The Borchester Echo | Mark Knopfler documentary BBC4 (35) | RE: Mark Knopfler documentary BBC4 | 31 Jan 11 |
Mark Knopfler is a storyteller, not a performer with bel canto ambitions. He puts over his lyrics in an almost conversational way as a contrast to the glorious melodies pouring from his own finger-style Stratocaster and his band. His words abd meaning are absolutely clear, as opposed to the performer who is too wrapped up in how the vocals sound. I look forward to hearing more of his new direction and musicians. |
