listing Touring Knopfler supported the release of Golden Heart with the Golden Heart Tour of Europe, which started on 24 April 1996 in Galway, Ireland, and included 84 concerts in 66 cities, ending in Antibes, France, on 4 August 1996. The tour lineup included Mark Knopfler (guitar, vocals), Guy Fletcher (keyboards), Richard Bennett (guitar), Glenn Worf (bass), Chad Cromwell (drums) and Jim Cox (keyboards). This initial touring group later became known to Knopfler fans as the 96-ers. A preview performance with an expanded lineup of players was given on 15 April 1996 at the BBC Building in London. This show was recorded and later released on video as A Night in London. Critical reception In his review for AllMusic, William Ruhlmann gave the album three out of five stars, finding that despite Knopfler's trademark guitar work and sardonic lyrics, there was "little on the album that was new or striking, and Knopfler seemed to fall back on familiar guitar techniques while intoning often obscure lyrics. Ruhlmann set aside any reference to the musical effect of Knopfler's eclectic and newly introduced acoustic bass, string arrangements or traditional Irish accompaniments and concluded: Track listing Personnel Music Mark Knopfler – guitar, vocals Richard Bennett – acoustic guitar (1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 11, 12), guitar (5, 6) tiplé (10) Sonny Landreth – National steel guitar (10), backing vocals (10) Don Potter – acoustic guitar (14) Paul Franklin – pedal steel guitar (1, 9, 11, 12, 14) Derek Bell – Irish harp (1) Paul Brady – whistle (1, 7, 13) Seán Keane – violin (1, 7, 13) Dónal Lunny – bouzouki (1, 7, 13) Máirtín O'Connor – accordion (1, 7, 13) Liam O'Flynn – uilleann pipes (7, 13) Steve Conn – accordion (10) Jo-El Sonnier – accordion (8) Michael Doucet – fiddle (10) Matt Rollings – piano (1, 5, 11) Barry Beckett – piano (9, 12) Hargus "Pig" Robbins – piano (14) Bill Cuomo – Hammond organ (6) Guy Fletcher – keyboards (3, 4, 8, 12), backing vocals (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8) Steve Nathan – Hammond organ (1, 2, 8, 9, 12, 14), keyboards (3, 5, 9, 11, 14) Paul Moore – bass guitar (13), string bass (7) Michael Rhodes – bass guitar (1, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14) Glenn Worf – bass guitar (2, 3, 6), string bass (4, 8) Eddie Bayers – drums (1, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12,
