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.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31889110532193,"sku":"0602527086743","price":7.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_253809_968080.jpg?v=1718038994"},{"product_id":"0731451473227-mark-knopfler-golden-heart","title":"Golden Heart","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31889231970401,"sku":"0731451473227","price":7.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/products\/stand_249988_0.jpg?v=1705458557"},{"product_id":"0602567940449-down-the-road-wherever-ogv","title":"Down the Road Wherever","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31890163040353,"sku":"0602567940449","price":35.53,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_2765991_1083321.jpg?v=1718206303"},{"product_id":"0602498730546-private-investigations-the-best-of-standard-2cd-edition","title":"Private Investigations: The Best of","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31892068630625,"sku":"0602498730546","price":18.43,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_250798_jpg.jpg?v=1741137317"},{"product_id":"0602547169822-tracker","title":"Tracker","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEighth solo album by the British singer\/songwriter.

Knopfler, who has sold a staggering 108 million combined albums with Dire Straits, the Notting Hillbillies and solo, adds The Ragpicker's Dream to his legacy as one of rock's most admired artists. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Even at the peak of Dire Straits' fame, Mark Knopfler's music often seemed informed by a restless worldview as abstruse as his guitar playing was fluid and expressive. This follow-up to his impressive 2000 collection, Sailing to Philadelphia, finds Knopfler chasing a similar musical and lyrical muse, with results that are even more surprising and loose-limbed. \"Why Aye Man,\" the bracing opening chantey that sets much of the album's tone, draws parallels between Geordie pub-speak and Native American chants whilst lamenting economic refugees of Thatcherism forced to ply their blue-collar trades--and keep their Brit pub culture alive--deep in the Fatherland. From there, Knopfler takes us by \"A Place Where We Used to Live\" for a lounge-y, Jobim-inflected reminder that one can never really go home, drops in on \"Quality Shoe\" for a tribute to Roger Miller, and gives us a typically dry, so-deadpan-it's-funny rundown of his Circus Sideshow pals on \"Devil Baby.\" \"Marbletown,\" a graveyard folk-blues, showcases the musician at home on solo acoustic guitar, while the loping, laconic \"Coyote\" draws its good-natured inspiration from a beast named Wile E. But it's the way that Knopfler connects disparate cultures and histories with subliminal, deceptively effortless grace on \"Fare Thee Well Northumberland,\" \"You Don't Know You're Born\" (both of which feature Knopfler's signature languorous, blues-inflected soloing), the folksy \"Hill Farmer's Blues,\" and the country-fried \"Daddy's Gone to Knoxville\" that make the album a triumph of understatement. --Jerry McCulley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40563684835425,"sku":"0093624831822","price":7.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_653404_1452406_jpg.jpg?v=1774533248"},{"product_id":"0602577051401-down-the-road-wherever","title":"Down The Road Wherever","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEDITORIAL REVIEWS \u003cbr\u003e Mark Knopfler’s ninth solo studio album ‘Down The Road Wherever’ features unhurriedly elegant new songs inspired by a wide range of subjects, including his early days in Deptford with Dire Straits, a stray football fan lost in a strange town, and the compulsion of a musician hitching home through the snow.

It's also novelist Julian Barnes's metaphor for middle-class complacency, the refuge the film's Christian Bale somehow finds himself in by the late '70s after a hedonistic '60s Parisian interlude spent rebelling against traditional mores. Those are also the geographic and chronological poles Mark Knopfler's score orbits, from wistful title music that edges perilously close to Kenny G-Land to playfully cheesy, tongue-in-cheek cocktail jazz and riff-rock. Along the way Knopfler also pays homage to gypsy jazz-guitar great Django Reinhardt (who's also gratifyingly represented here by two vintage cuts, \"Blues Clair\" and \"Minor Swing\") as well as serving up the quiet, melodic melancholy familiar to admirers of Local Hero and Cal. The balance of the collection is devoted to a motley collection of period-pop (The Stranglers' droll \"Peaches,\" Hot Chocolate's \"So You Win Again,\" Elvis Costello's breakthrough \"Alison,\" Knopfler's own \"Sultans of Swing,\" and Francoise Hardy's \"Tous les Garcons et les Filles\"). Knopfler's done stronger work (perhaps he's rusty; this is just his second score of the '90s), but the album's shaggy eclecticism has its charms nonetheless. --Jerry McCulley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53578833035638,"sku":"0093624895480","price":13.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_9446025_23545086_20250730072719.jpg?v=1753909264"},{"product_id":"4262428983495-postcards-from-berlin-germany-2006","title":"Postcards from Berlin, Germany 2006","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55745449820534,"sku":"4262428983495","price":18.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_13791458_1211085_20250719015710.jpg?v=1752893930"},{"product_id":"0602478364242-sailing-to-philadelphia","title":"Sailing to Philadelphia (25th Anniversary Edition)","description":"\u003cmeta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e'Sailing To Philadelphia', the second solo studio album by British singer-songwriter and guitarist Mark Knopfler, celebrates its 25th Anniversary with a 2LP clear vinyl.
