Agree Knopfler's been in a rut from what I can tell. Sailing To Philadelphia was his last really good album. ALways a great guitarist though. That alone can be worth the cost of admission.
I agree 100% with Ptmconsulting!! Just watched about 10 min of newer stuff on youtube and was very bored.Even when he played ,Sultans of Swing,,he was talking about his guitar playing during the song, ,,"I used to play this faster " I was thinking"Yeah ,and you used to play it with some balls" Les Paul played with more passion and energy and he was much older!
Chet Atkins is one of Knopflers role models. That might explain his laid back demeanor.

BTW, I could listen to any CHet Atkins all day anytime. Not too many artists out there I could say that about.
