they can be that good or just people messing with things?

Take a good sit. Next thing would be a site with samples of all tracks that will disappear hours after.
I still have hopes that the record is officially announced before it gets released...

This means the announcement is coming today or tomorrow ;)
Let it finally happen
I believe it when i see it......

But the release date is NOT 2nd november. Maybe 16 november.
-
But how many songs do we have now? 21?
13+8?
21 titles...
Almost the same amount of Privateering which was a double album
Maybe there are 5 bonus songs in the special edition and other 3 in the delux box...
Maybe 8 exclusive tracks for the German market ? Still mad about the Hod Dog thing ;-)
-
I'm also starting to believe that all that is done on purpose..
This thing with the cover, title and release date appears in a online shop which is part of universal company, and hours later is gone.
The single appears in an online website and put on sale. Who knows if it's part of universal group but the single must come from somewhere. Now it's gone.
So... Are the people from Universal doing mistakes or it's just a kind of viral promotion we are not getting? Maybe they are doing on purpose, putting the information online and then delete it?
Do you think they can be that good or just people messing with things?

These things are surely mistakes. If they wanted to create a viral qave with this thinks would have been there longer. Im guessing the the release date og 7 september is casuing confusion. Most likely the release is push back due to promotional reasons (I'm guessing they are working to get all tour dates confirmed with venues - so the tour can be announed at the same time as the record and the single.)

How ironic that MKs facebook just posted an old DS clip instead of posting the actual news we are waiting for

From a FB post. It seems to be another double album?

I dont think thats a real image. Are the songs in the same order as we made up this morning? And why mention 2018 on the back?

Its obviously not the backcover but just a traclisting. Pale Imitation sound like another hit on DSL...

Maybe it's true? The title "When you leave" fits as a finish :think

It's fake.
Only until the 13rd song is right. The rest of songs are unknown if will be bonus or unreleased tracks.
-
In one of the links on internet it was 2 LP or 1 CD. So it's not a double

Seems photoshopped. Not on one disc.
But these seem to be all the tracks. Incl. Bonus songs.
Next weeks will be hard in waiting

From track 13 the rest of tracks are sorted alphabetically, as they are in ASCAP, as I compiled them here, so it's fake 100%

Although MK used a similar imagery to the album cover for his video backdrop, "Playtime Deluxe" seems not to be among the tracks for the upcoming release, which makes MK's gift for Bill Wyman's birthday a one-off and kind of special.
-
Playtime deluxe wasn't recorded at all, according to Guy.

Mixed feelings. It was a good shuffle and should've done well on record. However it had resulted in yet another credit for another band/artist. :)

This is only a tracklist, songs 13 to 21 are bonus tracks.

If Good On You Son is any indication of what the rest of the album will sound like (more electronic in feel), could this be Mark's version of Eric Clapton's Pilgrim? Just a thought.

Sounds experimental and outside the comfort zone, and also makes expectations rise for the tour setlists.

He could easily reuse Camerado. Perfect match!
Or The Long Highway...:)
Or Follow the Ribbon ... all such fantastic songs. It's a shame they never made it onto an album!

I like the cover.. but as wespresso says it’s the music that matters :)
I get a little “Ragpickers Dream” feeling by it for some reason.. Don’t know why..
Perhaps we will get a single soon :)
Exactly! (And a good thing that is.)

Some of us - and you had to be fast and in the right place - have got a single, and have been listening to it for the last 22 hours or so.

Heard this stuff from Guy before... was it Get Lucky he said was similar to Brothers in Arms?!
I expect more of the same and I'm fine with that. We've had these minor diversions with technology before, nothing really new.

Right on! Guy does however qualify his statement by saying 'slight deviation', so we shouldn't expect anything wild, I think. But I'm excited nonetheless.

Hope for the best, plan for the worst. Worst in this case meaning 'more of the same', which of course is not really a bad thing at all.

Still nothing on MK's official website
mk.com said that the release of Mark's as yet untitled new album has been pushed back to June, 2020.
:think or was that about something else?

