It seems that Mark is hosting a weekly show playing his favourite music!
https://blog.siriusxm.com/mark-knopfler-to-host-the-all-new-british-grove-broadcast-on-siriusxm-volume/
-
Anyone know how to get this in the UK?
-
I think you have subscribe to this radio station.
-
Mark is a slow learner indeed. Has a studio for 15 years, decided to do something with it apart from recording music only now :lol
Maybe we'll hear a live album from British Grove Studios in the next 10 years :lol Seriously though, great idea and I'm really looking forward.
-
He's got nothing to do.
I've always wondered what the hell Mark does when he is not on tour or working on new music. When his daughter was younger I guess he could always drive her to school and stuff like that. Now at 70, I reckon he just sits around the house playing with his dog and cooking with Kitty. Not bad! ;D
-
That’s awesome! Unexpected, but awesome! Glad we hear something from him.
-
As he will play stuff from his personal collection there has to be some very good interpretations.
-
The thing is... How to listen to it?
-
Mark the presenter? This just isn't him at all. I know he's a walking encyclopaedia of music but surely they cannot let him be presenter! Should be a laugh a minute. ::)
-
He did a good job with the Mason Dixon documentary
-
I might be wrong but I don’t think Mark will actually play or sing anything, guys. Sounds more like a DJ kind of gig with comments in between tunes.
-
And it's supposed to be a recurring weekly one-hour show? Sounds strange.
Hey, Mark, how about a bi-monthly newsletter / blog post for your fans?
-
Sounds like no Dylan's theme time radio hour, which was bizarrely funny and majorly interesting, amazing music that I got to know from there. Pretty, sure mark was a fan of that too

It sounds interesting. I remember a programme that he did on BBC Radio 2 in the 90s called "Roots" where he played music which had appealed to him through his life. :)
-
Stoked for this! It seems I can’t access the show, is someone planning on listening & recording this?
-
We would have to wait until any of our Americans pals do the favour to us...

I did record the Roots programme at the time and a few years later I transferred it to my computer. It is 24 mb. Any suggestions to how I can put it on the forum? :hmm

Bob Dylan’s Theme Time Radio Hour was also originally broadcast on Sirius and eventually made it to BBC Radio 2 here in the UK. That was a number of years ago now, but hopefully something similar will happen for Mark’s new show. Either that or it could be made available as a podcast. In any case, I hope we do get to hear it over here because it sounds quite interesting, albeit a rather unusual and unexpected thing for Mark to do!

It's the best thing ever, because you just can't keep an ear on everything good music related, and here you will have suggestions from the man with the perfect taste. Again, I wish this idea would be presented earlier, but I'm happy something like that is in the works. Here in Russia we have a great great jazz musician (who even looks like Mark lol) and he had a radio hour for the past 20-30 years or something. The thing is I discovered A LOT of great jazz records with his program, especially since he's focused on obscure, underrated and live tracks rather than on hits and I smell similar thing with Mark. Can't wait.

A broadcast by a British musician from the British Grove Studios located in London, England, to be available only in the US, sounds good to me :lol

Yeah, seems logical coming from a British artist whose official website is running from Canada.

The Bob Dylan radio show had a very cool name, the MK one is not that cool but I guess it's promotion for his recording studio calling this radio show like his studio...
The promotional text says it's a weekly show, but it doesn't says how many weeks it will last...
-
I guess it's possible to access it by using a VPN?

Pretty sure his studio is more then well known, seeing as the stones, the who, Gilmour,Robbie Williams and many others already recorded there. I genuinely believe that is not the reason

The British Grove broadcast is quite an awful name for a radio programme... there must be a reason!

The studio is named after the street on which it's located, makes sense. The programme is named after the studio. I guess Mark is not a fan of creative names, after Dire Straits and Notting Hillbillies did he name at least something in the "creative" way? Personally I love more straightforward names, and the studio's name is perfect.

amazing music being played, Bob D. being hilarious.

From what I know about Sirius XM whne it was launched is that it is a US only (...well plus Canada) subscription radio
For more info see the Wikipedia entry : Sirius_XM (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirius_XM)
So no surprise for me that it is currently unavailable elsewhere.
-
My little theory is that because Mark's dear mother has died not so long ago, he was probably struck with the nostalgia lightning so hard he decided to revisit his roots once again, but this time properly with a weekly show instead of occasional and now almost forgotten mid-90s programme. Sort of a tribute to the "Listen with Mother".
Another little and crazy idea is that Mark decided to do a weekly show so he can book extra hours in the studio to work on songs and have another additional reason to do so. As was mentioned before, family life takes a lot of your free time (kids or no kids), so it's great to have this sort of an office to do stuff. For the man who writes more on the road than at home it seems a legit theory.
-
I have a more simple theory : this is business for British Grove and Mark liked the concept.

Yeah, more money for nothing while he's doing whatever he's doing right now, if he's doing anything at all...
-
It's predictably annoying this will be on a subscription service.
Iggy Pop has a regular show on BBC6 music. Much more accessible , not that I listen to it, but serves as a comparison
-
There’s a little snippet on Mark’s Instagram account and already I can tell this is a killer show.

What a blooming joke that this is not available worldwide.
-
ah, nice! Sounds very promising!
-
What a blooming joke that this is not available worldwide.
The worst thing about it is that there was seemingly no attempt of getting it worldwide at all, like "here's a show for you, listen to it somehow".
When things like that happen, my only hope is for this thing to be released "the bad way" as quickly as it can.
Following that logic I was the one who uploaded "Mark Knopfler on Guitars" documentary straight on YouTube, because it was available in US only. And so what? It made 10 millions of views and a lot of money for the original rights holder. What are they thinking...

It was a funky mix of music, to be sure, aside from his outtake with Dylan. But I genuinely wrote down two musicians I never heard of before ... So an hour well spent with the very gravelly voiced Granddad Knopfler. :clap

I think he did well, but not exactly lively. Perfect for a late-evening show. I also think the narration was cut and edited in places. The music overall is very laid back. Sunday afternoon music, to be honest. Not that that's a bad thing. It probably is an indicator of where Mark is at musically these days.

Absolutely. Hopefully he'll do it fairly regularly to build momentum and not lose it. At any rate, it's very interesting to get a peak into what kind of music he likes.

Yeah, that's something I was missing, more talk about the songs, why he liked them, if or how they inspired him. It was a bit too "this is artist A, whom I like, playing song B, which I also like". Fingers crossed.

Thanks for this, Dan - it's much appreciated! :thumbsup
Just finished listening and I enjoyed it very much. It's always interesting to hear MK's personal musical favourites. I hope he does some more. :)

Thanks very much for the effort. Thought he would play a bit but this would have to do ;)

I'm still wondering why he does it. And why Canada, which has a population of only 38 million? If it's just for the love of it, a not-for-profit thing, why not make podcasts and launch them on the streaming platforms?
Edit: I was under the impression that it was ONLY Canada, but it's also the US. Sorry.

If you think about it, I think most people will agree that Mark's complete absence from the world between albums and tours is quite a shame and he might just realised that. I think it's his way of dealing with the modern world, and I think it's the best way to do it! Rather than be a blogger or have an Instagram, having an old-school radio show is an amazing thing to do. And I bet royalties for this kind of work are so negligible he do it just for the sake of it. And the availability... It's just because Mark's marketing works that way :lol

I think the format is ideal for Mark, and he certainly doesn't need to do it for money. Plus I think it's fun that he just does something different. So, if just for his personal pleasure, that's fine. There are however several young-ish and not well known artists that he presents, so if he'd like to give them some exposure, then that's great. Surely choosing Canada isn't an accident, but I think he'd get a lot more listeners in the EU, or Australia for that matter. If exposure is the goal, I mean.
Edit: I just realized someone mentioned this earlier in the thread. Sorry for making a fuss about the only Canada thing, which was incorrect.

Just started listening the show and I freaking LOVE IT! What an amazing show! I have a friend who recommends me a lot of cool new music and I don't know where he finds it, but having Mark Knopfler recommend you music is just another level. Definitely my life will be better because of this show, and that's not a bad thing at all :lol

The announcement of the radio show said it would be weekly, but it doesn't says during how much weeks...
After watching the Brian Johnson program, when Brian and MK were talking about songs from their youth and both singing them, I thought that something like this radio show could be interesting...
I would listen to it on Monday while driving to work, I can't before, I'm very much looking forward to it!

I liked everything he played, the first album by Fruit Bats is insanely good. I love contemporary music, a lot of really good albums out there, I’m more interested in that rather than in the old stuff.

I agree, very interesting to hear how in touch he is with current music, new records & artists. We all know the classics by now ;-)
Hope this show continues for quite a while, otherwise he could start making Spotify-recommendations-playlists!

Totally agree. Finally heard Knopfler talk about another favorite Mr. Springsteen. :) :thumbsup and the Fruit Bats song really, really good. I put it op on speakers as I have a few Knopfler fans among my collegues.
Thanks again.

