Building on last year?s Grammy®-nominated All The Roadrunning collaboration with Emmylou Harris, his highest charting non Dire Straits album to date Top 20 Pop, scanning 400,000 copies in the U.S. acclaimed singer-songwriter guitarist Mark Knopfler unveils his fifth solo album, Kill To Get Crimson. While certain to appeal to his loyal fan base, the album?s artful guitar rock will also entice new fans to Knopfler?s signature sound (he?s #27 on Rolling Stone?s 100 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time), instantly recognizable vocals and smart lyrics. A multiple-Grammy winner who has sold more than 110 million albums worldwide, Knopfler remains one of rock?s most admired artists.

From Amazon.com:
Three decades after Dire Straits broke onto the scene with their remarkable debut, Mark Knopfler remains an iconic figure in popular music, his graceful guitar playing equaled only by his genial baritone and a novelist's ability to create distinct characters and themes in his songs. His fifth solo album since he pulled the plug on the band in 1995, Crimson reflects on a torrent of narratives, from the gracefully aging spouse in the flute-powered ballad "The Scaffolder's Wife" to the valiant down-and-outer in the Scottish folk song "Heart Full of Holes." Employing accordions, fiddles, and horns as majestic accompaniment, Knopfler drifts into the Celtic-tinged melodies of his past, explicitly in the whiskey-soaked singalong "Secondary Waltz," the busker's saga "Madame Geneva's," and "The Fish and the Bird," with its vagabond pensiveness. Clocking in at just under an hour, the album--without any page-turning epic--plays instead like an anthology of written works, every personification crisp in definition, every story exquisitely told. --Scott Holter

Knopfler is one of the best guitarists and songwriters on planet earth. But I expected more.....I wish his old band was still together. |

Awesome! - |
Kill to Get Crimson Review |
|
This is a Awesome CD by a Fantastic Artist! All of Mark Knopflers CD's are very good. But, This one is my personal favorite! I have always liked Artists who do there own thing. And, M.K. is definitely in that group. So, To Hell With The Critics! |

Zzzzzzzzz -  |
Kill to Get Crimson Review |
|
I love Mark Knopfler music...I thought. What I love is his guitar, which apparently has been relegated to 40 seconds of low key filler at the end of each song.
The songs: pleasant to boring. Mark, for the love of Jesus, please find your guitar mojo and bring it back. |

Kill to Get Crimson Review |
|
I just heard the new album by The Dreaming called Etched in Blood and I think that if you like this CD you should for sure check it out. The Dreaming has a unique mix of punk, metal, and darkwave capturing emotional rock. It really is one of my favorite albums of 2008 so far. Check it out. |
