A good old 60's band line up but, a drummer who can drum. Such a full sound from so few and a singer who can sing and be understood. No more is needed😎
I followed every note played by the lead guitarist and he hit everything that I was expecting off Mark K’s original recording. He does a brilliant job, here. Hugely impressive and seemingly effortless. It must be very satisfying to play like that. 👍😎🇳🇿✨🎸
One of my favorite songs from my early-teen years. This Australian band is really great. The musicians are phenomenal and are able to sing just like the original singers and sometimes even better. I admire all you guys, and this singer always looks so charismatic in whichever clip he's in. Keep up the great job, guys. Cheers, from southeastern Brazil.
An embarrassment of musical riches right here, featuring the man himself Con, Brad master drummer\vocals, Dusty on rhythm guitar and then bring in James a guitar gunslinger.....😎 so HSCC. Loved it.
I'm not exaggerating when I say that Sultans of Swing is my favourite song of all time. I'm really pleased that Dire Straits are finally releasing SoS (from their On Every Street Tour), in their upcoming Live 1978-1992 collection. HSCC, this was flawless! It seems really unfair that RUclips only allow you to 'like' this once. I propose that RUclips change this so that we can like it every time we watch!
What the ****, how's that possible? Can't believe what I heard. That guitar solo is on fire plus awesome voice of the lead singer... Like button is not enough for this cover. Gooooooood job!
As a musician myself, this is one of the best cover bands you will ever hear. All are great musicians and vocalists. I can't wait to see them in the states.
The most calm cool collected (dare I say unassuming) lead guitarist ever, James, you nailed it!!! Dusty nice rhythm. Con gray vocals and base. Brad… mates, you all crushed it. Great job!
@@michaelgatchalian7664 REO's cover is good and the singer sounds like Mark Knopfler......an ethnic Mark Knopfler. Con doesn't sound like an ethnic Mark Knopfler even though Con is also ethnic. Affirmative action accolades not needed for HSCC.....they are good in their own right and deservedly well earned.
super clean drums, lead and solo guitar on point and great and the singing while playing bass being as layback as only a bass player can be.. what a cover! sublime
Sounds awesome guys. You are a very talented bunch. Also goes to show how super talented and creative Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits are. True legends.
When I first heard the original Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits back in the day, I was blown away. This version is very good indeed and the lead guitar playing is awesome !
One word...TIGHT! Exceptionally tight and talented drummer, incredibly perfect and tight lead guitarist, (every note and nuance rang true), solid rhythm guitarist carried the whole tune, bass playing and vocals are masterful. Wonderful rendition and very pleasing to watch and listen to. Thanks guys for my usual Thursday night fix!
This is my favorite cover at this point in time. I find myself playing it often and sometimes multiple times in a row. Watching these guys play their instruments in 4k resolution, on my big screen, with the excellent sound through my good amp and speakers is beyond cool. I really like the format of watching musicians up close playing their instruments. These guys are as good as the original.
Y’all nailed it! Can’t just acknowledge that guitarist who’s bad ass”but the entire band is outstanding every one is on key! Thank you for uploading the video and best wishes.
having listened to this song countless times in my youth, I know note by note of this entire song and always look forward to the guitar solo parts especially, in any cover version. this version is just perfect, note for note, and MK would be so so proud.....of course the rest of the entire band played awesome too, keep up the good work guys....love and respect from India.
These guys are fantastic. Auto tune, and digital tracks can't hold a candle to absolutely raw talent. I remember growing up when we'd hear something like this, and it inspired you to take lessons. Cities were actually a community of togetherness. I'd like to thank you for posting this. I just love it 😊
So nice to hear Con finally sing! I like that raspy voice. I love when it's just bass, guitar, and drums. Beautiful guitar solo too. Thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated this one. Of course, love to listen to you guys every week! Keep making music. 🥰
just like listening to the original ......10/10 in my book , I got to work with them back in 1978 only one show ,but these lads really do it song justice
BRAVO !......The hairs on my neck standing on end. I know how complex a piece of music this is and you guys played it beautifully. No frills, stripped down as it is meant to be played. Con....great vocals. James........you really made that Strat Cry and Sing !!!
For anyone who’s picked up a guitar, it can make any noise possible. It’s a world of opportunity for noise. Someone like mark knopfler came along and made it make a sound like that - just absolute genius.
Geez you guys, you seriously never disappoint. Unbelievable. All excellent today, love to hear Con sing, but a special shout-out to James on that lead guitar. Omg, amazing.
There’s something about being this close together While standing apart And not looking😃 That is the secret of life I really think it’s our future. THANKS GUYS
What can I say, all members performed brilliantly, with perfect pace and drive. All I need to do now is to listen to it again it was that good. Well done
How can you go wrong with Con, James, Brad and Dusty ??? Four of the best musicians on the planet. Just top notch !!!! Superb in every respect. Love It!!
Tastefully done by all and special recognition goes out to the lead guitarist, I've listen to many who do well at the solo and such of this song but none have the touch and feel as you do. Spot on!!!
The mix is just out of the world. The drums sounds amazing especially the snare sounds absolutely beautiful. I have heard some good covers but this sits on top for the overall sound. Everything is top notch guitar tone to playing, the bass playing and singing also the rhythm guitars and man oh man some great drums exceptional playing absolutely mesmerized. Great absolutely beautiful more importantly i am in awe of the mix.
That was awesome! Fantastic performance of this incredible song, never gets old. All of you guys rock but a special shout out to James Muller: man you nailed that, really fricking good!!! And you're standing there so cool and relaxed as if it's the easiest thing in the world 😎🤘
I've listened to this song for nearly 40 years. I'm still addicted to it, in fact more than ever. This cover band has done an amazing job of making it as beautiful as the original. So, I love it so much that I bought an electric guitar and learned the lead guitar part. It has taken 4 months of daily playing and I am nearly good enough to play it on stage. My wife and kids have practically disowned me.
I've also been addicted to this song since this song came out around 1979. I also play a little bit of guitar but I don't even start, too hard. Nice to hear I'm not the only one addicted to this song. Hurry up and make up for the damage with your family.
I know this was 12 months ago and I've just commented, but it's about the best cover of this I've heard. This song shook up the music world and you did it justice. To the guitarist .. You have talent big style MARK uk
The lead guitarist is a phenomenal player. Made it look easy.
Best version from the original, That bass player also puts everything into it
He should have the red Strat, though 😁
Amazing cover, for real!
Man...he's great! Whatta a playing...and sound! Brilliant...
Soo cleaaaan!
Spectacular... wish I could play like that
Until today 16 June 2024 this is the best ever cover for this song. Thumb up...
A good old 60's band line up but, a drummer who can drum. Such a full sound from so few and a singer who can sing and be understood.
No more is needed😎
I'm 75 yo This is the BEST COVER EVER😮😮😊!!!!!

