Saw the "All The Road Running" show last night on SoundStage.

Beautiful. Just friggin' Beautiful.

Knopfler is absolutely stellar. His guitar work is so elegant and lyrical. Never over-plays... just stunning.

The Duet of he and Emmy Lou Harris works really well too. Two musicians at the top of their game.

If you get the chance, check it out.... I promise you won' t be disappointed.

I heard them a few months ago on (of all things) the Don Imus show. I went out and bought the album immediately.

Mark Knopfler is indeed a master. I love Emmy Lou Harris. I've never heard her NOT sound fantastic.

I've got the "All The Roadrunning" CD and hope that Mark and Emmylou do another project together at some point in the future.

They're two of my all-time favorites, and this collaboration didn't disappoint me.

Wow, Cliff.
You just erased and wrote-over what were 30 years of musical enjoyment in a single sentence.
