Terrific

Review Score: (10/10)
Wow, I'm in love! I've only had one Dire Straits CD up till now but then I heard this solo effort by the great Mark himself while visiting a friend. This is one gal who made a mad dash to buy her own copy of it. "What it is' is the absolute best, rollicking and lyrical. I also love, "Sailing...", "Silvertown Blues" and "Prairie Wedding", a haunting ballad sung in a most genteel manner. Mark has won my heart completely!
