|  | A wonderful, coherent set by two master musicians. |  |
I beg to differ with Amazon's review of this CD. I thought it was a wonderfully coherent set played and sung by two master musicians accompanied by their more-than-capable side men. What's not to like? The Amazon reviewer didn't find this CD ambitious enough, but I loved that the set was the kind of long, unbroken groove that one rarely finds on CD's these days--a set not of unrelated pieces, but comprising one, beautifully-crafted whole. That's my take. Enjoy!

The CD arrived in excellent condition with nary a defect and with pefect timing! It arrived in plenty of time to gift a dear, 47th birthday celebrating friend who is a fan of both of these exceptional artists.
May 22, 2008I was in a Barnes and Noble one day last year and this CD was playing. I bought the CD and just started listening to it this past month. It is wonderful! I love duets and this CD is great to listen to.
May 17, 2008 |  | Knopfler & Harris Are A Perfect Compliment Together |  |
Unlike the Amazon bonehead reviewer and a VERY few customer reviewers, I found this offering to be extremely well done in every aspect. I own 1000s of CDs including a couple with Emmylou and many with Mark.
I really enjoyed the continuity between the artists, each lending their own sound to enhance the final product. Is there some country? Uh huh. Does it rock? Uh, uh. Am I glad to own it? YOU BET!
May 16, 2008This is a nearly perfect collection of songs. Each cut id elegant and spare, with Harris' and Knopfler's wonderful voices supported by tasteful arrangements. It is a wonderful "driving late at night and thinking" CD. My only criticism: I would have liked a cut or two that pushed the tempo and their voices a bit. The cuts all have a similar sound and feel and tend to blend and (I think) lose some of their power. That being said, it is a lovely piece of work that will have broad, cross-market appeal.
