yeap 00.15 in merry old England ,lets start a feed with favourite tracks goingon all for marks birthday bash on amit lets do it all day ..............
Great idea! I can't pick just one but I'll go find the ones I most treasure (at least at this point in my quest of discovering the brilliance of Mark Knopfler)
I think I'll just imbed the first two and provide the link to the rest
(the princess bride soundtrack is where I first saw his name, and I think what later made me start looking for some of his music)
(my favorite song, and the one that finally started me trying to find and listen everything I could by Mark, which has been wonderful! I think it might have been this version. This is the song that made me
really want to play guitar, which I've not been doing very long now and am terrible at but I am really enjoying
)

{https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJwJ11-pmxg} (I'm pretty sure this is the first music by Mark that I heard after princess bride. I just typed in 'best guitar solos' one day and this came up)
