I don't want to be pedantic, (I'm sorry I am) but isn't there a melody here and a whole load of musicians?

I stayed on West Coast of Scotland when Local Hero was shot there-- what a good time. Scenes were shot on Loch Morar where I had a boat, at Arisaig, Lochailort, et al. They hired a friend's beach for the scenes with the old man in the hut-- same beach btw that was used in filming of The Highlander. Lovesd it though when we found out Knopfler had done the theme music.

One of my favorite movies of all time, I first saw it as a young kid on t.v. and enjoyed simpleness of it. Plus the soundtrack is incredible also. That is incredible that they rented your friends beach for the ending scene.

I agree mate, they are a classy band. As for the Newcastle connection, what's it matter? I'm a Cockney, and I lived there as a kid. I love the place, and the people. We're all English, and as we all know, our music is the BEST.
