Excellent album from Mark Knopfler. Full of narrative and wonderful storytelling. A CD that's just gets better with each listening. Not a bad song in the bunch. As always superb guitar playing, with other musicians adding sax, flute, and organ. He weaves his magic throughout by fully fleshing out the characters in the songs.
"I wonder if there's no forever
No walking hand in hand
Down a yellow brick road
To never never land
These days I get to where I'm going
Make it there eventually
Follow the trail of breadcrumbs
To where I'm meant to be "
-Mark Knopfler
'True Love Will Never Fade' is a quintessential Mark Knopfler song. It has the wonderful tune and the lyrics that paint a picture. 'Kill To Get Crimson' is a CD that takes a painter's palatte and tries to get that certain color, Crimson.

Very cool post. I love the song and the vocals are great too. Reminds me sort of Roy Orbison with a splash of The Boss. Weird I know..but it does have some of those elements.