Somebody mentioned that Mark has a perfect voice for radio and it's true. I love listening to his interviews because of his astonishingly good calming voice, very relaxing experience. Also, I love the jokes, little touches like this washboard thing and "last shot got him" was brilliant. The man seemingly was born for the radio :lol
-
For late-night radio, yes.
-
Just listening to almost half of the show and I have to say that it explains very very well, regarding the nowadays music he played, the music he's doing.
The radio show itself it's good, I hope that the next episodes are better, probably he started feeling a little shy doing it .

I'm curious how Mark listens to music. On the go? In the studio? With his money, he could have an insane high-end home system. It's obvious he listens a lot.
By the way, did he say a bit more this time about the songs? I haven't listened yet.
-
Many thanks, Binone, for the download and also Quizzaciously for the list of songs. Much appreciated. :)
I enjoyed listening to this week's broadcast very much, especially A Case of You - Joni Mitchell, Foreign Lander - Tatiana Hargreaves/Bruce Molsky, Dance All Night - Chance McCoy, Leonard - Sharon Van Etten and Waterbound - Dirk Powell. I have seen Dirk singing Waterbound at Transatlantic Sessions and really love that song. The MK version is pretty wonderful too, which he did on The Jools Holland Show. ;)

By the way, did he say a bit more this time about the songs? I haven't listened yet.
From the interviews I've read it seems to me that Mark not only has never been a guitar collector, but records collector as well. He said in his early days he traveled and moved so much he had no time (and space) to collect any records. From another interview I've read he uses Spotify like most of us. Well, not most of us, because Spotify isn't available in Russia yet so I have to use Apple Music instead and I'm kind of used to it at this point.
I think anyone who have money and love music have a decent or hi-end system, but if your name's not Neil Young I think you'll be good with Spotify :lol

Ha, Neil Young. What kind of hearing can he have left after decades of loud rock music :)
Anyway, I use Tidal. I have the Hifi subscription which gives you CD and better quality. I stream from my computer through a good DAC into a decent amp and speakers. Sounds great.
Why isn't Spotify (and Tidal for that matter) available in Russia?

Listening to the show now. I like this one better. Mark's seems a bit more into it, and the music is more interesting to me. And actually I like the fact that he isn't talking a lot. The playlist gives us a unique insight into his soul as it were. No need to explain anything.

It's quite rare to find people with great music taste, so I'm happy Mark is one of them! I knew it, but this show cemented this fact for me. I love the fact there's so many young artists on his jukebox, as opposed to Bob Dylan, who've seemingly played dinosaur's music only on his show. The newer the music, the more dividing it can be so I understand people who dislike some of the tracks, but the fact is MK recommends good music, and I'm happy with that. More, please!
-
I like Lydia Lunch's song, what a wonderfully out of tune singing, I wonder if this song can kill a man with perfect pitch :lol
But I just can't imagine how this song would sound in New York in the 80s, I think it sounded great, and it still sounds great.

Michael McGoldrick has also recorded "Waterbound". I like it very much!

MK listens to a really weird variety of music... what a strange old man he is ;D :lol
-
His music taste really is varied and cool! The songs are much more varied than I thought. Of course there are songs that I won't listen to more than once, but I fell for Bambinos' Amidinine straight away. And I love to hear him read out lyrics that he likes 8)

I’m loving The Fruit Bats. I’d never heard of them.

I really dig Yo La Tengo now, which Mark skipped for 20 years himself. Man, second episode in and already a dozen of new discoveries. Mark, don't stop! Please!

oh man, such an gem to have him do this! Who would've thought this would happen, Mark Knopfler having his own radio show at 70?
Such a great thing to have insight in the music taste of the man whose music we all listen to a lot. I'm digging this show!

Interesting to notice how little the guitar features in these songs. Mark is becoming Guitar George.

Ah, never mind then. I'll try to pass on the message that this thing belongs to Mark's YouTube channel. Yes, clearing the rights for all the songs is a very tricky thing to do, but come on man, USA and Canada only... It can't be.

As he broadcasts "from" BG and it is at 03:00 am cet, I am pretty sure it is all prerecorded .question is only, all finished already, or week per week?

Am hoping someone will be adding a link to the new episode soon? ) Loved the last 2 shows! The music MK is introducing to us is right up my alley and you can definitely hear why he likes them. The Spotify playlist is a godsend :)

Yes, it's definately edited.

All the shows are recorded, so it's not live at all.

Hopefully MK is self isolating on the south coast.
He’s an old man and was a heavy smoker for many years.

Nice to see The Barr Brothers from Montreal in there. The entire album is worth a listen. I remember this particular song (Even the darkness has arms) mentioned in Guy’s tour diary a few years back as a ‘track of the day’. I bet many of these new bands Mark presents in this show were found while being on tour and having those famous gin & tonic sessions late at night after the gig.

Hi Binone
Binone thank you very much for this episode. So much good music
It's really great that Mark is doing these radio sessions. Every week I am really excited to hear the new episode. This way I get to meet new musicians and bands that I never would have found otherwise.
Mark keeps up the good work and stays virus free.

Will try to record all the episodes. Although I live in Spain, I can listen to Sirius through internet, as, I suppose, any of you can do. There is a 10 days time to use it without even registering, and this can be longed to the infinite, just erasing your browser cookies. This time the recording came later because they didn't posted it on demand, and had to wait to be rebroadcasted.

Oh, no new show this week. :'(
Thanks for the info binone.
Could this mean that the shows are not pre-recorded but live shows eventually
and Mark could not go to the studio because of the restrictions we all have to follow?
Hopefully he is doing fine.
-
I'd say that not all shows are recorded but a certain number of shows, and MK is recording shows while the station is broadcasting the recorded ones. As he's not recording anything right now because of the situation, the station has stopped the broadcast to avoid running out of shows too early...

That’s why sometimes you need to be in touch with your fans, so at least they know should they wait for a new episode or what. I’m genuinely confused.

I hope everyone is enjoying the Spotify playlist! I have many new fav songs since listening to the show.
Blind Willie McTell- Bob Dylan - My fav at the moment.
LOVE Waterbound- Dirk Powell.
San Luis, 1st shot got him, Love the way you walk away etc... too many to name.
If you haven’t listened to the show please check out the Spotify playlist as the songs MK has introduced are amazing!
Please keep safe everyone! Thinking of you all...Knopfler is carrying me through the lockdown here in NZ :)

About the 'Creole love call'
https://www.amarkintime.org/forum/index.php?topic=3102.0

No surprises once again I love everything Mark played in this episode. Thanks for the opportunity to experience it!
The Folk Police - Peatbog Faeries: Great energetic tune! Really reminds me of Hard Cases, agree with Dutchessy.
Lisa Hannigan - Fall: 2016! Fresh blood! Enough said.
Duane Eddy & The Rebels - Because They´re Young: I think only a dead man wouldn't want to play guitar after hearing it. Such a classic!
The Everly Brothers - Don´t Forget to Cry: I looooove Mark's approach of not being predictable and boring, and a very good song from Evs indeed!
Aimee Mann - Goose Snow Cone: 2017! Fresh blood again!
Duke Ellington - Creole Love Call: Lovely version of this classic, great jazz arrangement, great bass.
Bruce Molsky - Shove The Pig´s Foot a Little: From Mark's "second last album" lol! Great that Mark said about his version of this tune and he acknowledges that it's a bonus track. It's a shame. And of course all the lyrics are his, since it's an instrumental reel.
Marco Beltrami & Dirk Powell - La Terre Tremblante: Je Suis Desole vibes of course with this cajun music.
Tom Waits - Back In The Crowd: Great song, sounds like a song from 1960s, but it's actually 2011.
Mississippi Fred McDowell - Write Me A Few Lines: National steel classic.
Me'Shell Ndegeocello - If That´s Your Boyfriend (He Wasn´t Last Night): WOOOOOOOOOOOOW! Such a cool track, reminds me Men In Black song a bit, it has similar "coolness" to it. Very unexpected of Mark to recommend something like that, but I love that!

He should do a weekly at the beep!

Great music, absolutely lovely tunes, maybe in the next times he can present also JJ and Shads songs... ;)

I can't wait for Mark to play some Fleet Foxes songs, I'm absolutely sure he knows the band, but my life will be complete when the two will collide. He just can't skip probably the most Dylanesque modern band.

Thanks for sharing Eps. 4 with us, binone. :clap
What a happy day!
Haven`t listend yet, but tonight lying flat on the sofa I will enjoy Mark`s music and his wonderful voice. ;)

I find his voice an effort to listen to. It always sounds as though it's a struggle for him to speak and he's so slow it makes me want to wind him up before I drift off.
-
Thank you Binone.
-
I hope Mark enjoys recording these shows as much as we enjoy listening to them and he will never stop doing it.
Again he picked out a lot of great songs much of them I`ve never heard before. I love the mix of old and new songs. :thumbsup

Yeah, not quite radio voice of the year. It would probably be easier for him if he had someone with him in the studio. The segments are quite heavily edited, I think.

