This 2 LP set from Warner Bros., pressed on 180 gram by RTI, is an absolute masterpiece.

Of course, I've always been a huge Emmy Lou fan and lately began to play "Brothers In Arms" over and over. On 180 gram vinyl and SACD.

These are love songs. Turns out Knopfler and Harris have had a quiet romance for 10 or 12 years and recorded these songs, whenever they had time, and their paths crossed, over that period. Thus, 'all the roadrunning'; a perfectly charming story.

It's just amazing how Mark Knopfler has written and played all these songs but two with such a Bluegrass/Country sensibility. That's love, folks.
