I don't think it matters how long an album takes, aslong as the end result is good,

Totally agree, and as its MK the Album will be another perfection!!

Yes, and they have been consistently high quality (IMO). Imagine you were a Billy Joel fan, he hasn't done anything new in nearly 30 years.

Maybe this is hijacking the thread but THERE is an example of a man who knows what his live audience wants and gives it to them.

MK has been packing them in since 1996 without playing a greatest hits set. I for one am happy he didn’t become a “legacy” act, maybe the tourists would disagree, but they seem to come back too…

Au Contraire, I think MKs tours have been amazing, we've been very lucky with the amount he's done....

I would never have wanted MK doing a greatest hits show.   It's always good to look forward to some new material from the current album, even though it may be only two or three songs, which could become favourites in the future.

Let's not forget that Mark has been releasing a new album regularly for 20 years. Every two or three years.

Yeah. I also think he is very quick.
every 2-3 years is a good yield.
Tours in between. Family time and so on

Amazing to think about the body of work The Beatles produced in just 7 years...

I am sure they would record a lot slower nowadays.
For MK and Guy BG is a big playground to spent a lot of time in.
Like going to office every day. Escape from their wifes. LOL.
There weren't that hightech studios in the 60s, so just jump in and record. No time to loose. Studio time was maybe too expensive.

He has done well - juggling life, writing music, recording and then touring...

So much for him being "lazy" I have been waiting since January 2017 for another Mike Oldfield album :( and nothing on the horizon there, so, Mark has been really prolific in his solo career, don't forget all those bonus songs could make another album or 2.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

From a Gilmour perspective 'Rattle that lock' was 2015 & 'On an Island' 14 years before that!!

Yes, Gilmour is working on another solo album, but who knows when that will be released.
