He was too busy writing, recording, touring and enjoying it all. So as we approach the end of the first decade of the 21st century, and other multi-million-sellers nudge their careers forward at a snail’s pace, Knopfler prepares to release his fifth studio album of the decade, and it’s another jewel. ‘Get Lucky,’ recorded at his award-winning British Grove Studios in west London and co-produced with long-time cohorts Chuck Ainlay and Guy Fletcher, is a beautifully crafted exploration of a lifetime of musical roots.fluently combining folk and blues with his original song writing, the whole containing personalised British ingredients and vivid observational lyricism.The autobiographical thread running through ‘Get Lucky’ is exemplified by the title track. “The first itinerant person I ever met would sing in soul bands in winter, then work part-time in fairgrounds or ‘go pick fruit down south’ when the weather turned warm,” explains Knopfler. “I was about 15 years old, stuck in school and envious. ‘Get Lucky’ came from him and other travelling characters I went on to meet in places I’d find myself working short-term, like farms, warehouses, building sites, before I got lucky with my songs.” In the end, Mark Knopfler thrives on never taking the audience for granted. “I think there’s still a place for the game that I’m playing,” he muses. “It’s not on the same pitch as a lot of other people are playing, mine’s over here and theirs is over there, but people still want to hear crafted songs.” MKTG/ FORMAT INFO:STANDARD JEWEL CASE CD: (00602527086743)11 TRACK ALBUM LIMITED EDITION CD/DVD DIGIPACK:(00602527086712)11 TRACK ALBUMBONUS DVD OF 1 TRACK PERFORMED LIVE / ACOUSTICVIDEO TOUR OF BRITISH GROVE + INTERVIEW DELUXE EDITION BOX SET:(00602527086750)LIMITED EDITON CD/ DVD DIGIPACK AS ABOVECD OF 3 BONUS TRACKS (Pulling Down The Ride / Home Boy / Good As Gold)DVD OF SHORT 20 MINUTE FILM3 x ENGRAVED POKER CHIPSGUITAR TAB FOR LEAD TRACK “GET LUCKY” HEAVYWEIGHT 180GM VINYL ON 2 PIECES IN ARTWORKED BAGS2 x BRANDED POKER CRAPSwww.markknopfler.comType: AlbumMPN: 2708674Release Year: 2009Tracks: 1: Border Reiver2: Hard Shoulder3: You Can't Beat the House4: Before Gas and TV5: Monteleone6: Cleaning My Gun7: The Car Was the One8: Remembrance Day9: Get Lucky10: So Far from the Clyde11: Piper to the End Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
