Listening to a new Mark Knopfler album is for me as close as I get to having a religious ritual in my life. I think so much of the man's writing abilities, his guitar skills, his musical taste, his compassion as a songwriter, and above all his humility as a human being that whenever a new album comes out I lock myself in my room and try to listen to the entire thing from start to finish, without interruption. And yet, in all of the years and for all of the albums for which I have performed this ritual, I have never been able to make it all the way through. Not once. I set out with that as my goal, but there is always one song that stops me in my tracks and makes me play it over once or more times before I can move on to the next songs. On this album, that song is "Wherever I Go," a lovely duet with Ruth Moody of the Wailin' Jennys. It demanded to be heard five whole times before it would allow me to move to the second CD of songs.
