Being an avid Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits fan, I came rather late to the game though I have collected music since the 1960's when I was a teenager. After buying all of Markl's solo albums and the Dire Straits albums, I have slowly circled back to buy Mark's sound tracks and compilations. Invariably, there is a different version of the song I remember and it has a slightly different sound. This CD is much in that vein: All the songs are familiar, but sung and played a little differently. The title pretty much says it all: One Take. They are sung and played much as he might do in concert. While some people may find the variation on the original of any song annoying, I welcome it, since Mark is a highly skilled and very inventive guitar picker. What prompted me to buy this one was when I created a Mark Knopfler radio station on Pandora and some of these cuts came up periodically.Read full review
it is Mark Knopfler need I say more?
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
just hearing the depth of his singing,much less his understated guitar playing is what I like best,simple yet rich in background of old irish&scottish folk ballards with a rock beat very subtle great to listen too on a long drive
