New Knopfler/Harris Effort

New Knopfler/Harris Effort
Originally uploaded by banj.

Here's one from the genius of Mark Knopfler and Emmylou. It entered the Billboard 200 at number 17, that beat Mark's previous high from October of 2002 with "The Ragpicker's Dream." This is the 27th charter for Emmylou with only "Trio" peaking higher at number 6 in 1987.

"6th on the NYC scales...after release 3 weeks ago. Emmylou and Dire Straits' Mark Knopfler. He's one the world's preeminent guitarist, elite, best of the best; as this album shows. Pick it up, it's worth it. Oh yes, it's called "All the Roadrunning."
