But I agree all these dates (2000, 2001, 2002) are a real mess

this is what I tried to sum up in my first paragraph :)

It's truth :) Because they should print one year on the cover. Year of the album release.

This is a great soundtrack from Mark, I would love to watch Mark play Bass, just to see if he approaches it in the same way he does the guitar. It's interesting you mention the Mike Oldfield style thing with Hard Cases and Four in a Row, I can see what you mean, I have said elsewhere they do share a similar style in various ways, and on Mike's Celtic album Voyager, I can hear Mark's Celtic stylings a lot, in fact it could even be a Knopfler soundtrack album, listen to Celtic Rain for example. Voyager even has Liam O'Flynn and Sean Keane playing on it.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

I agree, this is indeed a lovely soundtrack album from MK....

I always thought the sound quality was poor compared to the rest of MK’s output.
