First number 1 for Mark Knopfler

[dmg]

MK is at # 8 on Uk Charts!   Beaten by new entries The Vaccines, 2 Door Cinema Club and Ronan Keating!

Not too shabby considering MK has done zero promotion over here. Not even a song played on radio 2.

Some CDs on Asda and Sainsbury shelves would have made a difference and the odd appearance on Breakfast TV, but not bad all in all! 

The Vaccines were on Soccer AM on Saturday!  Not that I watch that you understand!

In Belgium the album is number 8. Think because Pottel doesn't live there anymore

I'm proud.

Yeahhhhh I am proud also being fan of such a great artist! 

Last week I told at work about the new album and one of my co-workers told "Mark Knopfler, that man of Dire Straits? ...I don't like his music nor his voice!"  .........I asked him if he heard the solo-music of Mark and he said "No, I didn't!"........Then I told he couldn't judge, because the solo music is different and for me much more beautiful then the music of the time of DS!

I'll let him listen to some of the songs and I am sure he will change his mind!
