Mark Knopfler - Down The Road Wherever, just getting to know this after purchasing last week.Did anybody else buy the 16 track edition? ,blimey its 78 minutes long!.

I'm disappointed there is no 24-bit download release yet,  I'm prepared to wait & see (hope).  But yes I will be getting the 16 track

Just listening to this ripped cd  from the NAS I think for the 4th time and I'll be surprised  if the HiRes version sounds any better. If it does I'll buy it. The cymbals on track four just sound so real. And the piano and sax on track five are just sublime.
