This is a rare case where I really prefer a live performance to the studio version. One of the best.
Come on… every songs from MK or Dire Straits are better live than studio cuz Mark’s mastery in live performance and never play the same version per tour.
Terry Williams deserves credit at the drums. His performance is otherworldly in Alchemy.
It was a revelation to me, watching him play..
Agreed Jose 💯
Jose Manuel Pla.... He's like a machine. They all are.
This is Rock Perfection.
Agreed. That drumming was amazing.
Totally agree :-)
It's possibly the greatest live performance of all-time!! The drummer is amazing, and the lead singer, Mark Knopfler, is one of the top 5 greatest guitarists of all-time!! It's the shortest 10 minutes you'll ever experience in your life!
One of the absolute best live performances ever.
The whole of Alchemy is a musical masterpiece only others can imitate👍👌
Was just out driving with my 17 year old son in his new car. This song was the third on his playlist. Best parenting moments.
Yep!! 💖💖💖💖👍
You nailed it! 👍👍👍💖
Sounds like he’s deserving of that car, then, lol! 👍
What were the first two songs on his playlist?
emanon fox Haha, I actually thought I should have posted that too.
#1 Shooting Star - Bad Company
#2 Baby Blue - Badfinger
I drove him around for the first sixteen years listening to my music. Success lol
The drum work on this live performance is simply epic
I love how @ 3:40 of this video, you can see Mark laughing at how his drummer is going off. "Okay, so it's going to be one of those performances!"
Fact!
@@jackkomorowski2722 Agreed,all the instruments were in perfect alignment and not a key out of place or mistimed in the whole 10 plus minutes.
that drummer is on fire!
Welsh boy on the drums... Terry Williams from Swansea. What a drummer!
If anyone is better than Mark, I don't know who that is. His vocals are iconic as well, smiling making it look so easy. The drummer is from a different galaxy~~~
Great reaction.... I really appreciate watching someone who loves and appreciates great music.
Rory Gallagher, I believe influenced Mark a lot.
Mark = Sensei of the Frets.
This is a lesson in dynamics 101. It’s a 12 minute song but you never lose interest because they incorporate so many slower parts to compliment the ultimate crescendo at the end. Genius
Someone once asked Prince " how does it feel to be the greatest guitarist"? Prince replied - " I don't know ..ask Mark Knopfler " prince was way underrated too -
This story is attributed to so many guitar players..SRV, Clapton, Prince. It's an urban myth.
mr. jinks And Jimmy Page, and Alex Lifeson, and SRV...
@@sarahzentexas And Buck Dharma too from BOC only Jimmy Page was supposedly asked the question. People love their guitar players don't they!
@@rudolfo963 or songwriters...
I am so sick and tired of this quote. It is simply a false and fake quote. Always other artists naming other arists. Usually Jimi Hendrix saying that about Terry Kath or Rory Gallagher. It never happened. What's next?? Hey Elvis.........? I don't know, ask Johnny Cash. Stop this bullshit once and for all.
Another thing about Knopfler… this was during an era when most guitar virtuosi played with a lot of distortion. Mark really stood out by playing with that glassy clean tone.
so true and that's why I like him so much, he didn't "hide" behind distorsion like some others, every small mistake is plane to see and hear, not that he made any lol
Yes! Great use of the 'number 4' pickup position of his Fender Strat. Then the sweet tone is wrapped up in some glorious reverb.
EdMan57 Armin .S Also, rock guitarists generally played like their guitars had stickers on them reading “WARNING: this device will explode if used to play anything other than a pentatonic scale.” But Knopfler was all over the majors, minors, and modes. A real musician.
@@EdMan57 For the pedants, he's not playing a Fender Strat in this clip. It's a Schecter Dream Machine with custom pickups and switching. Though he is on the middle-bridge position.
@@lapelcelery42 ,thanks for in added info. Just doing some research on his guitar history and noticed his guitar tweaking during his early Dire Straits career. Like replacing the rosewood board neck with a maple board Schecter neck on his red '62 Strat. Lots of Schecter Strat type guitars in early/mid '80's,then a period of Pensa-Suhr Customs and Les Pauls in the late '80's. No matter what he played,he always sounded wonderful.
Legend has it that Mark Knofler’s fingers have their own brains
That explains it! And he can still play.
