Singer, songwriter and guitarist Joan Armatrading
talks to leading guitarists about their music and guitar technique on the BBC
Radio 4 programme Joan Armatrading's Favourite Guitarists. There were
five episodes in which Joan talks to Mark Knopfler, Bonnie Raitt, John Williams,
Russell Lissack and Bert Jansch. This CD features the first episode in which
Joan talks to Mark Knopfler, lead guitarist of Dire Straits. Knopfler is
considered by many to be the most respected intricate 'fingerstyle' guitarist of
the modern rock era. He brought his old Gibson and National steel guitar to the
studio. Very nice interview and some fine licks. Great sound quality, total
playing time is about 15 minutes.