Marco Beltrami & Dirk Powell - La Terre Tremblante: Je Suis Desole vibes of course with this cajun music.
Me'Shell Ndegeocello - If That´s Your Boyfriend (He Wasn´t Last Night): WOOOOOOOOOOOOW! Such a cool track, reminds me Men In Black song a bit, it has similar "coolness" to it. Very unexpected of Mark to recommend something like that, but I love that!
Marco Beltrami & Dirk Powell - La Terre Tremblante: Man what a song !
Me'Shell Ndegeocello - If That´s Your Boyfriend (He Wasn´t Last Night): Agree, unexpected but I understand the influence behind songs like No can do or Nobody does that or Broken bones
-
Very enjoyable again, especially La Terre Tremblante! Regarding MK's voice, I thought it sounded quite weak and trembly this week. I hope he's OK.

This kind of Mark's voice and his shaky hands and heavy breathing gives me tremendous anxiety, I know that's life, but I hate to see it still. Hope he's OK too!

Me too. He appears to be slow in everything he does, from his movement to his speech as well as being shaky. Maybe I find it a difficult listen because I don't want to hear him sound like that. :-\

Hey everyone, I'm from Poland. This is my first post, but I've been following this forum for years. Could I ask for Mark's second broadcast? Unfortunately, I missed and I would like to listen. A soothing voice in these hard times

I noticed this, also. Maybe just a bad day. At his age not every day is the same. From deep of my heart I am hoping all is well with him.

La terre tremblante is cajun and can remind of Je suis désolé

Thanks again, binone. This episode was really good. I love the Bill Frisell version of Shenandoah, which features Ry Cooder incidentally.

OMG I never thought Mark would listen to the Twareg music, the berber music and Tinariwen, really unexpected.
Here is a track I want to share here

Yes, I do agree with you.
A very enjoyable episode, lots of great songs and I liked to listen to the little stories between the songs.
-
Very pleased to hear the inclusion of Ijahman Levi. Great selection.
I read somewhere this influenced tracks like Ride Across the River

Earlier songs too, when I was transcribing songs like Once Upon A Time In The West, In The Gallery, Communiqué and some others I was constantly thinking "man, it sounds like it was written by somebody heavily influenced by reggae". And it was before I actually heard that they really were indeed influenced by reggae. The power of music.

Thanks Binone! :)
Amazing ep! enjoyed every song! Especially loved the Dean Martin song! :)
Yeah! I was listening to it right now while reading this, lol. Reminds me a bit of "That Sunday, That Summer" by Nat King Cole. I think Mark would dig this song too! I love it sooooo much.

That's one of the songs that Bob Dylan ripped off on Modern Times (Beyond the Horizon).

Great episode again, thanks for the upload!
I'm an avid Neil Young fan but have always skipped that "Everybody's Rockin'" record. Great little song, "Wondering'", though!
Never could've thought MK would bring me to that ;-)

It amaze me that, having in AMIT people from North America and Canada, it's a guy from Spain the one who captures and shares all the programmes to everyone...

First off, I have the feeling that Mark is getting more and more comfortable at his "new job".
Again he presented a great variety of good music and I enjoyed his storytelling.
He said "Variety is the spice of British Grove Broadcast". That`s how it is. :thumbsup
There`s so many good music out there that I haven`t heard before and I cannot imagine a better guide
than Mark Knopfler to show me around. ;)
-
Brilliant again, made my day! Loved it. Great music and great stories.

Yes, guys, I feel you. Don't know what we'd do without this show honestly. Absolutely love the Randy Newman story and this song of The Everly Brother I never heard before. Mark got me, again, what a magician.
-
I have the feeling that the show is growing better episode by episode. Now the first and second seems boring in comparison...
He sounds more and more comfortable.
-
He is like a grandpa telling war stories for me.
-
It feels good to realise Mark actually resembles the person I though he was: Open-minded, eclectic, interesting, passionate, calm, clever and humourous. He has his many defects, to be sure, but he is a well of science as far as music is concerned.
Very good broadcast in these dire times.

Great episode again, especially liked the Isaac Alexander song. Anyway, very nice to have this show as a weekly beacon in these dire times. Hope it will continue for quite a while, fingers crossed!
-
I hope it continues too! Best Ep so far I think! Great variety of music introduced by the one and only! ;)
I hope the BGBC Spotify playlist will be updated sometime soon! ;D

Wonderful episode! Love how Mark talks about the Everly’s, you can really tell how dear their songs are to him. And we’ve got a good part of the story that is in the lyrics of Two Skinny Kids as well, still hoping that gem will see the light on a proper release sometime. On the other hand I have a hard time believing Mark really digging that hip hop stuff, to me that just sounds more like he’s trying not to come across as an old dude stuck in the past.

I don't think so, because as an old saying goes, there's good music and bad music... I know good rap albums, hip-hop album and even good metal albums, though I hate metal with all of my heart. Could you call Gorillaz bad hip-hop? I don't think so. It depends on various factors... This particular track by The Roots is so groovy and bluesy, the song itself sounds like Mark would want to do it, except for the vocal bit of course :lol No instance of bad music so far in his jukebox.

Not my favorite episode this. Good music overall, but very mellow (mellow is where Mark has been at for the last 10-15 years, so no surprise there really). I actually enjoyed the "roots hip hop".
-
and the 2nd time he mentioned "my brother David"
-
Today’s episode promises to be good! Judging from the excerpt on Mark’s social media.

Yes, thanks so much! Amazing to hear I Just Called To Say I Love You here... And it's amazing how the music can connect people. When I was 4 or 5, I remember this song when we traveled across the country with my family in mid 90s, it was already a classic, though only a 10 years old song. This song brings me so many memories from that trip, as well as many other late 80s and early 90s classics. Knowing that Mark has the same kind of an affection for it is eye opening really.
In a way, a missed opportunity to feature another great cover by The Shadows.

Again a BIG thank you, Binone! :wave I enjoyed the show a lot.
Thanks to Mark I made a big discovery today. Phil Lee!
Since I`ve never heard of this artist before, I looked him up and learned that he is a singer/songwriter from Nashville.
Great voice, great songs. I need to hear more of him.
-
The biggest surprise for me was to learn that When You Leave is the only MK track without Mark playing any guitar on it. That’s pretty cool. Richard does a fine job there indeed, and he obviously feels very comfortable in this jazzy environment

According to the booklet of DTRW Mark must have played the guitar.

According to the booklet of DTRW Mark must have played the guitar.
What the booklet says about When You Leave? I’m surprised with both, because both this and Slow Learner is not the hardest rhythm in the world and almost no soloing. By the way, also probably the rhythm in You’ll Never Walk Alone was played by MK. Because the booklet says it was RM, but I’ve asked him and he’s not sure.
-
I can only assume that Mark was the one playing the guitar, because neither Richard Bennett nor Robbie MacIntosh were mentioned as additional guitarist on this track.
But who knows but the man himself (Mark) can give us the correct answer.

Thank you, Binone! For this episode, and the others!

It's always great to hear where our favourite artists draw their inspiration from, even if we're maybe not so keen on those songs ourselves. But you can see how Mark distills a mix to get the sound he wants.
Is it just me, or does anyone else think When You Leave sounds different to the album version? It may just be how it sounds through 'radio,' but it sounds a rougher cut to me. I'm also wondering how many other guitar parts we attribute to Mark, but were actually played by Richard, or somebody else.

Throughout the years of working with Mark Richard has developed a unique skill of sounding so much like MK you can sometimes barely distinguish them apart, which is not easy feat, but may be intentional. I don't know when I was listening to When You Leave, I thought it was MK or Richard, I thought what a great rhythm playing that is. So it was a surprise for me definitely. Knowing this one can assume "Floating Away" is also with Richard's rhythm, but it has Mark soloing so it's more obvious.
In the end of the day, it's only rhythm playing, it's important, yes, but Mark always can rely on others for playing it unless it's a truly unique rhythm like Walk Of Life or something.
-
Indeed surprising. I remember when I first listened to Shangri-la and thought it was Richard was playing the solo, but I turned out to be wrong of course. Richard indeed is a fantastic player, those lead parts by him on the other track that Mark played on the latest episode are extremely tasteful, truly beautiful. On the other hand he’s not always the best for a part, for example he never got anywhere close to the feel of the acoustic part on STP which so important in this song imho (but you definitely do nail that one Pavel btw).

