Gave it one (half) listen. Sounds like Chris Rea trying to sound like Dire Straits. Hurts to see Danny with them.

I like it... Actually the fact that Phil Palmer does the solo makes it better as he doesn´t try to sound like MK, but Caviglia does, with the rythmic guitar... If they were a band playing just his songs, I would like that the band is formed by whoever, including Danny, but, years after that charity concerts of The Straits, and the short tout they did after, continue with this is a little nonsense to me, but as long as I enjoyed it, I recognize that many other people would do if they keep playing... you only have to be aware that you are seeing a "tribute to" band with ex hired members.
LE, funny you mention Chris Rea, I always thought that Chris always try to sound a little bit like DS, but with his own touch, leaving it just a far away influence. I like Chris Rea.
