Ahh,   The duet version - Very nice indeed.  Was that based on the Everlys or MK & Emmylou?

Oops, dmg posted before I'd finished editing !  ;D

Eew, I hated that.  This is much better.

It was based on Knopfler/Harris version indeed, but they based arrangement on the version by Evs. Voicings pretty much identical, but key much higher.

I know mark had the Everlys style in mind when he wrote Why Worry, but yes, I was a bit disappointed when I actually heard their version.
As you say - this is better.

Coincidently, I listened to WW from the Billies only last night (1998 version).  First time in yonks because it's not exactly my favourite Knopfler penned song.

Well what shall I say. Great as usual. She is great too. Phantastic voice I could listen to for hours. Much better than Ruth Moody for example. And lovely looking Lady, too!   :o

I find this version a bit too fast.

But nice voice.

Absolutely right, we rushed it a bit, but it always happens time to time... Thanks!