Yeah, that's life, you can't always be pleased with everything. I never liked the drums in live versions of What It Is done by pretty much any MK's drummer, I'm pretty sure I don't like more, but I can't remember straight away what exactly. Guy's Continental organ maybe :lol
The important bit is that if we don't like something, it seems to please The Maestro, so the world is in balance. I also wish Mark would play Bonapart live with electric bass at least once in his lifetime, but that's only dream, only dream...
-
Bonaparte with a Gibson les Paul would be something!
-
Bonaparte with a Gibson les Paul would be something!
Yes, that's what I'm talking about. Mark plays this tune for 20+ years and never changed anything really. Some experiments would be nice :lol
Bonaparte with electric and Bonaparte with double bass like on the album is two different songs... With an electric guitar it would be a blast!
-
The biggest surprise for me was to learn that When You Leave is the only MK track without Mark playing any guitar on it. That’s pretty cool. Richard does a fine job there indeed, and he obviously feels very comfortable in this jazzy environment
What about Slow Learner? Does MK play guitar on that track?
According to the booklet of DTRW Mark must have played the guitar.
What the booklet says about When You Leave? I’m surprised with both, because both this and Slow Learner is not the hardest rhythm in the world and almost no soloing. By the way, also probably the rhythm in You’ll Never Walk Alone was played by MK. Because the booklet says it was RM, but I’ve asked him and he’s not sure.
When I chatted to Robbie, he said to me that he played the rhythm guitar for both JABAFH & EHITR...
-
Indeed, he played on those tracks, but the parts may be re-recorded or something, hence him not being sure about it. Anything goes with Mark’s albums, even having Guy seemingly documenting stuff it happens all the time. I wonder is it really this hard to tell people who’ve played on tracks and what instruments was used? Given Mark probably has more guitar geeks among his fans than your typical rock musician, it would be helpful. But seems like rocket science.

i believe it is exactly that's why, then it's not the song is meant to be.

Doc And Merle Watson - If I Needed You sounds just like Get Lucky, that's where Mark got inspiration for this song :lol
Moondog - Bird's Lament that's a new discovery for me, seems like a cool guy, lots of listening to come
Otis Redding - Change Gonna Come songs like that is the reason why I love music, what a great version of the song!
Ennio Morricone - Deborah's Theme I agree, Morricone's list of work is one of the most impressive things in the world, go on Wiki and check it out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_compositions_by_Ennio_Morricone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_compositions_by_Ennio_Morricone)
The Cascades - Rhythm Of The Rain Doo-Wop is the type of music I'd listen on a deserted island, the type of music I always enjoy to listen to, truly immortal music, being extremely vocal in its core and so simple, Doo-Wop forever, I have a whole playlist of that music

Thanks for this. I’ve been hoping Mark would play some Julie Fowlis for months now, so I’m happy.
-
Binone, thanks for the new episode. :clap
Once again Mark presented a great variety of songs.
My discovery of the latest episode is singer/songwriter Leif Vollebekk who`s voice and singing style sounds very interesting to me.
I`ve always hoped that Mark sometime will play a John Anderson song because I know both did a few great songs together. Now he made my day. :D
I am a longtime fan of John Anderson and his version of Marks "When it comes to you" is my favourite one. Sorry, Mark!
Now I am wondering who`s your favourite version, the one by the Straits or John Anderson?
(Sorry I don`t know how to upload a link to the songs) :hmm

I loved the songs Zero 7 did with Sia a few years ago. I wonder how long it will be before he plays something by the Rocket Dolls? Or even any by some dude by the name of David Knopfler...? Shame the two can't have a head to head, sort whatever issues they have, and bang out a few tunes together. Even an album. Time is supposed to heal, or so they say.

New Episode 11: https://we.tl/t-NIHHq7NHEq
A-ma-zing as always. Seems like Mark is going to collect all the best music from the world in this program, still not a single bad song!
The legend has it, if a song features slide guitar or a resonator guitar of some sorts, it gets an automatic seal of approval from Mark :lol
-
Good to see a Ron Sexsmith tune in there, albeit not his own version. One of the finest songwriters in the business if you ask me.
-
I wonder how much chapters he recorded for this broadcast... :think
-
At the start i didn't expect it to be this much :)
-
I wonder how much chapters he recorded for this broadcast... :think
It doesn't take too much, you can nail down like 5 episodes in one working day, so I reckon it's going to last.
Also, the most obvious fact that shows were prerecorded is that he never mentioned COVID yet or I missed it.
The funniest thing to me is that Mark built his own studio. Expectations: more albums, more albums, more songs. Reality: Mark goes there to play records :lol
-
What an amazing list of songs. Mark has such an unique musical taste.
I`ve been most excited about the new episode. Hope he will go on for ever and ever.
Love to see that Rodney Crowell belongs to his jukebox, as well. I´ve been a big fan since many years.
THANKS A LOT for all your work you do for us, Binone! :wave

Rodney Crowell
'Till I Gain Control Again
I checked the personnel playing on that album (Stars on the Water), and Albert Lee is on that list. I'm pretty sure that's him playing the beautiful solo on that track. It wouldn't surprise me if Mark has stolen a few licks from it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw89HuuPy2U (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw89HuuPy2U)
Here's Albert playing it live years later. Either he copied the guitarist who played the solo (Vince Gill played electric guitar on the album too), or he's the one who played on the song. It's very similar:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot-VyGFC1xo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot-VyGFC1xo)
At any rate, Albert Lee is not only hot licks and fast playing. He can play very Mark-like (or Mark can play very Albert-like :) ).
-
Just finished listening to the new episode and must say GREAT - what a fantastic mix of new and old songs.
I have the feeling Mark gets more and more comfortable with this format which gives me hope that he will go on for a long time.
Binone....THANKS YOUUUU! :clap

No, there wasn't a new episode.

For me the point of these broadcasts is to discover new things. Hearing a tune by The NHB, that we would obviously know, would be a waste of space, that's just how I see things. He could always play the original to one of the Hillbillies cover or a piece by Brendan Croker.

Thank you and I also have a message to all the AMITers — let's discuss the music here, let's don't have a million of clones of messages saying "thank you". I click on this topic to see some input about Mark's show, but 99% of the time I get "thank you, thank you, thank you", and that's kind of annoying. Thank you!

I am positively surprised. Nick Cave! :)

HAIM's Now I'm In It and Liz Lawrence's Navigator probably the most pop-music sounding song so far in the show, great songs though. But so pop, oh my! Not even "alternative", but pop.
The Everly Brothers' Sleepless Nights, great to hear that Mark loves to transcribe songs himself, "it took me quite a while to work out the chords for it".
Frank Sinatra's Where Or When Interesting what Mark thinks about Bryan Ferry's version of that song.
I love how Mark keep mentioning his friend Vince, he even got a mention in a song (Basil), I mean Mark never even mention his wife in a song. That's a lifetime friendship, got to respect that.

I mean straight out dropping a name into the song, that's unusual. Anyway, what I find funny is that Mark keeps mentioning him in so many interviews and such, as if we know who he is, but we have no idea. He could just say "a long time friend of mine", but he insists on using a name. I know I'm being an awful nerd here, but Mark is so strange sometimes :lol

Man, Mark could've picked out at least one bad song, but no, after 150 odd songs still not a single bad one. I think this Mark guy could become a really good musician :lol
Ray Bonneville - Oxford Town sounds almost like it came off of MK's album, oh my.
Bobbie Gentry - Eleanor Rigby it's funny Mark says this song is easy to play on the guitar, considering there's no guitar on the original record. But it's easy, yes. Great to hear Mark discuss some chords for a while :lol
I love that Mark doesn't hesitate to bring out so many covers, usually, creative people be like "covers are bad", but he seems to enjoy so many cover versions. And that's great because some covers are even better than the original.

Sarah Jarosz, Ring Them Bells
The rest I found rather soporific, but probably need a few more listens for a proper assessment, if I can keep my eyes open long enough! I must applaud MK on his eclectic taste in music, though! :)

Four of the songs I liked immediately.

I find that Mark's taste in music generally tends towards the soporific/quiet/laidback, and I feel many of the tracks he has presented during these radio show have informed his own music over the last ten fifteen years or so.

Beautiful Cover Of Bob Dylan, "Ring them bells", with slide guitar on LP album. Thanks à lot.
-
I love that Mark doesn't hesitate to bring out so many covers, usually, creative people be like "covers are bad", but he seems to enjoy so many cover versions. And that's great because some covers are even better than the original.
I think you can make a distinction between a cover that is performed by a tribute band versus a cover performed by an artist who makes the song their own. A tribute band is just trying to copy the original artist and generally isn't adding anything new.
Whereas an artist like Bobbie Gentry who is covering a well known Beatles song has arranged it in a new and fresh way.
It's kind of like playing a blues standard or a bluegrass standard.
I also think it's pretty cool that he followed up Bobbie Gentry's cover with a cover of a Bobbie Gentry song! A bit of cleverness in the playlist that makes you pay attention to Mark's comments!
I agree that Ray Bonneville's Oxford Town sounds like a recent MK song. I like it.
Other likes:
Ramsey Lewis Trio - Hard Day's Night
Bobbie Gentry - Eleanor Rigby
Dirk Powell - Say Darling Say
Tim O'Brien - Red Dog In the Morning
Sarah Jarosz - Ring Them Bells

I'm guessing that's how Mark looks at it.