😂😂
I worked this show at the hammersmith odeon,London (right at the front) and even us hard-bitten security guys were applauding.
Outstanding.
I would honestly give my right bollock to go back and be there!
This live version is a PRESENT FOR LIFE.
1986 saw them live as a 18yr old. Concert went for 3 hours without them leaving the stage, ticket cost 25 dollars front row centre stage right in front of Mark, it was one of the most amazing concerts ever. Mark still doing his solo stuff and touring in his 70’s now
I remember seeing them back a little earlier in about 81 maybe. 12 miles from my hometown in a small 1200 seat venue, around the time Making Movies was released. I didn't know a great deal about them at the time and never really appreciated the fact I was only about 8 rows back from the front.
He played at the Florida venue, Maxwell King Center in Melbourne Oct. 2015... I didn't get to see him because as soon as it was announced, it sold out!
Send me more details please, starting to work on my time machine rn. 😂
That guitar solo, still blows my mind all these years later.
Probably the greatest ever live performance, absolutely phenomenal
The drummer is the great Terry Williams. He was just that good.
a beast !!
Awesome Terry great great drummer like it .
Mark Knopfler's guitar playing is just as unique and recognizable as his voice.
Mark doesn't play guitar; he has a conversation with it.
@@peterbrazukas7771 I stand corrected.
That's right.
But two lead singer in dIRE sTRAITS : Mark Knopfler's guitar & Mark Knopfler.
He's a genius. I love Brothers in Arms and Romeo and Juliet.
Romeo and Juliet it the best!!! I also love the Indigo Girls' version.
Water of love !👍
Wow!
You have to listen Tunnel of love. You wont regret
Telegraph Road 😍
The sad thing is, we won't ever see this type of concert ever again, for multiple reasons. I am so glad I grew up in the era of Stadium Rock.
Here in Brazil we always had and always will have concert on stadiums. Its like a tradition. Hahahaha
Never say 'never' ;)
Greta Van Fleet has a song called edge of darkness that is just like a 5 minute improvved solo. Before you think they are heavy metal, they would be charting in the 70s like zeppelin kind of music. Give it a listen
Today everything is over-commercialized without much substance.
I saw Springsteen on a stadium tour in the UK just 9 years ago
Sings like Dylan , rocks like Springsteen and plays like no one else.
P.S. Knofler has some great stuff with Chet Atkins and also with Emmylou Harris.
🙂.. and with Sting and Eric Clapton too !
I so love All the Roadrunning! One of the greatest collabos of the last 20 years ❤
If you need someone to rock the place up and down, have him play guitar for you.
Yes he turned a bit countryish last 10 years ago or so,i liked his older stuff much better
Yeah he does sound like Dylan never thought of that before wow
"Alchemy" will forever rank as one of the best ten or so live performances in the history of rock 'n roll. Subtle, smooth and intense at the same time. A rollercoaster of storytelling and craftsmanship. A style of their own.
Absolutely!!
First watched the concert when I was 15.
Introduced the album to my son when he was 15.
It’s an all time favorite!
Also, not a single studio overdub on the entire album. Very few live albums can make that claim.
Gotta appreciate when the drumstick just disappear in a blur! That there is Terry Williams.
Best version of the best song, never tired of hearing
When you talk about classic rock today, you can't say a sentence without having Dire Straits in it. One of the greatest rock n roll 👌 bands ever.🎙🎸🎤🎸
When you ask people what their favourite song of all time is, a lot people struggle to choose one. Not me - the Alchemy Live version of Sultan's of Swing is the clear stand out. It's so good to watch someone else experience the joy of listening to and watching this performance for for first time. The first half hooks you in and then the final solo just blows you away. Truly a spine-tingling performance.
Terry Williams did a great job on the drums in this one. He impressed Mark with that rim shot at 9:09 by his reaction at 9:12. This is the best version and I have watched this many times. Thanks for playing.
No one else can make a guitar sound like that. No one.
You are absolutely correct sir 😎👍🏼
Having lived in the Deep South of the U.S. for 20 of the last 30 years of my life I have received some involuntary input to country music. Mark IS the Master of the Pickers. I finally heard it on the 1000th time I have "experienced" this performance. I heard his notes ringing out almost exactly like some very old school blues and country banjo pickers. While those old performances were amazing in their own right, they didn't have those other-worldly drums and keyboards behind them like Mark dId in this video. I am even mire amazed he could play his guitar cleaner and faster than those guys picking on their banjo's (designed to be played like that) BRAVO Mr. Knopfler...
