Format:Audio CD
I have to say at first I wasn't really sure about this album, it's only 24 minutes long and it was written for a film, it might not be that enjoyable to listen to! Boy was I wrong! It may only be 24 minutes but what a 24 minutes! There's only 1 song on the album (Wag The Dog), the rest are instrumental, but I found I was listening to them all over and over again. There's some Chet Atkins in there, some Shadows, and of course there's Knopfler's own unique style. Particular favourites of mine are Working On It and In The Heartland, although they are all first class. Mark Knopfler, I salute you. Everybody else, buy this album right now, you will not be disappointed.

'Wag The Dog' is one of my favourite films, and I watch it regularly. It has all the elements I find appealing - politics, intrigue, skullduggery, impeccable performances from the entire cast. And, of course, this evocative soundtrack by the multi-talented Mr. Knopfler.
Yes, at 24 minutes, it might be a tad short for those who expect a full hour from an audio CD. But what an excellent 24 minutes! If you are into the film, or merely just interested in Mr. Knopfler's work - both with Dire Straits and solo projects, this CD is a must-have. Just set your player onto 'REPEAT' and you'll get your fill!

As this was a film score for an American movie I was unsure what to expect. I should have known better. This is classic Mark Knopfler. From first play it is top quality with Knopfler's unique ear for a catchy tune as usual to the fore. He makes it all sound so easy. If you liked Princess Bride - you will love this.

Gift Purchase
A gift purchase so I can't really review, but it was well received. I believe that it is not up to the usual Mark Knoppler!

Not Bad
Film soundtrack music. Didn't realise this on purchase. Good MK material but not that memorable.

Not the film soundtrack, and short, but still one of Knopfler's best
This is a short but first class collection of eight pieces from the soundtrack of the "Wag the Dog" film (starring Robert De Niro & Dustin Hoffman), all written and performed by... Read more

quality, but not genious
Music of quality, but we don't find the emotion of the other discs of Mark Knopfler or Dire Straits: It's a only a good film music. Don't wait anything else.
