"More music coming your way"

[Jules]

If I could choose one song from the "unreleased" songs we know about it, it would be Two Skinny Kids.

I remember that Guy said many years ago that "Bonafide" (stp sessions unreleased song) and "Bonfire night" (get lucky sessions unreleased son) were very good.

I think Mark forgot about these titles:(

I think Mark forgot about these titles:(

I dunno, Mark has a history of releasing songs written decades before the release. Songs like Rüdiger, Secondary Waltz, and especially One More Matinee which he wrote, in his own words, in the late 60s. And so, any old song has a really huge chance of appearing on the new record. Mark is a Slow Learner!

[Robson]

It's true. For example Planet Of New Orleans a draft of this recording is from 1979, but Mark rarely looks back.

When I think about the upcoming album a variety of songs he has written over lockdown and ones written years before come to my mind.
Sooner or later we will know.

The only topics he could write about over lockdown are ones of death and misery!  I hope he unearths some gems from his archives.

[Robson]

We don't know what books he read.

Utterly ridiculous.
Books,tv,internet,family and friends could all have easily influenced any new songs he has written.
You should have posted your comment yesterday!

Come on, dmg, not everything is death and misery!    We have Local Hero music to look forward to and I'm sure the new album will be a gem!   I can hardly wait!

Ha, you forgot boredom DIY and unwanted post lockdown pets.

......also there is a new addition to the Knopfler family.   His daughter has a new whippet puppy that MK could write about!

TV is just repeats because so many shows cannot be filmed and news is all about the virus.  Family and friends cannot be visited due to lockdown regulations.  Books is likely to be an inspiration once more, granted.

[Jules]

Books are usually from most of his songs come, so no worries...

Me too, definitely!!

Guy on his forum his album will be out this year. MKs new album will take some more time so that will be 2022.
Also probably a bluesclub ep comming our way.
And we still have the local hero musical cd and i expect also some news about HH documentary any time soon...
