The Mark Knopfler discography consists of recordings by British singer-songwriter and guitarist Mark Knopfler, not including his work with Dire Straits. Knopfler began recording apart from Dire Straits in 1983, when he released his first soundtrack album Local Hero. That same year he produced his first album, Infidels for Bob Dylan. Between 1983 and 2016, Knopfler composed and released nine soundtrack albums, the last of which was with Evelyn Glennie.

After he quietly disbanded Dire Straits in 1995, Knopfler released his first solo album Golden Heart in 1996. In total, he has released ten studio albums, two collaborative studio albums with Chet Atkins and Emmylou Harris, and twenty-two singles. In addition, Knopfler has also produced four additional albums for other artists, including Land of Dreams in 1988 for Randy Newman, and has appeared on many albums by other artists, providing guitar tracks or guest appearance vocals.

Production and session work

as producer

  • Infidels (1983) by Bob Dylan. Although Knopfler disowned the reworked version of the album as released,[39] his production is still noticeable. Left off the album, but later released on The Bootleg Series, is the critically acclaimed "Blind Willie McTell", featuring only Dylan, singing and playing piano, accompanied by Knopfler on acoustic guitar.
  • Knife (1984) by Aztec Camera. This Scottish indie/new wave band was mostly a vehicle for the work of Roddy Frame, much as Dire Straits only ever recorded Mark Knopfler compositions.
  • Miracle (1987) by Willy DeVille. The album was dedicated to Knopfler and his wife "for their support which was nothing short of a Miracle in a time of Dire Straits." The album ends with the ballad "Storybook Love", the theme from The Princess Bride.
  • Land of Dreams (1988) by Randy Newman. Knopfler produced seven of the album's twelve tracks. The album includes the single "It's Money that Matters", which revisits the Dire Straits song "Money for Nothing".
  • The Sailor's Revenge (2012) by Bap Kennedy was recorded at British Grove Studios in 2011.
