"This single consist of four songs: "What It Is", "Long Highway", "Camerado" è "Let's See You". I think that "Camerado" is one of the best things Mark have written last 10 years. Anyone who buys this CD expecting the typical dire strats sound will be disappointed. This single sounds somewhere between Nashville, New Orleans and the Cambridge Folk Festival with Blues and Folk songs featuring. Knopflers best single since Dire Straits by a long way."

A Must For Any Knopfler Fan

"Have always looked for CD singles from MK or DS, they often have great songs that were left off the original release. This CD is no exception, "Long Highway" is as good as anything on the "Sailing To Philly" CD, and worth the price of this CD alone. It has a great guitar solo that sounds a bit like the solo in "Are We In Trouble Now" from Golden Heart but with perhaps more of a Dire Straits feel."Let's See You" is more of a pop style MK song and very nice, "Camerado" is set in the upbeat style of "Gravy Train" that was on a CD single taped durring the "Golden Heart" sessions. It's also on a MK video taped live with many of the musicians that took part in the "Golden Heart" recordings. This CD single finishes the whole package of "Sailing To Pilly" and a great package it is."