That was the Local Hero musical, in London. That one they pushed back until June 2020. Luckily not the new album ;D

After Communiqué, Mark learned to always release something different from the previous one.

I don't know if that's really true - KTGC was folky and Privateering had some blues but mostly the solo albums have been an interchangeable hodge podge of rock/blues/country/Americana.
Fine with me but if you played someone Shangr-La and slipped in a track from Tracker I don't believe they would notice.

What I don't like about the cover is that it's too clichéd.
The title itself is still rather okay, I think - the word "wherever" lifts it above the mere "down the road" cliché.
The picture, though beautiful, is a total stock-photo cliché.
But the worst, IMHO, is the font. Not that it's ugly, but it's about as clichéd as it gets (as it was on The Ragpicker's Dream). Why use a fake typewriter font? We know for a fact that Mark is NOT writing his songs on a typewriter, but on a MacBook.
My guess is that they briefed the designer with the idea and asked him to "suggest a couple of pics and fonts."
It's kind of sad that Mark's (and Dire Straits') covers never nearly lived up to the music (especially as there's no lack of fantastic artists around), but I've become used to it over time and didn't expect much else.
Still very exciting to see it, though. Not for what it is, but for what it announces. And I do love the song titles.
-
For me, a new cover is like a dream come true. I dreamed about something similar to Tracker. A lot of space and a blue sky. We drive to where the sky is wide
And the moon is low... The moon is definitely somewhere :)

This is actually the same font as Privateering cover.
Not a bad cover, but everybody, including my 13 old son, can make such a cover in less than one hour.
Just search for "road" in google image and you have hundreds of DTRW-like covers ...
-
Any leaks when the date was announced? Tomorrow?

Sorry to be nitpicking, but no, it isn't the Privateering font. Much closer to The Ragpicker's Dream. It has these little "typewriter" deficiencies – things that would happen if you hit a letter harder or softer on a typewriter - but of course it's not really done with a typewriter, it's a digital fake. IF they were going for a retro feel, they could at least have used a real typewriter. That, however, might not have been a very good idea, either, because the music of the album won't be retro, as far as we can tell by now.
The whole cover is pretty well executed;, but the ideas for the picture and font look like something a non-designer would come up with, someone who's not visually creative. Which probably was the case.
-
Does it really matter about the font or the picture for that matter? The overall impression is what counts and personally I don't have any issue with it. It's not inspiring by any means but none of his covers have been so what's new? I'm sure I speak for all when I say we're more interested in the content. A fantastic cover would be great but it was never going to happen.

Commercial means more delay on the intros of the songs :lol And less folk, I guess.
By the way, Beryl was a tribute (please excuse the term) to Dire Straits days.
My bet is that this song is a tribute to MK's early solo career. It surely is :think
UPD: By this song I mean the new "single" which "came out" lately.

I'm holding out for the official announcement to hear the single, but I must admit I'm a little disappointed with the cover art, Seems very generic and just a bit standard for an MK album, I've always really enjoyed lots of the MK cover art, Still i'm Very excited to hear ithe tunes! Seems like most people are enjoying the single which is great!

We know the cover, the title, the release date (12nd of november in the end), the 13 songs that will be in the standard edition and the new single...
So... what could be new?
- More details about different editions with their contents
- The tour dates...
... but judging how they usually do these things, I expect a "further details will be revealed soon". Like giving us time to find it out by ourselves, like usual ;D

Past experiences taught me not to expect too much than I won't be dissappointed.
Outside of "get-a-life-forums" this will be actual news for people.
And the announcement on mk.com will not be that important. What is really important and what will unfold an effect is that from today the whole commercial carrousel is allowed to finally publish the news that they have for quite some time on all of their marketing channels.
For us the news today would be the tour announcement and further details on a possible super deluxe box.

