Wow, so much hate thrown at my husband. I hope the rest of the AMT people enjoy the new track, and as another poster pointed out, for a very worthy cause.

So is Birdy1 Mrs Fletcher?

How can anyone be disappointed with this :hmm Mark is our (Local) hero, his name has attracted the most wonderful list of guitar players on the planet, and Sting on bass, and Ringo on drums, fantastic, the only one omission I see is Tommy Emmanuel (and Mike Oldfield for me) but, I am looking forward to hearing what the shredders can do with this classic track, I never, ever thought I would hear Vai, Satriani, Oriani on a Mark Knopfler track.
This must be the year of Mark Knoplfer, what with this, the new solo album, the auction, the TV show, only the knighthood left :clap It just shows the respect he has out there.

As for Guy Fletcher. Good on you son.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

I understand if someone feels disappointed, because we always thought of an album.

But it's WE. Just look this whole project from outside, it's a great milestone in the history of rock guitar, some kind of "We are the world" sung by dozens of six-chords-maestros, nothing that has EVER happened before.

I also add - apart from the noble cause - it is Mark Knopfler personale, and REAL, Hall of Fame prize. Well deserved, MK!!
it's GF's fault. He trolled us all again.

Did Guy ever say anything misleading, or have we all made assumptions?

i bought the bluray AND the LP, as it IS for a worthy coz.
Also, i am dribbling because of the amount of guests on this one, and it was your husband who organised it all, or so it seems, so hats off!
thing is, all of us fans on here were expecting walhalla, as in, an MK record with the likes of Gilmour and/or Clapton playing on it, so the initial reaction from some of us get-a-lifers (as Mark is known to have called us) is dissapointment
But this dissapointment will VERY quickly turn into enthusiasm as soon as the whole thing is out there.
pls do not be discouraged by fan enthusiasm that sometimes tends to go bonkers.
we mean well :-)
well most of us do..

No hate at all, Guy’s a remarkable spot in Mark’s career. I’m very thankful for everything he’s done. That being said, he did lead us onto something else.

We made.assumptions of course, Guy wasn't allowed to say anything so we always guessed things from his few answers.

Totally our (my) fault to do that assumptions.

Honestly, this had so much potential but it's just a huge disappointment.

And who on earth is going to buy a deluxe box of a 9 minute track?
well i did. as it is for a worthy cause...

Can some people just never stop moaning…. It’s an incredibly worthy cause. It’s a great cause, good track, most brilliant musicians on the planet. Well done to anyone involved and most certainly to Guy. Great work, I’ll buy the boxset.

Most certainly, absolutely no hate. He’s done a great job for a great cause. Some people will find anything to moan about. Something like little birds who can’t get enough food to eat.
