BARRY COURTER: I’m mostly familiar with Mark Knopfler through his Dire Straits work. This is his seventh solo studio CD. “Get Lucky” is a more personal collection of songs with a very folk feel and plenty of Celtic influences. Fans looking for Dire-style radio hooks may be disappointed, but I like this record.
CASEY PHILLIPS: Considering it doesn't feature a single musical performance from the festival for which it's named, "Taking Woodstock" had an uphill battle to prove it could capture the spirit of Woodstock.