Mark Knopfler will release his ninth solo studio album on 16 November 2018 on his own British Grove label via Universal/Virgin EMI. Entitled ‘Down The Road Wherever’ it features 14 unhurriedly elegant new Knopfler songs inspired by a wide range of subjects, including his early days in Deptford with Dire Straits, a stray football fan lost in a strange town, the compulsion of a musician hitching home through the snow, and a man out of time in his local greasy spoon. Mark has a poet’s eye for telling details that infuse his songs with his unique psychogeography – ‘where the Delta meets the Tyne’ as he describes it – and his warm Geordie vocal tone and his deft, richly melodic guitar playing are as breathtaking and thrilling as ever.
Knopfler says: “ 'Down The Road Wherever' is a line from 'One Song At A Time.' I remember my pal Chet Atkins once saying that he picked his way out of poverty one song at a time, and it just stuck in my mind. You get to an age where you’ve written quite a few songs. But 'Down The Road Wherever' seems to be appropriate for me just because it's what I've always done. I've always tried to make a record and also to keep my own geography happening in the songs.”
Knopfler has assembled the same group of top flight musicians he has worked with for the last few years (with one or two new faces). As is his way he encourages them to put their own stamp on the material but never interfering in the essence of the song.
“I think the business of making a record, from having written a song and then bringing it to musicians, it can be quite a bendy route. It’s not just motorways all the way….and you can end up in the occasional cul-de-sac, then you have to do a 16 point turn to try to get your truck back out on the main road as unobtrusively as you can. That’s part of the fun of it.”
‘Down The Road Wherever’ has been produced by Knopfler and Guy Fletcher and was recorded at British Grove Studios in London. The band features Mark Knopfler on guitars, Jim Cox and Guy Fletcher on keyboards, Nigel Hitchcock on saxophone and Tom Walsh on trumpet, John McCusker on fiddle, Mike McGoldrick on whistle and flute, Glenn Worf on bass, Ian ‘Ianto’ Thomas on drums and Danny Cummings on percussion. Richard Bennett and Robbie McIntosh also feature on guitar and Trevor Mires on trombone. Imelda May, Kris Drever, Lance Ellington, Beverley Skeete and Katie Kissoon add backing vocals. All songs are written by Mark Knopfler apart from ‘Just A Boy Away From Home’ where he shares the credits with Rodgers and Hammerstein, as the song uses a piece of ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’ to spin its tale of a lone Liverpool fan wandering the empty streets of Newcastle after midnight.
Mark Knopfler has released eight solo albums as well as recording ‘Neck And Neck’ with guitar great Chet Atkins, and collaborated with Emmylou Harris on ‘All The Roadrunning’. He has created soundtracks for ‘Local Hero’ and ‘The Princess Bride’ and ‘Altamira’. In addition to producing his own records Knopfler has also produced albums for Bob Dylan and Randy Newman amongst others. Knopfler was made an OBE in 1999 and was given the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award at the Ivor Novellos in 2012.
‘Down The Road Wherever’ will be available on digital DL, CD, double vinyl (with one bonus track), deluxe CD with two bonus tracks, and a lavish box set that will include the album on both vinyl and deluxe CD and an additional 12”vinyl EP with 4 bonus tracks, a 12” print of the artwork and a 12” guitar tablature of a selected song.

This is cool: "Imelda May, Kris Drever, Lance Ellington, Beverley Skeete and Katie Kissoon add backing vocals."
I always wanted to hear some MK songs with female BGV, but Guy has said they feel MK's music doesn't work well with female voices. I think they are wrong.

lol yes, they didn't put all the 14 songs of the cd on the 2 lps, only 13, so Drovers road is on the extra LP, but not really an extra song
so 14 or 16 or 19 songs, but so 2 songs are missing from the 21 list
maybe 1 extra from mediamkt germany and 1 from mediamkt mozambico

Cool, thank you!!
So, if you buy the Deluxe Box set, you will have all songs, right? In this case, it seems they have learned.
The two missing songs very well could be Retailer's bonus from amazon, saturn, iTunes or whatever. That is something we have to live with.
But in the Deluxe Box Set there are all songs. And that is nice. Isn't it?

