Mark Knopfler & Rod Clements

1974 Newport Mount Rag

Mark Knopfler, more famous for his later work with Dire Straits, turned up at Rod's house in Finchley one time during the spring of 1974, and a homemade version of Mark's Newport Mount Rag, done on Rod's 'state-of-the art Pifco cassette recorder', was the result. The recording, together with further details in the sleeve notes, is available on BT3.
