I've just read the answers of the guitars competition.
Guy mentions songs we don't know, probably left from previous albums.
Mark Knopfler Signature Stratocaster: When I'm on my own
Grosh Electrajet: Bonfire Night
Gibson ES330: When It's over
and one we alreday know, 1954 Fender Stratocaster : Two skinny kids
Now that Guy mentioned these songs, may we dare ask him from what recording sessions they are ?
They got a name for people like you, yeh they do
And they got a name for people like me too

According to the competion list Glenn Saggers may have spilled some beans regarding upcoming titles! (Two skinny kids, finally, YAY!)

MK Recording Diary February 2014

COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED

Thanks to all who entered this tricky competition. The winner was Jarle Larsen from Norway who gave the first correct answer. SO many of you were incredibly close which shows you really know your MK guitars. Personally, I thought it would be impossible.



Here is the official list from Glenn Saggers

1964 Fender Stratocaster: Sailing to Philadelphia

1954 Fender Stratocaster:Heart full of holes/Fish and the bird/Punish the monkey/Behind with the rent/Let it all go/We can get wild/Remembrance day/The car was the one/I used to could/A quality shoe/Two skinny kids/Everybody pays/Summer of love/Shangri-la.

Mark Knopfler Signature Stratocaster: When I'm on my own/Redbud tree/Occupation blues.

Pensa MK 'D': Not on anything released, only recorded live on Kingdom of Gold. (I accepted Kingdom of Gold as the correct answer)

Grosh Electrajet: Bonfire Night/Yon two crows/Piper to the end.

Gibson ES330: Madam Geneva's/Behind with the rent/When It's over. (the precise year of this guitar is unknown as it has no serial number)

1959 Gibson ES 335: Baloney again/One more matinee/Wag the Dog.

1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard: The scaffolders wife/Let's see you.

1958 Gibson Les Paul Standard: So far from the Clyde/Before gas and Tv/Cleaning my gun/You can't beat the house/Remembrance day/Dream of the drowned submariner/Yon two crows/Follow the ribbon/Today is OK/Hot or what/Why aye man/You don't know your born/Speedway at Nazareth/5:15am/Back to Tupelo/Whoop de do/The trawlerman's song.

Gretsch 6120: In the sky/Punish the Monkey/The fizzy and the still/Hard shoulder/Yon two crows/Seattle.

I am no gear-head at all so I was not interested that much in Guy's competition. But what I know is that those new song titles have the typical MK flair and that they give me goosebumps alone by reading them...  :D

It's somewhat obvious that 'Two Skinny Kids' may be up for the next solo album or perhaps a Everly brothers tribute since the passing of Phil  :think

Didn't know that one...

Check it out. The old late Telegraph Road-mailing list went crazy when this thing got out.

I still miss the old times at TR  :'(

Someone called Larry Elder saId that he recorded not only the master sessions but also the concert itself where MK played with many country artists, including a duet with John Anderson in "When it comes to you" and "Two skinny kids", but that recording of the concert never saw the light of day  :(