Absolutely, and since you've mentioned it, sometimes artists (not cover bands) cover someone else's songs note for note, this is something I can't understand. OK, you decided to play this song, so at least change something :lol
-
The following songs made me feel very good ;) when I listend to them.
Ray Bonneville - Oxford Town
Wish Mark would do a cover sometime
Dirk Powell - Say Darling Say
Tim O'Brien - Red Dog in the Morning
Bobbie Gentry - Eleanor Rigby
Sarah Jarosz, Ring Them Bells
I also liked Weyes Blood - Movies
If there was not a female singer, you might think that this song was by the British rockband The Muse.
Fantastic song.

I love the story about Bobbie Gentry going completely off stage. If you think about it, this might be probably the hardest thing to do for a man. You have everything, money, fame, success, and then you just leave it all alone. That takes tremendous willpower, but in the long run, saves you from dying poor or in obscurity, or with people laughing at you, or forgetting you. The ultimate form of leaving early is probably The 27 Club. Imagine we'd now have 77-year-old Jim Morrison :lol But he's the legend instead. I respect each man and woman who can quit with dignity. Because only time will tell who is who anyway.

Reading your message the song „Will you catch a falling star“ written by Boddy Braddock came to my mind immediately.
You are absolutely right. I also have the biggest respect for everyone who manages to find the right time to take this step back.
To make this decision sure is very hard, but otherwise you could end up like this person in the song.
Here are the lyrics
Would You Catch A Falling Star
You know the crowd was very small for a country music show
But he faked a curtain call just like it was years ago
And then a lady grabbed his arm as he staggered down the aisle
And with all his country charm he addressed her with a smile.
Would you catch a fallen star before he crashes to the ground
Don't you know how people are nobody loves you when you're down
Pick me up and take me home and I'll bring my old guitar
Sing a golden oldie song if you'll catch a fallen star.
He had a silver plated bus and a million country fans
Now there's just a few of us and he drives a little van
And they were beatin' down his door the lovely women left and right
And now he's on a hardwood floor a wonderin' where he'll spend the night
Would you catch a fallen star before he crashes to the ground
Don't you know how people are nobody loves you when you're down
Pick me up and take me home and I'll bring my old guitar
Sing a golden oldie song if you'll catch a fallen star
Sing a golden country song if you'll catch a fallen star.
I only know the version by John Anderson. But there might be other artist having recorded this song, also.

Mark clearly admires Bobbie Gentry for walking away from it all.
To be honest, I had to Google her to see that she was still alive. I assumed that she was dead.

Thanks to the man who organized a "British Grove Broadcast" playlist on Spotify, because this service is finally available in Russia and the first thing I did was I added this playlist instantly. The proper playlist is playlist from the user by the name of markknopfler_fanatic, right? The only gripe I have is that it could be better-organized chronologically speaking. Because the first song ever on the show was the one by Fruit Bats, but now it's Thelonius Monk.
UPD: One more request — please, add "The" before the title of the show, it looks like it's missing something that way.
UPDDDD: Also, some versions of the songs are wrong, e.g. A Case Of You by Joni Mitchell is the one with strings, not the regular version.

I will do that actually when I have more time. It will be 100% accurate, with proper versions and such.

Brilliant! I loved Mark's story about the school. It's funny how we're all hate school, but somehow grow up normal human beings :lol
I wish he would play a stripped-down version of Into The Mystic which I posted earlier, but the original is also great. Van the man!

do i need to do anything for that spotify update, or will it simply be updated next time i open it?
i sent it to my mother, who is in hospital revalidating from a broken foot for 3 to 6 weeks and she loved the music. (went to MK with me twice, 2006 tour opener in Brussels and 2010 in Antwerp)

Yes, it just updates on its own, maybe even with no reopening required (I'll test that later). The reason I made my own playlist was not to offend other folks doing it, but because when the ambiguity arises among some tracks, and for a lot of tracks there's more than just 1 version from 1 album, people often will choose the other track, not the one played by Mark. It can be as different as having a slower tempo, another take, live version or different version altogether. So I had to dial each track by hand to avoid just that. Kudos to your mother for having such a great taste in music!

with such a great son it was not much of a suprise. and she is only 67 :-)

I have always loved to listen to CCR and to hear them here on the show was nice.
Although the song was nothing new to all of us. ;)
Mark sounds more and more relaxed in front of this mic and seems to enjoy it.
My discovery of this week is Michael Hurley, Iron & Wine and The Staves.

I love the music so much exactly for the fact that for somebody even the song like Lookin Out My Back Door can be new and refreshing, despite that fact it was released 50 years ago. There are always people who never heard your favourite song and if you play it and he will like it, that's the greatest thing in the world.

It's a pity that this show is pretty much underrated. And it can't be overrated because the radio show is not the best way to communicate with fans these days... Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour started in the times we had no HD videos even, radio was a good spot to be in. Nowadays, having a radio show is a bit like using a rotary telephone — may do the job, but ridiculously old-fashioned. This may add to Mark's old-school view of the world but won't benefit us fans as I think.
Mark's show begs to be in the form of a podcast, preferably with video portions as well, especially since British Grove Studios is such a marvellously beautiful place, not only "great place to enjoy music". He could do much better, but this format seems to please him and that's fine. It's fine for me too, but in order to listen to it, I must be a die-hard fan who uses fan forums and stuff like that and can't listen to the show officially at all.
With that said, I feel extremely privileged to enjoy music recommended not by anyone, but by Mark Knopfler. I dreamed about it ever since I've read an article where he said he loves playing Oscar Peterson records at home. And now you have basically the handpicked playlist filled by brilliant stories, begging to be in the form of a book. But certainly not in the form of the elusive radio show you can barely find.
I understand that radio provides the absence of licensing issues, but to be completely honest listening to music is not the most important part of the show. The best part is the stories. If I had all the time in the world, I'd create a website with all the episodes transcribed, with just names of the songs. I mean who wants, he will find all the songs. But you won't find the stories, and that's my point.

Why shouldn`t this show be a good way to communicate with the fans?
For me radio still is and always will be a great source to get all kinds of information.
So Marks radio show is just perfect for me. I love to hear his voice, love to hear his stories, and last but not least love to hear all of the great songs coming from HIS jukebox. What can you expect more from your favourite musician than hearing his voice each and every week on the radio presenting songs most of them new to you. I really enjoy it! We all know that Mark has never been a big fan of videos, so why should he do what he isn`t fond of. And as long as Mark is having fun doing it, he will keep on going. And that`s the best thing of all.
What I have to complain is that the show is not available to all of us fans worldwide.
What a pity! Binone, your job is being appreciated so much!
Just my opinion, but maybe I am a bit old fashioned, too. ;)

Because I hate when content is not available even if you're willing to pay for it. I'd pay 30 bucks a month, or whatever just to listen to this programme and have a transcription, but I can't. Instead, just like young Mark sitting with a radio under the blanket listening to the Radio Luxembourg, you're trying to catch something for free that can't be found the more approachable way. So that's more authentic if you think about it :lol
The music industry is still fundamentally broken. You have streaming platforms, from which the artist gets nothing, but at the same time, you have shows like MK's show available in just two countries. Needless to say, 2 countries... is less than 195 countries that actually in the world. In result, the artist gets less money and views, people have trouble finding the content, no-win for everybody.
That's just me hating on the availability, but all other aspects are great, of course. I still want a book from MK, however, I don't think that he will ever write a book and that's a shame. All his stories are so insane and so funny and memorable.

Chapter One : How I blew the family radio :smack
Well, in written form this story might actually be amazing and interesting. You see, when Mark usually tells the infamous radio story, that's usually a one-minute short monologue, so he can't come up with anything really new on the spot. In the book, however, that story can really become a whole chapter. Even in this radio broadcast, Mark gives himself more freedom, than on usual stupid interviews with stupid questions, I mean that Mark works better alone when it comes to telling stories. I know people who need the link between them and the story, and they are great storytellers, but not everyone is a good one-man-band storyteller. And I think that Mark is one of them.
I imagine his book of stories be something like "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!", which is merely a collection of stories from a genius theoretical physicist. After reading that book and other books by Feynman you feel like you knew the man in person. I want something like this from Mr. MK and not only I think he's capable of doing that, but to a certain extent, I think he's gonna actually do that. I hope that the radio show is a good start in this direction.
-
I haven't read anything by Kitty, but maybe she should write the authorized MK biography? Mark says he loves her writing.

