Requiescat in pace
ARTIST: Mark Knopfler
TITLE: The Ragpicker's Dream
RELEASED: 2002
LABEL: Warner Bros
GENRE: Roots? rock
I find myself dividing music into two categories- what I want to listen to at this time, and what I don't want to hear right now. Genre doesn't matter to me much.
I am actually revisiting this disc. When I first acquired this disc I wasn't overly impressed. Replayed it a couple of days ago, now I'm wondering what the heck I was thinking a couple of years ago?
The playing and voicing of this disc is spot on, a mix of nice 'bluesy' and 'roots' rock that just gets better with more plays (the genre is my own fabrication, I just don't normally try to place music types). There is enough variation to keep you from getting bored halfway through the disc, but enough of a thread to match your current listening mood.
I wish I had this on vinyl, but the CD is well mastered and the sound is first rate. Recommend you acquire or revisit this disc.
