22. Knopfler's not bad as a musician
See this is where you lose all credibility. You are in such a hurry to "label" old music that it shows your lack of knowledge. Knopfler while granted, made some Pop music, also played jazz, country, bluegrass, blues... He did duets with some of the greatest players who ever lived, he is loved by many musicians, and when I had a conversation with Les Paul about his favorite players, Knopfler was one of his top 5.

So let's see, the man who invented the Electric Guitar and Multi-Track recording thinks Knopfler is one of the 5 best ever, and you call him "not bad" and a few posts down espouse the thing called Lady Gaga. Famous for crappy pop music and a meat dress.

Lady Gaga is "ART" and Knopfler is "not bad"... Yeah.. right.