Oh, that’s a good point, that would add so much to the value of that book. I can bet this idea was discussed between them, it can’t be that it wasn’t discussed at some point. A talented writer, the wife of the accomplished musician writing a book about him that’s a guaranteed success. I know Mark said he can’t write prose, but I believe he was talking about fiction. Autobiography, however, is non-fiction. Let’s dream. The obvious fact is that he has the urge to tell the stories of his life to the broad audience.
-
He should do something akin to Ray Davis storyteller. Book and attached album, and very funny too....

If Mark wants to write a book, he will do it. Otherwise you can forget it. ;)
But he is doing a new episode tonight, so let`s look forward to it. :wave

Mark said there are many versions of Some Enchanted Evening, and that's true. I recommend the version by Frank Sinatra, not the popular one, but rather this. The duet with Rosemary Clooney. This is probably the most beautiful version of the tune that ever existed. This YouTube version is not so good in quality for some reason, just find it somewhere else.

BUT this track by Jeff Beck was nothing but horrible to my ears.
Sorry, but I really cannot imagine Mark likes it.
It's a very impressive live performance by Jeff Beck, basically a bluesy piece. Contemporary blues sounds like that, that's not B.B. King for sure, but not bad!
Johhny Has Gone For A Soldier is far stranger to me, especially this lonely beat in the outro :lol :lol

Mark has a broader musical taste than a lot of his fans, I think :wave

A lot of his what? :lol :lol :lol
That's not broad musical taste, broad musical taste is then you jump from The Beatles to Slipknot, and then from Mark Knopfler to Marilyn Manson, and top that with some avant-garde jazz and contemporary classical albums, and then enjoy some rap and drum and bass, plus obscure traditional songs of Russia and other second world countries, that's broad. Stupid, but broad :lol Mark plays good songs, I won't say that the spectrum is extremely wide, but he did play experimental jazz and some pop numbers, as well as The Roots and surprising tracks like If That's Your Boyfriend (He Wasn't Last Night). But all in the bluesy-folky-funky end of the spectrum, with elements that can certainly appeal to people who loves MK's music. So far, not a single track would stand out like a sore thumb in the playlist, it's consistent. With some songs, pay attention when Mark says that it's from a particular album. For instance, Johhny Has Gone For A Soldier is from a collection of 32 civil war songs, and in the context of that album, it sounds great.

I have listened to most of the episodes, and enjoyed it. The first ones I really *listened* to. Then I have been listening while doing something else. Then listened with one ear.. I usually love is "history lessons", but admit to find the episodes more dusty and boring now. The Jeff Beck song was horrible, the rest I can't remember ten minutes after, sorry. His voice is soothing as always, and I know I can't expect much, but I hope he comes up with something a bit different again in the next one :)

According to Guy, not all the British broadcast radio programs were recorded...
That means that in any moment, the last episode broadcasted, would be really the last... At least by now.
Maybe the last one is already the last recorded and there is no more episodes (hopefully, by now)...

It's funny that Guy listened to only one episode, reminds me when I asked Robbie McIntosh about a song from Down The Road Wherever and he said he haven't listened to the album yet. The album he played on :lol
My hope is that since Bob Dylan had more than 100 episodes, Mark can't just stop at 20 episodes. That's only 200 songs, not a very big collection in my book.

Think how much time should spend MK recording a program... Time that he is not recording songs!
-
Due to Corona he might not be able to record anyway, I don‘t think the band would be able to come from the US.
So at least he is giving something to us fans to enjoy!

He doesn't need to bring the band from the US. There are plenty of musicians in the UK that are used to work with MK (Robbie, Marcus, Geraint...) or they can record remotely, Guy recorded a soundtrack for a game like that...

One episode is like 45 minutes, stories obviously is something that can be prepared earlier. Maybe he's not even listening to the whole song, if so, he can record like 10 episodes in one session. I can hardly believe that he's sitting there and listening to songs in real-time. Bottom line, this is not hard at all :lol
I know because I tried it many times, if you have a long recording session that includes talking a lot, let alone singing, your voice deteriorates like crazy and you end up basically without a voice. So maybe those episodes where Mark's voice sounds especially weak were recorded later in the session :hmm
-
I don't think MK records 10 sessions per day... Maybe he doesn't listen to the whole song, but I'm sure the speeches are repeated until he's fine with what he said, my guess is that in good full days, he would do three or four. I can't see him arriving early to the studio, straight to the small room and being working there until late. We know he's not like that :lol

I am impatiently waiting for Mark to finally drop a song by the Arctic Monkeys. Like, I am 10000% sure he does have some of their records in his backpack. That bastard son of Bob Dylan called Alex Turner sure does know how to write lyrics from another planet. Stuff like A Certain Romance (Glastonbury version) is so unreal I can’t wait what does Mark think of him/them.
-
There was a bonus song, not on the list - Bill Broonzy! ;D I'm really enjoying this episode - thanks jbaent!
I found it interesting that Mark introduced the Big Bill Broonzy song "Going Down This Road" song by quoting the lines:
"I'm goin' where the chilly wind don't blow, baby
I'm goin' where the chilly wind don't blow, no more
I ain't gonna be treated this-a way
I'm goin' where the weather suites my clothes, baby
I'm goin' where the weather suites my clothes, tomorrow"
It made me think of Mark's song Get Lucky.
"And when I feel them chilly winds
Where the weather goes I'll follow"
Makes me think this artist and song may have served as an influence...
-
Mark plays a version of this at 7:28 of part 1 of the A Life In Song documentary, he also plays Get Lucky.
-
Thanks James! How cool is that!?
He does a pretty good imitation of Big Bill's singing too, for a Geordie boy!

Even Mark can't help but comment on that "And that's it." line after Feel Like Going Home demo LOL. Intimate versions like that are absolutely fascinating. Reminds me of Bridge Over Troubled Water demo by Paul Simon on guitar, or his René Magritte song, or Paul McCartney's rendition of "The Long And Winding Road" on some talk show with only a piano and his voice. Something great about stripped down versions of ballads. Speaking of ballads, can't agree more with Mark on playing slow... That gets absolutely obvious in jazz, where to play ballads you have to be a virtuoso no less.
-
After a very busy week Mark`s very relaxed 20st episode was just perfect for me.
I really enjoyed every song, but especially loved the wonderful demo version of Charlie Rich`s "Feel like going home" and the great Otis Redding tune.
It doesn`t get better. Thanks, Mark! :-*

It's difficult to say, but is Mark reading a script during these shows?
-
It's difficult to say, but is Mark reading a script during these shows?
I'd say yes, just because it would eliminate most of retakes, mistakes and pauses, because having a full episode in the head is a bit of overkill when you can just script it and write it down. Because of that, by the way, I treat this show a bit like an audiobook, it gives me a feeling that Mark reads a book or something, which only makes me want a book from Mark, narrated by him of course. That would be a blast!

Than you jbaent! Wow, no any "outfits" in the 21st episode :lol
Love all the contemporary outfits though, The Felice Brothers, Leon Redbone and Beth Rowley are amazing.
I love how Mark plays so many The Beatles covers. It reminds me of Radio Hermitage, a jazz radio station here in Saint Petersburg. And on the section called "Popular music in Jazz" they almost always put on one of The Beatles songs.
Funny how Mark played the same Django Reinhardt tune which was on the Metroland soundtrack album.
-
It was great to hear Sharon Shannon & Steve Earle's song "The Galway Girl" and Chance McCoy's "Gospel Plow" and also one of the pieces from the Metroland soundtrack "Blues Clair" by Django Reinhardt. The other one from that soundtrack is one of my favourites too - "Minor Swing" with Django and Stefan Grappelli on violin. For some unknown reason the guitar reminds me of Sultans. :)

Good catch, because the solo in Sultans clearly drew major inspiration from Django, which is even more prominent on live versions, and gets even more prominent with time. When Mark goes crazy with chromatic scales and wide arpeggios you know that comes from Django!
Sharon Shannon was a featured artist along with Mark on the show Sult - Spirit Of The Music. I think Mark has already totally forgotten he was there at all :lol By the way, the version of "Raglan Road" he played there is very similar to Van Morrison's version, I'm pretty sure he drew inspiration for his version from Sir Van.

Yes, Sir Van might have been an inspiration for his interpretation of "Raglan Road". Although MK is not the typical singer (or because?!), his "Raglan Road" sounds absolutely breathtaking and emotional to me. Love it!

I believe she died after these shows were recorded, but the song is really amazing! Also, I laughed on Mark's comment about a man with last name May dying in May and I feel bad for that, though it was Mark who started it :lol

Okay, I thought why not try transcribing The British Grove Broadcast one song at a time... I want to do this I don't know why. So it will take 5 minutes of my life to do every song, but I think it will worth it.

