On June 28, 2006, the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles bore witness to a remarkable musical collaboration as Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris took the stage during their “All the Roadrunning” tour. This performance was immortalized in the concert film Real Live Roadrunning, released on November 14, 2006, capturing the duo’s synergy and the evening’s emotive atmosphere.
A highlight of the concert was their rendition of “Our Shangri-La,” a song that encapsulates themes of longing and the pursuit of an idyllic place. Knopfler’s intricate guitar work paired seamlessly with Harris’s ethereal vocals, creating a poignant and resonant performance that stood out in the evening’s setlist.
The Real Live Roadrunning album and DVD not only feature this standout track but also include a blend of songs from their collaborative album All the Roadrunning, as well as selections from Knopfler’s tenure with Dire Straits and Harris’s illustrious solo career. The concert film offers viewers a comprehensive look at the artists’ musical versatility and the depth of their collaboration.
