Darling Pretty (1996) – Mark Knopfler
Darling Pretty was the first solo song by Mark Knopfler I was drawn to after the 2nd and final break up of Dire Straits in 1995. It’s a beautifully crafted rock ballad about someone he adores. It was the first…
Postcards From Paraguay (2004) – Mark Knopfler

This is one of my favourite tracks by Mark Knopfler, but it’s purely instrumental made for the above movie Local Hero, which is a really good movie by the way. I must revisit it and review on ‘Friday’s Finest‘. I…