True. But it's a statement and gives the box a Message, I like that. I am sure the three vinyl songs will turn up digital. Somehow

Gilmour had deluxe boxes for the last album and tour which are full of extra stuff of all kinds, they are absolutely gorgeous
and are sold for 30-40 euros. In this case you pay 85 euros and don't have songs #17 18 19 on cd, only vinyl + download, and maybe
there will be songs #20 21 sold elsewhere, so not even included, frankly I think diehard fans should be treated in another way

Sorry, you are right. Together with the two bonus tracks it is about 80 minutes of music, on one CD, which is pretty awesome. Same as the Tracker Deluxe Edition.

The briefly available 7digital download had 2 options: 320kb/s MP3 or 44.1khz/16bit (CD-grade).
You know my opinion, I think that anything above CD-grade is perfectly useless... let's not start another war, but it seems to me that lossless CD-grade will be available.

wow the songs are really long! over 1 hour running time even without the "bonus" tracks :thumbsup
where are you find time each song?
@ Apple Music
:thumbsup :thumbsup
-
I'm confused now. :hmm
We listed the standard as 14 songs. According to the official site it has 13 songs. Drovers road isn't on it.
The Deluxe has 16 songs (Drovers Road, Every Heart in the Room, Rear View Mirror are bonus)
When you order the box, you don't get the songs 'Rear view mirror' and 'Every heart in the room' on LP, but they are included in the Deluxe cd.

On iTunes, standard edition has 14 songs including Drover's Road
-
The physical CD is listed as 13 :-\
-
Oh well... the previous sites were probably wrong, it seemed to be pretty strange that the cd had 14 but the 2lps only 13
13 for the standard cd is probably correct as the official site says
-
so it's
13 standard cd or standard 2lp
16 deluxe cd
19 box (13 on the 2lps + 3 extra on the deluxe cd (which has 16 songs) + 3 extra on extra lp or download but no cd... quite a confusionary box)
-
Standard 73min.
Standard 13 songs 66:22
deluxe(plus three tracks) 78:26 :P
box whole 19 songs

Standard 73min.

From the description at MK.com: “The album stays true to the folk and roots-inflected ambience of his solo material, but introduces new elements of jazz, funk and even a hint of the rockier leanings of earlier days.”
Interesting
-
Standard: 13 songs
Deluxe: 16
Box: deluxe = 16 + on LP 4 extra, makes 20 imo
But drover's road is indeed on deluxe CD AND on the bonus LP
So 19 unique songs

That's the stuff I wanted to hear! The first part of this we can discard; it is there so that newer fans joining from the last few years will buy into this one. After the comma is the important bit and it is this that makes me look forward to this album more than any for a long time.

Scratching my head as to why they'd put the bonus tracks on the LP. So nobody will share them?
My old record player bit the dust and is now in the hi-fi corner in the sky so I doubt I will buy the box. I'd need to purchase a new record player for a few songs!

trapper man

nobody’s child

good on you son
my bacon roll

drovers road

heavy up
every heart in the room
rear view mirror
matchstick man

extra LP + also download for those last 3, #17 18 19, so no problem,

Obviously vg to get official news.
Unfortunately there will be delays for people in Europe as they are shipping from Canada and it wouldn't surprise me if some don't get their orders this year.
I say this as my orders from amazon.ca have taken 6-8 weeks to arrive.
They should indicate whether the live show will be flac or mp3.

all MarkKnopfler.com pre-order customers will receive a complimentary future live recording from the forthcoming tour. More information on that and how our customers can take advantage of this very special offer will be provided in the coming weeks.
Can we ask for a 2008 live recording instead? :think

We are waiting for texts. Maybe they will make available earlier. I remember before the premiere of Get Lucky we knew the lyrics before

The way I see it is that there isn't any other downloads other than the standard and deluxe cd. The code might be for the deluxe.
I might be wrong but I wouldn't be surprised if the bonus tracks were vinyl only.

As a fellow baldy I'm amazed MK managed to pretend he had hair for as long as he did. There was precious little left even in 77.
Of course DK has a lovely full head of hair - the real reason MK has disowned him no doubt.