@@PAONARKOTIKO 🤣
@@PAONARKOTIKO No, no one can do a better job "covering" someone else's music. You may like this other version better, but it is not done better...
I was saying the same. What is it??
Genius is not enough. Brilliant, intelligent lyrics and masterful guitar work. Very, very underrated band.
Mark Knopfler the lead guitarist/singer is a MASTER guitar player...one of the best! Great all around band...tight!
Oh yes indeed. One of tne most incredible live performances ever. Terry Williams is supernatural on those drums.
This is like watching the live gold medal round at some sport in the Olympics. I don’t think it gets any better than this. They are just having so much fun exploring their own talent.
Alchemy must be one of the greatest live albums of modern times
Omg that was unbelievably good. They were taking it to another level
I am absolutely EXHAUSTED just from WATCHING the drummer!!! No wonder there are so few overweight drummers!
I used to be a drummer, now I'm overweight instead!
Best live performance by a band ever. They played 16 consecutive nights at the Sydney Entertainment Centre.
Honestly? My absolute favorite song. Mark Knopfler is a brilliant guitarist!
Every time i watch this it makes time stand still.
I was at that gig. Dire Straights smoke live. It’s the best live performance I have ever seen 😀😀
This track is possibly the greatest live rock performance ever recorded. The whole of Alchemy Live is a masterpiece.
OMG Yes please!! Please play more Dire Straits!!! They were amazing live. I saw them in Sydney back in the day. Superb. 💖💖💖💖👍👍👍
Turd Ferguson Yep! Another one of my all-time faves. See? Again we’re simpatico! 😎👍🏻 Probably went to almost all the same concerts, just on different continents. ‘Romeo and Juliet’ and ‘Telegraph Road’ are the best in concert!
Really Smart Yeah, I remember you saying. I don’t remember, and the ticket doesn’t say. I saw SRV at the Opera House, remember? We talked about this. Really Forgetful? 😂💖
Sherlock Hemlock Mate! We’ve so gotta be related! I hope JV reacts to more DS. BRING IT ON!!! 💖💖💖💖👍
Mark Knopfler is the best guitar player ever, if you ask me. I am so glad I have been hearing my father listening to the Dire Straits on maximum volume during the eighties so many times in my youth. Also I am glad it didn't make me deaf, so I can stil enjoy listening to their timeless music now in the year 2020.
SFCANK1981 😂😂😂 Clearly your Dad’s hecka cool! 😎😎😎
Dire Straits is one of these bands who never disappointed me in Live -- both studio and live versions are great in their own rights.
The great thing about Jayvee reactions is the pure joy he brings to a reaction.
This performance is, IMHO, the absolute best version of this song.
Notice how closely the others watch Knopfler, picking up on his subtle cues and working together.
That's musicianship.
Knopfler also wrote Private Dancer for Tina Turner, a really amazing song.
The Best! Mark is always so cool and calm even when rocking out. So talented.
Terry went beast mode on this one :-)
I'm a 70 yr.old hippy and lovin' seeing you young bucks enjoying our world changing music. Mark Knopler was not only a stone cold music genius and a extraordinary guitar player who entrances everyone but also a wonderful human being.By the way love me some of the true tap from the new geniuses.
Me too!!!! Old hippy gal here,im 65......
I truly believe this was probably the greatest live performance of all time.
The lyric "As The Time Bell Rings." refers to when all English "Pubs" would ring a bell(usually 22.50 pm)and
after it rang, you had 10 minutes to order any further drinks and then they would take no further orders after 23.00 pm.
Then you had a further 15 minutes to finish your drinks before you had to leave the "Pub" and go home.
'Time, gentlemen please'
@@dougoneill7266 "Last Orders."
@@walshaw2 'Have you no home's to go to!?'
walshaw when everybody rushes to the bar for a round of doubles
Why would he be nessecarily be referring to english pubs. He was born in Glasgow Scotland.
That whole Alchemy album is outstanding.