Hahaha! Brilliant. This is sort of confusion even I can't foresee. Yes, I was talking about transcribing Mark's words about the song, not the song itself! On average I think it will take 5 minutes, but of course sometimes it's just a couple of words and sometimes it's a whole chapter like in Morricone's case. I'm not a native speaker, but I'm not a native speaker with a trained ear, so that's not the impossible task.

If somebody could help me proofread this I would be happy. It's not about what I transcribed though, but more about what Mark actually said, so I'm looking for the real help.
You can edit the document any time, so go ahead. Don't try to vandalise it though, because it automatically saves all the versions, so it's easy to go back any time :lol

That's why I want to do this... I just love reading, probably even more than listening to someone with such a good speaking voice like Mark. But sometimes what I need is a screen, or a book, and just read something. Or if I want to search a song Mark played quickly and don't want to listen to the whole thing, then I would have a cue card handy to read it. Either way, that's an effort worth doing, and absolutely worth doing for someone who can't catch everything Mark says in his programme. let alone his comments are pure gold! Apart from obvious "This was *The Artist* with *The Song*" he has a cool sense of words and humour which I find fascinating.
-
I am very happy because I'm can't catch everything:) And I like reading too. I will wait patiently :)

I wanted to do this from day one, now I think about the enormous amount of stuff I need to transcribe, but so far it's fun. I did all the nasty job already with laying down all the tracks, designing the document and now I'm just transcribing the words. Not only it doesn't take much time, but extremely fun to do. If it's helpful for me, it's helpful for you.

Here's the link again, I don't know how to put it so not to put it in every message, but you get the idea. It's a transcription of everything Mark said in the programme:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d115Bt6OQwKCLlj9G60_YSO9Pe1UbTCYtEMTuVzaKu4/edit?usp=sharing
So far I laid down all the tracks and left blank spaces where Mark's comments will be, and almost finished transcribing the second episode.

:thumbsup I read with great attention and curiosity :)

Well, the first episode is done: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d115Bt6OQwKCLlj9G60_YSO9Pe1UbTCYtEMTuVzaKu4/edit?usp=sharing
If somebody could help me proofread this I would be happy. It's not about what I transcribed though, but more about what Mark actually said, so I'm looking for the real help.
You can edit the document any time, so go ahead. Don't try to vandalise it though, because it automatically saves all the versions, so it's easy to go back any time :lol
Crazy man! Thanks a lot!

Yeah seems crazy to me, but it's great. I can train my ears, train my English and yet make something valuable, no anythyng bad here at all! Love it.
I thought that this document is already 30 pages long. I imagine when finished it would be 200 pages long, like a book, lol. It's a book, concluded.
-
Okay, I decided to step my game up and now do this: every tune now has a YouTube link AND if Mark mentions some other song in connection to the main song, I'll link that one too. I'll put other important references in there so it will be sort of like The British Grove Broadcast Wiki. YES, I know that I'm crazy, thanks.
UPD: Episode 3 is now complete.

I read and listen one by one. Now it's even easier. Another great idea. Thank youuuuuu Pavel :)

Tatiana Hargreaves, Bruce Molsky, Danny Knicely - Foreign Lander
"The transatlantic mix that happens to music, maybe I’m listening to an old-time Irish or Scottish tune, but it’s what’s happened to it over in America. And then maybe it gets re-exported, and this is one of the wonderful things about songs"
Everything is here...

You’re welcome! I’ll open a separate topic when finish with it. I already did most of the work, need only to polish and put all the links. Got to say that I’ve successfully forgotten like 80% of the stories Mark told in the show, so having it in written form really, really helps.

It's difficult to find even for Mark himself looks like. I can't understand how such an accomplished and professional musician could get SO LITTLE attention online. You may say, well, he's just okay with that and don't need that. But come on, it's 21st Century.

I recommend using a Premium subscription on YouTube. Not only you won't have this motherload of TERRRIBLY ANNOYING ads anymore, you'll get the access to almost any music, too.
Honestly, watching YouTube with ads is a some kind of torture.

Thank you so much again, we don't take your work for granted making these episodes available for us.
Another great one! I just love it when Mark plays 2020 albums in his programme, I mean he's really on the edge here and listens to everything new.
Oldies-goldies wise it's cool to hear The Beatles at last, I always thought what was amazing about "I Will" is that the bass track here is actually completely Paul's voice! What a range his voice has, wow!
Nick Drake is another great one, I remember travelling by car with a guy, who is Nick Drake fan, and we spent our time listening to his whole discography on the road. Very road-friendly music for some reason, I have to say.
-
Regarding Roy Orbison, I would rather play a live version from "Black And White" special, because it's a freaking masterpiece of a concert. I think I rewatched and relistened it a million times.
Also, great songwriting here, absolutely unique songwriting from Roy.

Robert Lee McCoy - Friar's Point Blues
It's great that Mark returns often in stories to the early days Dire Straits. I love it:)

Literally every time Mark returnes to the days of Dire Straits in his programme you can tell that he has really a lot to say and can't even stop himself of telling tales. Another glimpse of hoping for a biography book from MK...
-
Exactly. Pavel I thought about the same:)
Another example: Ijahman Levi - Are We A Warrior
-
Bill Frisell - Shenandoah (For Johnny Smith)
I think when you hear playing like that you don't really listen critically so much as appreciatively. You're not listening for mistakes or anything like that. I think it's more in admiration of the total picture, the grasp of the total picture and the way that the artist is just appreciating the piece. Try to send it down the road the best way you know how, off to school in decent shoes...
Beautiful and important words.

-
Exactly. I often feel music this way.

I exactly know what you mean. I do feel the same.
-
That last track by Merle Haggard sounds a lot like Are we in trouble now. Perhaps the melody? Dunno maybe it’s just me
-
I listen to the broadcast with great attention. I love it. Mark Knopfler knows a lot about music. The history of rock and roll is great.
I'm waiting for episode 23 and I believe there will be more :)
ps. Bruce Springsteen has his shows too

Just saw on FB that there is a new episode today. :clap

Great, thank you! Looks like Mark decided to punch those, who loves Spotify, becasue this time 2 tracks are not on Spotify! It happend only twice before and here twice more in a single episode. So far just 4 tracks are missing from the playlist and it's good for me, don't know about you.
A great jazzy start, then Mark did something I can't understand — playing songs from the albums he played before, as if we haven't listened to the whole album already. Come on, Mark :lol

It's like he ran out of ideas, lol. Facebook MK account says that yesterday chapter was penultimate episode, so, just once left, at least from season one. No idea if there would be a season two, but, I rather have him recording new songs instead!
-
I can’t believe that 24 shows will be the end of things. Considering Mark stated in a couple of those, that he has tons more to share, that’s certainly not too much to share. I think yes, they would take a break and then resume with episodes, that’s how I see it anyway. And remember that each episode is just 5-7 minutes of Mark talking on average, so it’s not too hard to do for him.
-
Well, in 24 episodes he had repeated many artists and sometimes of the same record, so I won't bet there would be more. If he had really so much music, there is no need to repeat artists so many times...
-
Well, in 24 episodes he had repeated many artists and sometimes of the same record, so I won't bet there would be more. If he had really so much music, there is no need to repeat artists so many times...
I have a collection of about 3,000 songs, of which I would play on the radio show, if I had one, about 500. Mark, at 71, I think has like 30,000 songs on his jukebox, he lives for so long and he is in the business for so long that I think he can go on with this show forever. The fact that he played so many repeat apperances and similar folk pieces is just because he really likes it...
Hovewer, when I was putting my own playlist I thought I would not pick several tracks from one album, if that album is not a freaking masterpiece. Because that would be boring for me, let alone for the listener. But Mark is the boss, no complaints here.
For now it seems like 24th is going to be the last episode, which upsets the hell out of me. I hope this is really like one of these shows that says "Here's the final episode" and later go out saying "Hey, welcome to the second season". But honestly, the show is so underrated and ignored by fans, that it might as well come to an end. So many people I know who either don't care about Broadcast at all or don't know about it. So I wouldn't be surprised.
-
Don`t be so strict with him! It`s fine with me when Mark feels like playing another song of an album he loves.
Mostly there is more than one great song on an album and it`s hard to just pick one. This time he again picked a lot of brilliant songs.
I really hope that it wont take too long until he will return with this radio show.
Honestly, he can play a whole album for me and I would enjoy it. ;)

Yeah, but he has like just 10 spots for the episode, the real estate price is very high there :lol
Repeat apperances, to me, is like a wasted space, but Mark of course thinks about people who may not heard previous episodes and is trying to bring his favourite artist to the table again and again, I can perfectly understand that.
-
"But honestly, the show is so underrated and ignored by fans, that it might as well come to an end. So many people I know who either don't care about Broadcast at all or don't know about it. So I wouldn't be surprised"
Exactly. And I don't understand why. If someone doesn't like music, I understand. But the way Mark tells the story of rock n roll. It recalls the history of DS. Recordings with friends is fascinating and very important to me.
Thanks to these programs, I know more about MK. And I want more!

