      Little Feet

      Allman Brothers live at the Fillmore
      Pink Floyd
      Pulse
      And Alchemy.
      The GOATS of live recordings, imo.

    The tears are an appreciation of Mark Knopfler, his sublime guitar playing and music... a gift from God for us to enjoy, my life has been richer for having Dire Straits songs a part of it
    A big thanks to all the outstanding musicians who have played and contributed to this great band!!

      This played on the radio (studio version) as a group of friends and I drove to St. George Island, Florida in 1979. When it finished we stopped dancing in the car and someone said, who the F is this band ? Heard it play on our huge radio on the beach that week and our little rented bungalow. Bought the album when I got home.
      Oh to be 22 again. My departed dad used to say....Youth is so wasted on the young. We had the world at our feet.
      I still get together with these friends on the beach. We travel in from all over
      I love this version ❣️
      And now we can play it with a few taps on a device.

    I haven't told this to any of the other 'reactors' to this fine tune, but: The best explanation for the lyrics to "Sultans of Swing", is that it is basically a song about being a musician. It is fantastic that it 'connects' with so many people.

      There is a version from 1996 with the original members of his band that he still records with that is not far off. I think it is from "An Evening With Mark Knopfler", a little bluesier phrasing both vocally and with his guitar but absolutely comparable. Most of his popular songs have at least as many iterations as he has had concert tours which is probably to be expected over the course of 4 decades and counting.

      Yes, and you can see it in their faces (especially Marks'). When you're playing in a band up on stage and you feel everything is going perfectly and the crowd is going crazy, it's one of the greatest adrenalin rushes known to man. Marl Knopfler is one of the greatest male singer/songwriter performers over the last 50 years, and Dire Straits are absolute legends here in the UK and around the world. Other absolutely classic Dire Straits tracks include 'Rome & Juliet' and 'Brothers In Arms' and 'Telegraph Road'
