It might be the same project when he travelled to Cordoba, as in some of that tweets (cant remember from who...) a flamenco guitar player is mentioned. There is a person called Alistair Pritch also twittering about that sessions, and commented thah he met Paul Crockford and Mark Knopfler yesterday...
You might get lucky, now and then

Let's hope. For me, the term "incredible" would only make sense if MK is involved...

Does someone recognize the bass player on John McCuscker's session pics?
Could this be a hint as for what project they are recording?
GF3 and a new John Illsley album are also possible answers.

I agree! However, I seem to recall that I read somewhere that Mark is NOT involved this time, but I can't remember where, so it might just have been a (bad) dream...

Guy told me that in a private mail because of my repetitive questions in his forum regarding the sessions In Cordoba (Spain)

Actually in some of the twits about that recordings from last saturday, someone mentioned that met Mark Knopfler and Paul Crockford during the recordings so, or MK was there just to say Hi, or maybe he did something in the sessions...

I bet that he just said Hi...

Bass player is Ewan Vernal, scottish, living in the Netherlands, for me around the corner

I didn't asked a question about Dire Straits, setlists, the brand of his underpants.. I asked him this: Do you ever feel that your work with Mark overshadows your own musical work Guy? I can imagine that there are a lot of people who always link you to Mark, because you have worked with him since 1983, don't you ever have the feeling that you want to be seen as a musician on your own, rather than that you're always linked to Mark? Please do not take it offensive, and I'll completely understand if you don't want to answer my question. Cheers! Lars

Doesn't seem very rude to me..

I got this answer: Mark who?

Last time I ask Mr.Fletcher a question.. ???
Haha, I'm sorry, but that is the greatest answere ever!! ;) (I guess it means "no".) GF has great sense of humour! I just love his answeres. But if you want him to answere your q's more politely, you should ask him about him and his playing, not about MK. ;)

I just love this from Julio in Spain...

"I know that synths and drums are different things. I also know what is close and what is far, I used to watch Sesame Street... "

Take that, Guy! Ha ha.
Hey, i`ve got a truffle dog - finally a song the ordinary man can relate too!

Hi,

this might not exactly be the right thread, but anyway:

Guy has twittered that some news about the "incredible project" at British Grove will come up soon, and John McCusker too twittered two pics yesterday,
one with Danny, and  one with Guy and some other folk people?? Can we expect some suprise?

LE

Not sure if I missed something or totally forgot it about the Privateering snippet bliss: Do we know already what it is that is so incredible? Wasn't Guy to tell us about it "soon"?

 ???

Has something to do with the spanish thing Guy was talking about. I also know a scottish bass-player, living in the Netherlands, called Ewan Vernal is involved
