(14) Every Heart in the Room

[superval99]

I really believe that the man who played slide on Tracker and the man who played the solo in this beautiful piece of art is not the same

It is a cross between the authenticity of Ry Cooder and the romantic warmness of Chris Rea. Magnificent guitar work for a magnificent song.

He's been practising for three years!        Seriously, I really like this song a lot!   

[Love Expresso]

And how can you not!

Again Kris Drever background vocals on this one. Fits very well, wonderful vocals from both.

[Solid Rock]

A really sweet Shangri-la song

Beautiful   

[Knopflerfan]

Absolutely beautiful, like JF it's either the 64 Strat or the Dan Electro...

[border_reiver]

It's got that glassy tube like sound of lipstick pickups.

But it's more refined than the old gnarly Danelectro.

I'm guessing it is that Strat with Seymour Duncan lipstick pickups he used during the Dylan tour.

My copy of DTRW now signed by Robbie Mcintosh who features on this beautiful song and who I met this evening after a superb gig at our local theatre!!

[Love Expresso]

After Nigel Hitchcock now Robbie being the second guest Musician asking fans about info of the album.
I find it strange that they not even know more about a release they are playing on, not to mention getting a free copy... maybe I am naive in expecting that. But contributing on an artists work of that calibre one might expect some more vibe about it?

Yes, I agree but remember Robbie was asked to play for the 'Loose end's' Radio show which was recorded yesterday but couldn't because of his show so perhaps MK was planning to give him an album or suchlike yesterday.
I'm sure Robbie will be sorted out with a copy or Id like to think so...

[quizzaciously]

I absolutely love this song. Never thought that Mark's take on "How Deep Is Your Love" by Bee Gees can be so good
Besides, no annoying vocals enhancements, just an overdub, no organs, drums, all sounds in place, even the fade out.

[quizzaciously]

Let's count how many songs this song reminds to you. Seems like there's every dong in the word in "Every Heart In The Room".

I'll start with three: How Deep Is Your Love (Bee Gees), The Girl Is Mine (Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney), Tomorrow Never Dies (Swan Lee).

Any toughts about the lyrics? I have the strange feeling that MK composed this song years ago, not recently...

[Love Expresso]

How would you conclude that from the lyrics?

It's not unusual for him to carry around with him them for many years.

This song could have totally been written by Jeff Lynne.  The melody and lyrics especially.  Beautiful.
