"Shangri-La, Mark KnopflerÂ’s fourth solo release and his first since breaking
his collarbone, shoulder and seven ribs in a motorcycle crash in March 2003,
finds the eternally laid back Dire Straits front man in familiar territoryÂ…Knopfler
has more or less abandoned the British-folk and Celtic-influenced pop that began
to surface on his previous two recordings, opting instead for a full-blown, yet
quiet and considerate collection of country-folk ballads and bluesy, mid-tempo
dirges that revel in their uncharacteristic sparsenessÂ…lovers of Chet Atkins,
Gordon Lightfoot and J.J. Cale, as well as late-night poker players and early
risers with an acerbic streak will find much to love here." - All Music Guide
