5.0 out of 5 stars Not what you would expect from Mark Knopfler., 25 Oct 2001
By A Customer
A shot at Glory - A Mark Knopfler soundtrack.

A Shot at Glory is a film about a Scottish football team and stars Ally McCoist. Mark Knopfler has written the soundtrack.
Make no mistake; this is not your usual Mark Knopfler stuff. Traditional Scottish bagpipes, fiddles and whistles take up most of the CD. Knopfler only occasionally contributes his guitar and singing. It's more Runrig than Dire Straits. Nevertheless, it is very good. Dire Straits fans may not get what they were expecting but any fans of Celtic folk music will love it.
Scottish folk music AND Mark Knopfler - what a good idea!
Footballers in films - it'll never catch on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the best soundtrack I have ever heard, 18 Mar 2002
By G. Cumella (Warwickshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
No matter what the album, you can bet that if it's Knopfler, it's going to be good and this album is no exception! There is a good mix of rock guitar as well as a very relaxing blend of celtic/scottish sounding music.If you are used to hearing Knopfler in music than Dire Straits or Golden Heart then I would highly recommend this!

5.0 out of 5 stars Highland Glory, 14 Jun 2002
By Terry Smith (Burntwood England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This is a typical Mark Knopfler soundtrack. Some of the tracks have the feel of Local Hero and to a lesser extent, Cal. Other tracks could have fitted very easily onto the Flying to Philadelphia CD. With the storyline of the film being very obviously Scottish, it should not come as too much of a surprise to find tracks influenced by traditional Highland jigs and reels. Mark Knopfler fans should have no hesitation in buying this CD.
