Title: Big Letdown
Review: I really didn't pay much attention to Knopfler between his Dire Straits heyday and the 21st century. But I bought "Ragpicker's Dream" on a lark two years ago, and thought it was fabulous. There were four or five instantly memorable songs that just jumped off the CD. Sorry I can't say the same for this one. The pacing is slow, the writing is mediocre, and the guitar work doesn't make you go "wow." Maybe Mark should wait a little longer than two years for the next album. This one is likely headed for oblivion.