I remember when this song was released in 1978. I heard it on the radio and was immediately a fan. Punk, rock, pop, disco, funk, prog rock were prevalent styles but it seemed like no one was doing basic rock n’ roll. Then Dire Straits came along!
This is my favorite song performance live ever. I get my invisible drums and guitar and just go for it!
I love when Mark smiles as if to say, Listen to this!
I have the privilege of being born in the 50’s. My parents loved the music of the 50’s and I grew up during the 60’s and 70’s listening to the best music ever. Not to mention all the great bands since then.
Don’t forget the 80’s.
I want to give much love to the 80s and the good music
¡The DRUMER !!!!!Wauuuuauu
The people in the audience were so blessed to experience this. What a memory to call on.
This was recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon in 1983. My brother was in the audience and said they blew the roof off that night.
Mark Knopfler allowed Terry Williams to let it rip on the drums because it was the first time his parents saw him play live and Knopfler went for it with the extended guitar solo. If you watch carefully you`ll see them laughing at each other.
Always loved this song, the live version took it to a whole other level!
Terry Williams on drums and Mark Knopfler on lead guitar are both f***ing KILLING it here.
Haha, gr8 seeing the drummer doing his thing, he's my mates father, i remember going on a private plane from Swansea to Edinburgh when i was younger with him and his family to watch him in a gig, gr8 memories.
One of my all time favourite live performances. So glad you watched it🤗
When you were talking about how amazing this version is, I could think is "Just wait". Still get goosebumps decades later, after hearing it a thousand times.
I've been hearing this for 25 years, but never heard this live version. Thanks so much for bringing it.
Lead guitarist, Mark Knopfler, was a big fan of the Nashville picking style of guitar playing made famous by performers like his idol, Chet Atkins.
If you've never heard Chet, you should check out his song, I Still Write Your Name In the Snow. I'm sure it'll bring a smile to your face. 😁
Yep & Chet was an amazing player!
They did shows together a few years before Chet's death. ruclips.net/video/5wTVLIZaxMk/видео.html
Lots of boys are still named Chet in Tennessee !
Yep Chet Atkins mixed in with JJ Cale influences and you got a new irresistible sound.
@@celt67 I actually had the cassette they made together when I was a kid. I loved it, and at the time, I had no idea who Mark was. Was it called Yackity Axe?
That was incredibly great! I never saw that live performance before.
Look up 'Telegraph Road' and 'Tunnel Of Love' from Alchemy Live. The guitar solos will blow you away.
Knopfler plays a guitar just like ringin a bell
--Chuck Berry
I remember driving to high school in the morning listening to this song. All I can say is we had some damn good music back in the 70's. I need a time machine to take me back for a do over.
ALOT OF GREAT MUSIC IN THE 70s
Sultans of Swing live in this album is just amazing!! One of the best guitar performances ever. Mark is on fire!
Never have I seen one person who doesnt have a smile on his or her face after hearing this song
Being in a Dire straight Live concert is like being in heaven. So much energy.
Mark is a wonderful guitarist and the rest of the band are wonderful too, I so enjoy listening to them live as the reactions of the audience shows how much they are enjoying themselves. He stands there looking around then looking down it amazes me and that guitar sings so beautifully. I've been a fan since I first heard them on the radio, a long time ago now. Your reactions to this were fantastic sweetheart, you were right they are phenomenal. Everytime I watch them live I have to watch them in concert, and the other songs you mention are also great. God bless you all, take care and stay safe please everyone love hugs and peace to you all Mary-Ellen UK
Mary-Ellen! Sending love gurl!!! 💖💖💖☮️
@@turdferguson400 sending love back to you sweetheart lol. I've just taken my last meds so I shall be sleeping soon, these antidepressants help me to sleep and keep depression at bay lol. Take care please and God bless you my friend Mary-Ellen
Ok, I like this live version even more than the studio one 😍
Great performance."Sultans of Swing," was the first song from Dire Straits,most listeners heard on the radio.
Damn it feels good seeing many people react to this Sultans live, one of the best songs and best performances in the history of music. Many (young) people are finding Dire and being touched by it.
Tunnel of love - dire straits. Best melodic guitar solo ever.
YES PLSS 🙏🏽
tunnel of love would straight up send an arrow thru your heart n your soul🤧
That just sends me to another place that no song comes near to doing.
