      Around 1985, my dad popped in a cassette tape in the radio of our red BMW. He said "Listen to this, you'll like this" (Alchemy) What a trip that's turned out to be. Here I am, still committed and obsessed with every glorious note.

      well, I´m nearly 60 years old, live in Germany and I first heard Dire Straits when I was in England as a young boy on holiday in 1978. I was flashed, as younger people would say nowadays, but I still fall in love with this music, when I hear it. Listen to just one song and I have to listen to the whole album. Thank God I was living at this time when Dire Straits became a great band. Thank you, Mark.

    What I love best about Mark and particularly this track is that there are many live versions of it yet every time he manages to put a slightly different twist to it with his solo parts. To me, he is one of the best guitarists ever.

      Lions! What a banger that is. In fact I have the tattoo of the lyrics on my arm. Was in a record shop earlier this year in Chester, UK where a teenager was buying the DS first album. I told him, "Great choice" and showed my tattoo. I totally regret that I didn't buy the vinyl for him. Should have done that.

Immenso sir mark knopfler prima con la band dei dire straits da lui creata e poi da solista. Il suo talento musicale e talmente grande che se gli metti in mano al posto della chitarre un mocio vileda e capace di far uscire note musicali anche da quello. Grazie di tutto mark knopfler da parte di un tuo fedele fans che ti segue da 40 anni. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

    Mesmerizing performance!!!!! My favourite song from the album this came from. Romeo and Juliet was pretty good too though. This is my favourite line up of Dire Straits at a time when they were still fresh and raw with extreme talent. Love Pick Withers drumming here. Alas nothing lasts forever but lucky we have videos like this to go back to and capture some of the original feelings when first hearing this music. Great music lasts!!!!

    So natural. Crazy how good this band are. When you have songs written of this calibre, nothing less comes close. Mark Knopfler is astoundingly superb. A master of his craft. The band were full of brilliant musicians, whatever the current lineup was at the time. Of course there's no Dire Straits without Mark Knopfler. Virtuoso and rightly so regarded as one of the finest musicians/guitarists to ever grace this earth. 😊

    What I really like about this video in particular is that it features a specific point in time where Dire Straits weren't the Arena Rock band with big shows and bloated songs, but they also weren't the soft rock straight killer band that survived the punk movement into the 80's. I might be wrong there, but the only original band members on this video are Mark and Illsley. They're closer to the album arrangements, but starting to drift away, trying to push more juice into songs. More videos from this show would be very appreciated. Thank you Dire Straits!
