Ah, maybe I misunderstood. He kind of doesn't fit in with the others anyway?

Do we know anything about the songs that have been recorded? Is it new material? Re-recorded old material? Covers?

[Robson]

We do not know. Maybe it will be an album like The Breeze: An Appreciation of JJ Cale.

It's a Buddy Holly tribute isn't it?

I think someone, Sam Fender?, said he recorded a song written by MK... And he was talking about the charity project, if I understood well that interview.

Ok, I don’t remember him saying that.

Sam Fender: " Speaking to Bizarre at The Ivors at London’s Grosvenor House hotel yesterday, the North Shields-born singer explained: “Sting occasionally FaceTimes us, weirdly I always end up being in the bath.

“We were in the studio the other day. I did a charity thing with him and Mark Knopfler.

“I just did some guitar stuff, which was the most f***ing nerve-wracking thing ever, going in to do a guitar take on a Mark Knopfler song, he’s one of the best guitarists ever. "

So, or Sam Fender played guitar for the next MK record, or the charity thing is going to have MK songs on it!

I am wondering if it has lots of covers, plus a song Mark has written as a tribute to Buddy, like he has done in the past about Elvis, The Everly Brothers, Lonnie Donegan etc.

or maybe Sam fender was refering to a Buddy Holly cover sung by MK ? and he called it a "Mark Knopfler song" ?

I think this is most likely but we will see.

Yes, Mark Knopfler song might be just like when you say, say, "Arnold Schwarzenegger movie". Doesn't need to be his movie, the sheer fact that he's in it makes it so.

Given MKs famous anecdote about Telegraph Road and Rave On you would think MK wouldn’t risk putting one of his own compositions among a load of Buddy Holly songs. That would not end well.

A man who makes "old toss", would he be an old tosser?
