Mark Knopfler wrote and performed the soundtrack to Barry Levinson's political satire Wag the Dog, and it is one of his best scores, alternately graceful and rootsy. Seven of the eight tracks are instrumental, with the last being reserved for the agreeably humorous single "Wag the Dog." ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Professional Reviews

Entertainment Weekly (2/13/98, pp.70-71) - "...Knopfler's easygoing folk-country-roots-rock hybrid works strange wonders behind the film and makes for a relaxed listen on its own." - Rating: B