Because Mark underestimates how underestimated he really is. In my circle people know about MK just because I'm in it. If not that, nobody would care... In the grand scheme of things, obviously, Mark's show is interesting to die-hards basically. And there's not so many die-hards. We tend think there are many die-hards, but statistically speaking it's nothing. So naturally, not a lot of people tunes into Mark's programme.
Me, hovewer, I'm interested in new music, I'm just hungry for it, so the programme really speaks to me. I'm drunk right now so bear with me :lol
-
I completely agree with you.

The show is underrated and ignored by fans because the biggest percertage of MK fans are located in Europe, and this show is being broadcasted in a North American paid radio channel... Many fans don't know a thing about the existence of this show, and the ones that know about it, most of them can't listen to it because it's being broadcasted in a kind of martian weird radio that they can't listen, and a very little amount of fans had the luck to belong here, and thanks to Binone who does his magic, can listen to the show...
-
I absolutely agreed with you. That's exactly how it is and nothing else. Just remember his very successful last tour. He still is the man and the magic is still there. The fans still love him. It's a shame the radio show is not available here in Europe. And yes, we are lucky ones here on AMIT to be able to listen to the show, thanks to binone!

From Guy's forum:
Q: Hello Doc. MK social media mentioned that yesterday “British Grove Broadcast” episode was penultimate one.. Do you know, if MK mentioned you in any conversation, if there will be a second season, or this is it? It´s been a great musical travel this radio programmes!
A: That’s it as far as I am aware.

Yes, that was quite a bizarre journey, I can't remember consuming so much of a pirated content since my school days. So, I guess, if that's it, I should expand Spotify playlist with ALL the songs Mark mentioned, and that's a lot. This will be something of an interesting playlist at least. I thought it's going to have hundreds and hundreds of titles, and not like just 250.

This news ist VERY disappointing for me. :'(

Hope dies last guys, let's hope MK will find another way of sharing music or try a some kind of a new format. Clearly that wasn't the best idea as was stated above, especially for a British artist to emerge on the US radio station. Makes no sense... He did what Bob Dylan did, but Bob Dylan is an American artist! Clearly, British Grove is still here and clearly Mark wants to share music with the world, so let's see how it evolves.
-
I rather hear new MK music than MK playing others people music...
But that was better than nothing...
-

I don’t think that there’s a choice. Mark decided to do it seriously and professionally, and make it into a radio programme, in which only 5 minutes of MK talking transfers into 1 hour show with ads. He could achieve the same thing by just posting his favorite artists on social media and possibly get even a better result. And you can post from everywhere, even while sitting on the toilet.
But anyway, that’s not a choice, The British Grove Broadcast is easy to do and recorded in bulk months before it’s up and edited, he’s not up every day to be at work at 6:00 a.m. or something. That’s not delaying any new music is what I’m trying to say.

It looks like you don't know MK at all, LOL

Jerry Reed tunes are all like that. So much fun, but so tricky! I have never been able to play any of his songs perfectly, I just leave it to the man himself or Chet...
Well, a great final episode! I can't believe it's over, it was so much fun. 262 songs is not a lot by any means, especially that so many tracks are from the same albums.
But nevertheless, an incredible collection of songs, a brilliant collection of songs. Mark showed that his music taste is not just good, it's freaking PERFECT. No surprise he writes great songs himself.

"And actually, my own theory is - that the war delayed rock and roll"
Well, if you think about it, the war actually delayed everything... The stupidest thing ever. So many great minds died, so many songs weren't written, so many movies weren't shot. So many scientists died. All them stupid wars only delay everything.

It is true. We know it, but sometimes we don't think much about it...

I actually like the fact that opinions on this programme are so dividing. Some people can’t find it interesting, some (me) are so in love with it that able to undergo a tortures that is the transcribing and collecting a proper playlist.
What I find interesting is that people who don’t like it, they often share the same language with MK, could it be the reason? As if “what else can I hear what hasn’t been said before”. And hence not interested in this thing. I certainly would skip a programme of my favorite Russian musician.

Phil Lee and Richard Bennett - I hope love always knows your name
Another beautiful song. :)

Exactly.

Isaac Alexander is an extremely unknown artist, there’s barely any information about him and a Bandcamp album. That means that Mark is ALL OVER the internet, finding new songs and people. Who knew?

Yes, I was looking for Isaac Alexander songs on the internet and nothing. Mark gave me a difficult lesson to do. I hope not for the last time ...

The review is great, but I can't get one thing. Why it says 263 songs, but from what I can understand, there was only 262? Strange...

Reviews are never accurate or precise. The fans know better. You know better and we know better thanks to you :)
-

I can get your excitement, however can’t agree. While for artist is ok to joke that fans know better, in these things I personally trust the artist better. And here, since the reviewer is the co-author and said he worked on Broadcast with Mark in his studio, he should know exactly the number. And it’s 263. So 1 song got lost somewhere apparently. Maybe it was cut or something. So Mark even cuts his radio show lmao
-
He could have just accidentally pressed the 3 key instead of the 2 key?

I've made a decision and expanded the Spotify playlist with some songs Mark mentioned in the programme. About 50 titles just to spice it up a little. The playlist looks quite nice that way, 300 songs is way better than 262!

That's funny actually because I thought that was Mark who played the guitar on When You Leave. So it was a surprise for me to know he only did a "crooner" type of thing on it. And I also can't remember any tracks where he wasn't playing the guitar, so he's right there, too. A great addition to the list of songs for sure.

Exactly. I was surprised too.
Earlier Phil Lee i Richard Bennett - I Hope Love Always Knows Your Name and then Jim Cox. Nice connection:)

Last episode: Mark recommending a Springsteen song (Atlantic city) covered by The Band; that's REALLY cool in my eyes. It is a nice version too. For years I was forcefed with a few songs by The Band and I hated them, so it is nice to see another side of that band.

You got to hate The Band simply becasue of the band's name. What a bunch of jerks to call themselves THE band. I prefer the band name "The The".

:lol Well as you probably know, it was Bob Dylans band. I guess it just evolves, like Springsteen became THE Boss.

I`m currently listening to episode 20.
Mark picket lots of great songs but this outstanding demo version of "Feel Like Going Home" by Charlie Rich is breathtaking nice. Quite a gem.
-
I'm trying to do a compilation of the tracks with any MK influence on it (he played on the song, it's a song from someone that played with MK or is related to any MK memory or biographical event) and it's about four hours of music!
I wonder how I can do a 80' from 240 minutes, LOL

they started with Ronnie Hawkins, calling them "The Hawks"
Then they played as Dylan's backing band in 1965
I think that calling them "the band" was a good idea, maybe it was Bob's idea, I don't know
and they recorded some pure gems

Thanks. Yes, that happens sometimes, I hate when re-releases and different versions have an updated release date, makes no sense... And confuses a lot.

It would have been interesting to see the recording of this. I bet it looked quite awkward as there’s no way that MK is used to singing without holding a guitar so probably didn’t know what to do with his hands. If you watch Paul McCartney singing “Kansas City” at the Concert for Montserrat, it’s obvious that he doesn’t know what to do with his hands.

You can see that in the Time In The Sun clip as well. He’s acting funny because he’s awkward singing without a guitar.

For me preforming without guitar is a suicide. You need something to protect you from the audience, and the best way is to hide behind the instrument, whether it's a guitar, or a piano or something. My personal pet peeve is singers who just sing and don't play any instrument... Especially when you don't have enough musicians and here's this guy, who just sings and do nothing.
Of course, if the guy has the personality of your typical non-playing frontman (Mercury, Morrison, both Morrisons, etc.) that's acceptable. But for people like MK, I think, singing without playing is almost like being humiliated.

Episode 13
The Beach Boys - Don't Worry Baby
... One of my favourite B-sides. We've all got favourite B-sides, so why can't I play one of mine?
I wonder if Mark remembers how many great songs he has posted on B-sides, It's a pity that only on B-sides.

if they even made it on an official record, think about all the gems that did not even make it on a B-side.

Duncan Chisholm - Unknown Air - great
Jackson Brown - My Stunning Mystery Companion - very nice.

Christmas. Too many CDs. I return with pleasure to the radio programs of MK. I wonder if on the new album Mark is inspired by some of the songs that he proposed. Episode 10 is over. Tony Joe White "High Sheriff of Calhoun Parrish" - great.
-
I get back to this radio show very often. It's always a pleasure to listen to Mark's voice, the stories and the music.
Merry Christmas to all of you! :wave

Yeah, I wish it would last more than 24 episodes though, I was ready for years... Like Bob Dylan's show, but 24 episodes is just too little. I think I counted it and it's 3 hours of MK talking overall, which is not bad. But could've been better considering he has his own studio, unlike His Bobness!

MKs shows were just awesome weren't they? A real pleasure to sit and listen to! Merry Christmas