That guitar
Absolutely! Number 1.
You aren't kidding! I've been hearing this song all my life, and this is the first time I've experienced the live version. They *seriously* went all out, it's amazing!
Absolutely EPIC performance.
Never heard this version love the studio version. The amount of control, every part of this song is different to the rest of the song, the skill in syncroniation with that perfectly timed group volume drop. To change volume without losing timing is the hardest thing for any musician
If one is to watch one Dire Straits video, this is it. I'm sixty-nine and found it two years ago. Amazing. Great post.
I could listen to Sultans of Swing all day long! Loved watching you really enjoy this live version. I wore this cassette out in my car tooling around D.C. circa 1984-85 along with Phil Collins' No Jacket Required and Tina Turner's Private Dancer! Good times!
Tina Turner's Private Dancer, the title track of which was of course written by Mark Knopfler and featured the rest of Dire Straits playing on it with Jeff Beck taking Mark's place on lead guitar and contributing what Mark once described as the 'second worst guitar solo of all time'! To this day I still wonder why Mark didn't play on the track and how he might have elevated it even further.
“Mark Knopfler has an extraordinary ability to make a Schecter Custom Stratocaster hoot and sing like angels on a Saturday night, exhausted from being good all week and needing a stiff drink.”
― Douglas Adams, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish
Insane when this was first released and still insane today!!
1978 RELEASED ,,
This band is major! They know how to jam !!! 👆🏻
Hey gurl!! 💖
Really Smart so awesome, Sultans of swing is my favorite of theirs but they are a great group ♥️
Turd Ferguson hey babe, I love how you got Jay to say you were his favorite Turd ! I always want to laugh though when we just say Turd without the Ferguson part for those who don’t know what we’re referring too! Hahaha! 💖
Really Smart hey👋🏻, is it me? Am I your girl Lol! I’m not gay, have no issues whatsoever with people who are but if I have to pick a woman Turd is my no. 1 stunner Hahaha! Yep, we’re already talking about living together 🤣😂🤣
Really Smart hence the name really smart, I don’t know... Turd Ferguson might get ya for this. Anyway you sound too intelligent for me Lol!
Everything Mark Knopfler does is magic, his 'Local Hero' album should be heard by all.
I'm glad you reviewed this live version. Has to be one of the greatest live guitar solos of all time & agree with you 100%, this is vastly superior to the studio version.
One of the top 10 epic live guitar performances ever.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song and especially this version. Mark Knopfler is my favorite guitarist of all time! This makes my heart more than happy. So glad you appreciate it.
This was their first hit and kinda became their signature song. I've loved this song since the first time I ever heard it! Tells a really cool story. Dire Straits were always excellent at bringing their studio songs to life on stage, and Alchemy is one of my all-time favorite live albums. Although Mark Knopfler has a great sound as a solo artist, both live and in the studio, I still really miss this group. A Dire Straits reunion would make my whole year!
Thankful you let it play through without stopping it every 5 seconds... Excellent!
Mark and Terry were on absolute, without a doubt FIRE🔥🔥 And yet made it look completely effortless.
It's the best live performance by a rock band ever caught on video.
Mark makes it look so easy! Never get tired of listening to this!
YES!!! Man, I've listened to this record millions of times and I adore it! Alchemy is such a beast! Dire Straits / Knopfler are among my all-time top 5 and I'm so happy that you're coming back to them! ❤
And here I thought I was the only one having done that.
My favourite version. Love the high energy.
Money for Nothing was the first song done with CGI back in 1985. It's done by this same Artist. You and your fans would absolutely love it.
I just realized that Mark Knopfler composed the music for the movie The Princess Bride!! I love that soundtrack! I get why now 😁💚
And several other movies, as well-Local Hero, Cal, Wag the Dog, Last Exit to Brooklyn , and more.
One thing about Mark Knopfler is that he makes it look so damn *_easy_* when he plays something like this.
It's like it takes zero effort.
He's absolutely amazing.
First band I ever saw live when I was 15. Can't think of many or any better acts I saw since.
Great video! I always appreciated a concert where talented musicians changed up their songs. It showed skill and creativity and made it exciting for the audience.
I remember going to a Stones concert (2000) and every song sounded exactly like their records, not a note different. You may as well stay home and listen to their records. Thanks again for this one!
