John Illsley new album "Long Shadows"

[quizzaciously]

Just listened John's new album, 'Long Shadows'. Man, this is great... makes me think it's Mark who wrote all of the songs and gave it to John.
You can't get more DS-like songs than this, so if you a desperate for a DS reunion, this is a perfect album for you. Anyway, great songs!

Indeed! I do listen Long Shadows instead of Altamira of MK. Most horrible album MK ever made, it looked like he made only film music and didn't add his own style and taste.

Well, if you look carefully you will see that Altamira was made for the movie with the same name :-) I do think he added his own taste and style. Listen to Altamira, or Maria. Totally MK.

I agree, holaknopfler - this is definitely Knopfler's style.   I love all of the Knopfler tracks, but the one that sticks in my mind is Onward, for some reason.  I find myself humming it to myself and then realise it's Onward!    The other MK tracks are typical MK and very beautiful.   I admire Evelyn Glennie's tracks too, but they spoil the flow for me, so I made a separate playlist with just MK tracks, which works very well as a complete MK work.   I can also listen to the original when I feel in that particular mood!

We that preordered his record won't get until May but some of you can buy it at the concerts... 

Thats true, i have it too now. But hey, you saw Altamira, we have to wait for that 

In June the film will be available in DVD and BR, surely before IT was shown in the rest of the world in cinemas.
