    "Legends... I'm 58 years old and their music has been with me since I was 13 and they will accompany me as long as I live. Dire Straits the No. 1 band in the world!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎸❤❤❤

      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.

      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.

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.

    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. 😊
