Our Take

Ah, Mark Knopfler, the man with fingers of gold and a voice as smooth as buttered crumpets. His latest offering, "Local Hero", is a delightful stroll through the idyllic streets of his signature sound.

From the opening track, "The Rocks and the Water", you can almost smell the salty sea breeze and hear the seagulls crying overhead. Knopfler's guitar work is as masterful as ever, weaving intricate melodies that transport you to a quaint seaside village in the heart of Scotland.

Songs like "Wild Theme" and "Going Home: Theme of the Local Hero" evoke images of rolling green hills, sheep grazing in the fields, and locals gathering in the pub for a pint or two. Knopfler's storytelling abilities shine through in every note, painting vivid pictures of a simpler, more peaceful way of life.

But don't be fooled by the laid-back vibe of "Local Hero". Tracks like "Boomtown (Variation Louis' Favourite)" and "The Mist Covered Mountains" add a touch of mystery and intrigue to the album, keeping you on your toes and fully engaged from start to finish.

Overall, "Local Hero" is a charming and captivating listen that will transport you to a world of rustic beauty and timeless melodies. Mark Knopfler may be a local hero in his own right, but with this album, he proves once again that his talent knows no bounds.
