Информация о артисте
Сэр Марк Фро́йдер Но́пфлер (англ. Mark Freuder Knopfler, род. 12 августа 1949, Глазго, Шотландия) — британский рок-музыкант, певец и композитор, один из сооснователей группы Dire Straits. Его вокал лучше всего описывается немецким термином Sprechgesang — не совсем пение, но и не разговор. Он использует гитару так, как будто она является его вторым «голосом».
Наибольшую популярность приобрёл в качестве автора песен, соло-гитариста и вокалиста группы Dire Straits, а сейчас ведёт сольную карьеру и выступает с другими проектами (например The Notting Hillbillies). Работал с множеством артистов, включая Боба Дилана, Эрика Клэптона, Стинга, Чета Эткинса (альбом Neck & Neck является самой крупной их совместной работой). Продюсировал альбомы очень многих музыкантов, среди которых Тина Тёрнер, Крис Ри, Боб Дилан, Эмиллу Харрис. Написал музыку к таким фильмам, как Local Hero, The Princess Bride, Call, Metroland, Last Exit to Brooklyn и Wag the Dog.
В 2003 году артист попал в автомобильную аварию, и отменил турне поддержки альбома "The Ragpicker’s Dream" (2002), но через год сумел вернуться на сцену. Нопфлер — один из лучших гитаристов, предпочитающих пальцевую технику звукоизвлечения.
Он занял 27 позицию в списке 100 величайших гитаристов всех времён по версии журнала Роллинг Стоун.
В 2009 году к своему 60-летию Нопфлер выпустил альбом "Get Lucky" ("Лови удачу"). Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.

Mark Freuder Knopfler, OBE (born August 12, 1949, Glasgow, Scotland) is a guitarist, singer, and songwriter. Although best-known as the lead guitarist and vocalist for the band Dire Straits (1977 - 1995), Mark has also made albums as a solo performer and played in other bands (such as the Notting Hillbillies). He has also performed on work by other artists, such as Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton and Chet Atkins, and produced albums for artists such as Tina Turner, Randy Newman, and (again) Bob Dylan. In addition, he has scored the music to several films, including Local Hero, The Princess Bride, Comfort and Joy, Cal, Last Exit to Brooklyn and Wag the Dog.
After Knopfler disbanded Dire Straits in 1995, he launched straight into a solo career with 'Golden Heart' (1996) - a mixture of his various music stylings that appeared throughout Dire Straits' career.
'Sailing to Philadelphia' (2000) was the breakthrough album for his solo career. With stars such as James Taylor and Van Morrison, 'Sailing to Philadelphia' was one of his most successful albums to date.
His next album 'The Ragpicker's Dream' (2002) saw Knopfler move to the 'story telling theme'. The single 'Why Aye Man' was used as the theme tune for the third series of 'Auf Wiedersehen, Pet' in 2002.
His next album 'Shangri-La' was released in 2004 with a tour proceeding in 2005. 'Shangri-La' continued the idea of storytelling with each song having a different story (e.g. Boom, Like That is referring to the story of Ray Kroc and McDonalds). A motorcycle accident in 2005 meant the tour was postponed but was continued later that year.
2006 saw the release of 'All the Roadrunning' - a collaboration album with Emmylou Harris. This contains a mixture of rock and folk-styled music, mostly written by Knopfler. A tour followed the release of the album.
'Kill To Get Crimson', another folk-rock-bluesy record was released in autumn of 2007,
with a tour in 2008.
'Get Lucky' album released in September 2009, with a tour planned for North America and Europe commencing in the spring of 2010.
In 2011, Mark toured with Bob Dylan on Dylan's recent European leg of his "Never Ending Tour".
'Privateering' album, the first studio double-album of Knopfler's 35-year career as a recording artist, was released on the 3rd September of 2012. An European tour was planned for the summer of 2013.
Knopfler was named #27 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time".
