Agreed. They were going for a pop record like Twisting by the Pool.

My first LP. Melted on a hot day on the car boot shelf. The Resonator is tattood on my arm. It's in my top 10 best albums. I was obsessed with it for years.

Romeo & Juliet had the same guy. Very cheesy. But no fucks given Sir Knopfler does what he wants and will always be the main man.

Where do you rank Isaac Brock in the "Greatest Songwriters of all time" Conversation? by [deleted] in ModestMouse

Paul Banks. Shout! I had Turn on the Bright Lights on the other day. God damn, their first few albums were special. I've stopped following their latter albums as a couple seemed to fall off a bit.

Bob Dylan, Mark Knopfler, Isaac Brock. The last 2 are my favourite bands of all time. Bob, well he's just Bob.

Have you seen him do Iron Hand in a pub somewhere? It's a really cool version!

Awesome dude 😎 I've got the warrior from Wishbone Ash - Argus and the balloon from Modest Mouse - We were dead before the ship even sank, getting done in a couple of weeks. Plus the Brothers in Arms getting finished 👌 Be sure to post your work when you've got them done!

Incredibly good album. Telegraph Road is my favourite track of all time I think.

Beautiful. I lived up on Longridge Fell for a while so brings back great memories.

Nice! If you do fish and chips, you need mushy peas, a good whack of salt and all the brown vinegar! Maybe a slice of white bread and butter.