I just received a promo from universal Spain with this piece of lyrics
And I’ll be out of this place
And down the road wherever
There but for the grace, etcetera
I’ll see you later somewhere down the line
I’ll be picking my way out of here
One song at a time
So I risk a prediction that this song, being about Chet Atkins, is the one "about a musician hitchhiking in a snowstorm". Somewhat touching that the title track (if you like to call it so) is about Chet.

He talked about it and about River Towns. I also thought it would be a autobigraphic song. But the story of Chet Atkins makes sense.

When listening to “Good on you son“ you want to stand up, get your backpack, get into your car and just drive. My feeling is that “Down the road wherever” will be a road trip a great journey, can’t wait.
I might preorder it and since I’m in Canada I might get lucky and get it in shorter time, will see.

From markknopfler.com:
Down The Road Wherever, Mark Knopfler's ninth solo studio album, is released on November 16, 2018. The album was created at Knopfler's own West London recording studio, British Grove Studios. The legendary artist has worked with long-time producer collaborator Guy Fletcher on the follow-up to his 2015 album Tracker.
The album stays true to the folk and roots-inflected ambience of his solo material, but introduces new elements of jazz, funk and even a hint of the rockier leanings of earlier days. (Emphasis mine.)
What did Guy Fletcher say? "Slight diversion"? So, we're looking at more of the same with some new elements. I will temper my expectations, then.

I didn't check it paying attention but, it looks like depending on the edition, there are tracks that changes their position in the track list... thats weird...

It's weird that "Drover's road" if it's only in the deluxe cd it goes in the middle of the tracklist and "Matchstick man" remains as the last...

The dutch site bol.com
Any special information about tour dates or just the code?
According to PCM everybody will have pre-sale access. Ingrid and Val mailed them yesterday about this.
-
It's weird that "Drover's road" if it's only in the deluxe cd it goes in the middle of the tracklist and "Matchstick man" remains as the last...
Apparently they paid special attention at the track list and decided it fit better that way :hmm
Yes, and Every Heart In The Room and Rear View Mirror are not on the LP versions.

Also, anybody noticed this in mk.com?:
all MarkKnopfler.com pre-order customers will receive a complimentary future live recording from the forthcoming tour. More information on that and how our customers can take advantage of this very special offer will be provided in the coming weeks.

If that's true, they can announce the COMPLETE tour first, and start with the pre-sale after the album is released. The action is active until 16 november. It makes no sense if the presale starts before 16 nov.

They already announced presales the same morning with some Tracker concerts ...
My guess is that they will announce on friday 16th november the tour dates and start the presale on Tuesday (they usually do it on tuesday I don't know why..) 20th november...

That is the GF meaning of 'soon'. I hope this 'soon' means a tour announcement before october/november

Does it matter for the the in which country you pre-order for the tour location options; so for example: would I be able to book a tour in the Benelux if I'd pre-order from the Official (UK) Store?

I bet anyone would get the MK.com presale as Val and Ingrid said, and all of this are just commercial hooks.

I see. I was asking because the bol.com (dutch webshop) specifically says that if you pre-order, you'll get "access to the the ticket pre-sale of the Mark Knopfler Benelux tour", implying that you might not be able to book a tour outside the Benelux, would you hypothetically want to.

I think a tour announcement will come around the same time the album will be out. With the announcement usualy is the info when ticketsales start. And they will start after 16 nov.

The virgin/emi/universal UK also says that if you pre-order with them you have presale codes for the UK and Ireland tour...
When the venues are seated, sometimes they have seats compromised for different presales in different sites...
Guess they like to create mess... If you don't mind pre-ordering at bol.com, try it, maybe you have extra chances, but it's not sure. It might be just a commercial hook.

Do they charge now for preorder or when it ships?
They charge now. Just preordered the Deluxe Box Set...

