Get Lucky
Mark Knopfler
When they agreed the unwritten law that time-honoured artists with brilliant track records get less creative as they go on, Mark Knopfler obviously wasn’t paying attention. He was too busy writing, recording, touring and enjoying it all.
Get Lucky is Knopfler's fifth studio album of the decade and was recorded at his award-winning British Grove Studios in West London and co-produced with long-time cohorts Chuck Ainlay and Guy Fletcher. It is a beautifully crafted exploration of a lifetime of musical roots, fluently combining folk and blues with his original song writing and vivid observational lyricism.

Very great album !
Awesome album indeed, it's in my personal top of mark's solo work
Great album. Really grows on you the more you listen to it!
Best ever!
Fantastic Album!
O que dizer de So Far From the Clyde?... maravilhoso disco. Mark Knopfler é a tradução de bom gosto, requinte, elegância musical.
I like this so much... especially "So far from the clyde". Romantic.
masterpiece indeed - great record
Excellent album. Piper To The End is possibly one of the best closers ever.
The master has done his job!
Mark is God.
magic
Monteleone is incredible
i bought this a couple months back but now i can't find my copy. dammit. anyways, marvelous album!
Definately a grower. I remember first listening to it and going straight back to Golden Heart and Sailing to Philadelphia, but it's grown immeasurably. I think it's a very mature and emotional album, lyrics are fantastic in it. Can't wait to see a few of the tracks played live!
Monteleone. <3 [2]
fantastic album - all respect to Mark Knopfler
meine nachbern hats a gfalln
Another masterpiece...I especially like “Remembrance Day“, “Hard Shoulder“ and “Get Lucky“
Favourite album released in 2009.
It's different than other albums but there is still good old Knopfler behind everything. I really like this :)
Not a Fan
One good song--Hard Shoulder--is really not enough !!!
Bin enttäuscht von dieser LP. Monoton ohne Kreativität! Wo bleiben die Gitarrensoli wie z.B. beim Song "The Long Road" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QZTZ9B7M60). Golden Heart bleibt sein bisher bestes Album Bin gespannt was er auf der Tour 2010 spielt.
as far as i look now, i think border reiver and monteleone are the best songs.
it's great.. it's lovely :) it's quite and keep mi smail :)
terrible album!((
better than his last two or three albums.
Wonderful CD...another one added to the collection.
Monteleone. <3
Not bad at all, and quite better than his last two or three albums.
*sigh* awwww! what a lovely album!
Very good album !
still nice though
for me this is not really a new album..it sounds like the last 3-4 albums of mark knopfler. it seems that every song was written for an older album - but with new lyrics. he is an excellent musician, but the songs are still the same in the last years-but much better than most songs in the top 20 charts....
I'm going to buy it. [2]
Just wonderful album
awesome
