Mark Knopfler Discussion Forum / Re: David Knopfler interview Oct 2020: Mark and I 'get on alright'

With David?
If so why?
It's great if they are now acting like "proper" brothers but I'd prefer songs with better musicians than David.
MK stands for quality so no dropping of standards for any final album(s).
No need to record anything, this "trouble" eliminates itself just by inviting David to play on one song on one live show, Mark could've done it a million times at this point, but preferred not to do so. Artists always do it, always invites people to play, even Mark — Joe Brown, Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, etc. The other question is, could you imagine this really happening? I don't think so, because that looks too much like a Dire Straits reunion.
