Actually saw Mark perform during his first solo venture with 'Golden Heart' before he started doing music for films, and that's getting on for 25 years ago! I personally think he's both one of the most talented musicians and composers this country has ever produced, but not always over popular all the time because he comes over a bit dour. The best and most commercial track on this score is the haunting 'Going Home', covered also by Hank Marvin. The two obviously respect each other as guitarists because Mark guested on Hank's album by performing 'Wonderful Land'. Nuff said!

Wonderful and evocative music from Mark Knopfler who fashioned this soundtrack for this early 80s film. Celtic-influenced for sure and some are short but they all knit together to create a memorable OST.

Music from a favourite film, which would not be as memorable without the powerful music. So good to be able to play the music now, without having to watch the film as well, as I've seen it so many times.

Brand new still in wrapper so in perfect condition. Sound quality excellent and an excellent set from Mark Knopfler. Brings back happy memories of the film and the place it is set in.