Last year Bol.com did the pre-sale also with U2 and they said first that you could only use your presale code only for the Dutch show and in the end you could use it for every European show. So maybe this time it´s the same
-
What I don’t understand is why in the super deluxe box set you get the abum in card board format. :/

Card board would be pretty fragile. I remember getting the card board for the bonus tracks of Tracker, that i can live with. But I want a solid casing for the album CD.

I didn't expect you to do it because of your injuries... Thanks! Hope you are recovery well.

This is so cool! ;D Thank you Quizzi.
Now alone for this 16 sec of yours it will be interesting to listen to the song and how it works.
LE
-
Thanks! No hands required though, just some basic programming ;D
The song seems really groovy, because this riff is a bass riff according to the sheet music.
-
So at least two groovy songs! The title is giving a certain direction anyway. Very interested in this one.
I was thinking about Tracker and if we had been given Hot Dog as first track and maybe after that Oklahoma Ponies... our expectations would have been totally other than what Tracker really was in the end. I guess Down The Road Wherever will be a calm and silent album the same as ususal. Doesn't matter as long as if it's good material and you prevent yourself from falling asleep while listening! ;D
LE
-
I have a strange feeling though. To me it seems like a good idea to put "guitaristic" song as a sheet music in the box, like they did with "Get Lucky". This is the song you can play on your own, just 1 guitar, straightforward and cool, very strong song indeed. But here what we have is a transposed bass riff, some electric guitar lines and straight up rhythm guitar. Seems kind of strange to me. Would have much more sense to put the song like "Get Lucky" in the box, but we will see. Maybe it gets very guitaristic later.

Per Musicvaultz.com , if you order the Delux box set, you’ll get a code to download all the tracks, so the vinyl tracks will be available to download ? Is it the same as a digital card ?

Lance Ellington

and specially:
IMELDA MAY
I'm surprised nobody said anything, Imelda May is a great singer, really great!

Mac and Katie Kissoon used to sing together (brother and sister) and were pretty successful in the 70s. She's also been backing singer for Van Morrison, Roger Waters, Elton John and George Michael etc. Pretty sure she was singing with EC when Mark was touring with him 87-89.
Imelda May performed at the tribute concert for Bill Wyman's 80th birthday.
-
Imelda May is an Irish folk/jazz singer and Kris Drever is from the folk band Lau and also associated with John McCusker, so I think that there will still be a Celtic sound to some of the songs.
-
I imagine the guest singers are just on backing vocals.
-
Imelda May is a big name, so I suppose she won't be just doing backing vocals...

I won't mind the folkies if what they do is play a "Setting me up" version with a mindblowing end of duels between MK on guitar, Richard on lapsteel, John on fiddle, Mike on flute and Nigel on sax.
Far better than Marbletown!

I like the new look of the page, maybe get the background a bit darker, the overall look is a bit pale.

We know something about six songs.
1. “’Down The Road Wherever’ is a line from ‘One Song At A Time,’” says Knopfler, referring to the album title and one of its tracks. “I remember my pal Chet Atkins once saying that he picked his way out of poverty one song at a time, and it just stuck in my mind. You get to an age where you’ve written quite a few songs.
And I’ll be out of this place
And down the road wherever
There but for the grace, etcetera
I’ll see you later somewhere down the line
I’ll be picking my way out of here
One song at a time
2 .His early days in Deptford with Dire Straits
3. A stray football fan lost in a strange town
4. The compulsion of a musician hitching home through the snow
5. A man out of time in his local greasy spoon
6. On ‘Just A Boy Away From Home.’ That’s the only track on which Knopfler is not the sole writer, as it features the melody of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone

Not being too fond of the first single (as it turned out I was not the only one, and Early Bird was mentioned a lot), I started thinking about the time we got Tracker.
In 2015 already many people recognized a lot of familiar stuff in the Tracker songs, some used the word "recylcling" and listed what the found in which song. Now we have an very obvious Early Bird in Good On You Son. I think we should not really raise our expectations too high with the new record and wonder how many other familiar tunes will turn up on Down The Road Whatever.
P.S.: Good On You Son grows on me I happily admit. :wave

I know the guys who manage Mark's social channels and can reach them out for things like that, in fact I already did it a couple of times.

