Going Home Local Hero - Mark Knopfler (Barcelona SBD 2019)

[@kenfagel4796]

I grew up on Elvis, Hendrix, Beatles, stones, Doors, Clapton...best of the best. Stevie Ray....a legend. Then there's Mark Knopfler, The best. He has evolved for 50 years and is so stoic. God Bless you Mark.

@@alanjones5786I think we wore out the Local Hero cassette on camping trips to Fraser Island on Australia’s east coast. Late nights, sitting on the beach, miles from civilisation, kidding ourselves we were fishing but really just an excuse to drink a few beers and have Local Hero cranked up and on repeat.

I can imagine, the spirits of Gaudi, Picasso, Miro and Dali bopping their heads in appreciation of another great work of art. No two renditions of Knopfler's solos are exactly alike. Being the artist that he is, he takes little whimsical detours every time he plays.

Agree, DS used to end their shows with this from the early 80s onwards with the road crew taking the microphones down during the song ! MK plays it on a Les Paul now rather than a Strat and I like the way the arrangement has changed to reflect the larger band he plays with nowadays, such as the brass section. But even in DS days he used to evolve songs over the course of a few tours.

On board the movie "Local Hero" was playing, starring Burt Lancaster. Just at the end of the film when our boat will reach the Dutch harbor "Going Home" was hearing. What a perfect timing!
