Additional Info.
Dire Straits leader Mark Knopfler’s intricate introspective fingerpicked guitar stylings make a perfect musical complement to the wistful
tone of Bill Forsyth’s comedy film Local Hero. This album was billed as a Knopfler solo album rather than an original soundtrack
album with the notation ‘music…for the film.
Knopfler brings along Dire Straits associates Alan Clark (keyboards) and John Illsley (bass) plus session aces like saxophonist Mike Brecker
vibes player Mike Mainieri and drummers Steve Jordan and Terry Williams.
The low-key music picks up traces of Scottish music but most of it just sounds like Dire Straits doing instrumentals
especially the recurring theme one of Knopfler’s more memorable melodies.
