Back in 1983, when I first saw Bill Forsyth's masterpiece Local Hero, I was totally knocked out by the music that swelled up over the closing credits (actually, I was knocked out by almost everything in the movie-- if you haven't seen it, check it out). I ended up buying the soundtrack, which I never do, just for that song. Anyway, here's a live version of the theme performed by its composer, Mark Knopfler.

Well, John, I must say that this music is wonderful. I remember how much I enjoyed the movie, but I have no recollection of the music. But after listening to this video I can certainly understand why the music moved you. Thanks for sharing. You keep it up, I might eventually become reconciled to your music. Mom