I found the whole picture :)
Love all those jackets and all those crossed legs to hide the belly
The picture with the LP is really unflattering. :o :o

Today I ordered the Deluxe LP Box Set. Terribly expensive! :o 16 november. Why do we have to wait so long ...
-
i ´m wondering when the snippets of the songs are going to be available? :think

And I'm waiting for the lyrics of Down The Road Wherever. Maybe they will make available earlier.

If you ordered it at mk.com the wait could last some months more. Being lucky you will have the box in January 2019.

The Deluxe LP Box Set version will contain the code for all songs? I hope for Don't Suck Me In, Sky And Water and Pale Imitation.

I for shure hope so. Because all the other songs are also on the deluxe cd wich is in the box, so lets hope so! I also order the box-set 8). Long wait...

I don't think they supply the snippets anymore, the album just gets released and that's it.
But of course, usually the whole album gets leaked anyway so official release is like :lol :lol

Amazon Germany offers the Box for 79,99 €. The description is (still) wrong or incomplete. But that's usual the first days/weeks. They started with 103 € last week.
I also asked at Media Markt last week 79 €. No Info yet about a possible exclusive Media Markt track.

Yesterday it was priced 112 euros, I used their link to show them cheaper prices and it looks like they reduced it :)

Does anybody have an idea or any experience where you should order the Deluxe LP Box Set in order to get it the fastest (i.e. ideally on release day)?
-
On amazon.fr, the deluxe box is scheduled for release on the 2nd of november ???

you should buy from amazon so that they pay zero taxes in Luxembourg, all economies get even worse and the richest man in the world get richer
-
Yeah, support your local shop, if it is possible.

Slightly cynical from you as often. Coincidentally I exactly share your opinion, but the question was where to get it the fastest possible way. They are excellent in what they do. And maybe you have to compromise strong opinions when it comes to the new MK album. For me it's easy, it's indeed Media Markt within one kilometer and they have all editions usually on the evening before release day. But if you live somewhere into nowhere, or on an island, it's maybe not that easy and Amazon is the best choice. You cannot be political correct ALL the time, can you?

Unfortunately, this is not a chance to many people, and Amazon is the best choice specially if you have prime account and you can get it in a locker close to where you leave and you can pick it when you come home for work instead of fight with stupid delivery agencies driver that for an unknown reason can't go to your house when you are in your house and their office close before you can arrive there to pick it up

I do understand, of course. That's why I've been saying "if it is possible". Amazon does a superb job when it comes to making things easily available.

The last MK record I bought in a local store was Shangri-la, since then, it was impossible so I had to purchase from big stores or internet, and big stores are one hour and a half far from me so, Amazon is my friend...

Ok, then it is the only viable option. However, the best thing is, we are talking about a new album :wave
-
I'm absolutely certain now. A long time has passed and the album has passed the time test successfully. Knopfler's best album with Sailing to Philadelphia.

It's only a couple of months. A couple of years will give a truer reflection.
I'll give an example of this theory. When the film Pulp Fiction was released I was at high school and everyone, including many critics, thought it was the best film ever released. Really. Looking back to 1993 now it clearly isn't. It's a very good film but there are many, many better films released before and it. There was a real hysteria over the film in some circles at the time.
Same with BIA back in '85. Now looking back I prefer OES, an album I was disappointed with on release. Only years will tell how an album will fare.

I have everything delivered at my office, works out pretty well ;-)
And a pity for me as well that the local shop has closed about 10 years ago. I always bought there, but a lot of people go shop online for less than 1 euro difference and then moan that the shops are closing ::)

Hi amiters,
IMO DTRW is a very Great album, but not MK's Best. It's an album full of great songs like OSATT or TM but when look behind at other albums like TRCKR, STP, GH, GL ...I say that Mark has as solo, ds, collaborations, in 40 years blended of great works and DTRW add other wonderful new tracks an a Musician and Songswriter extraordinary career. :clap :clap