One of the best Sultan of swing cover...just amazing 👍🎸🤟
The lead guitarist nailed his part to near perfection. Great cover.
To be fair James Muller could probably play anything. Up there with Aussie Greats like Gambale and Garsed🙏🏻
He sounded better than the original ! 👍
Any more relaxed and he would fall in a coma ... Superb!!
He didn't make it fast with one more thing :(
@@tmacstealth7624this is wild
YES YOU ARE THE SULTANS OF SWING!!!!!!
One of the cleanest covers I’ve heard of this song. Nailed the solos!!
Check REO Brothers version - ruclips.net/video/t50sXxeJehg/видео.html
It's the Aussie acsent makes it easier

@@ladriatico This is better than REO Brothers. I like REO too, I wld give REO A for the attempt, but this A+
As good as DS, but sounds even better thanks for the technology.
This band has an unreasonable amount of talent .
most countries don't allow it...Aussie's allow it...
That is how its done...for me, the best cover band!

lead guitar player is the bomb on this one fellas. Playing amazing, tone.... incredible. Good job to all.
Without my glasses, I thought for a moment that I was listening to Dire Straits! Fantastic performance gentlemen!
This cover is so flawless, even if I sit and think for hours.There is no criticism whatsoever.
This band nailed it in every aspect
Wow - a stunning cover with immaculate skills from all involved in this performance - thanks guys for sharing
Let’s have some love for that drumming please 👌🏻 flawless sir
That’s Brad Polain. Absolute Gun ✊
Smack dab in the groove, Brad!
You guys are tighter than a gnats ass stretched over a rain barrel!
Don’t ever stop rockin!👍
Drummer is putting in the work!!!……Awesome job guys….. Simply Awesome…..
The drummer is simply great, chapeau👍
Nice and clean like the original without all the horrible fills that most covers include

Great to See James Muller again, I love his guitar work !
James Muller is great. He makes it look so easy. His sounds are pure.
This is by far the best cover I have ever seen. They did it effortlessly with a great talent.
Reo bros cover is better
Very tight. Kudos to all four.
One of the best covers of any song in the world. Period. Greetings from Mexico!
Brilliant James Muller - nailed it! Vocal sure suits Con on this one. Nice 4-piece band sound. Well done boys.
That’s one awesome lead guitarist right there ,,,, top job 👏👏
Sounds awesome guys. You are a very talented bunch. Also goes to show how super talented and creative Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits are. True legends.
Those drums sound so good. Rare to have such well-played and well-recorded drums on RUclips.
Very discrete drummer , with well-tuned drums. Difficult combination!
@@22alisaxni As a beginner drummer I can only agree.
@@Ludo_A keep up the good work,man....
Yeah, drums carry this song
Yes, and no. It's very clean and stable, but i prefer Terry Williams - he used to push faster and harder after first half of the song.
An absolute world class performance by everyone.
Absolutely flawless !
👏🏻👍🏻
Hats off to the lead guitarist you took me back the 80s mate
Insane how good this is. Each musician is flawless ❤
Guys, you're very brilliant! CHEERS!
When I first heard the original Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits back in the day, I was blown away. This version is very good indeed and the lead guitar playing is awesome !
Playing bass and singing at the same time is not easy! Good job Mr Bassman, you’re awesome!
very true
Yup, swimming whilst singing much difficult, yes, just kidding.
Totally agree. I play bass & back up singer in a band. It took me a while to get comfortable and use to it.
The guy on bass is the person who started the group.
Dude always strikes a cool vibe with his presence.
Absolutely fantastic guys. The guitar tone is bang on and sounds so crisp. The drummer is great as well. Excellent all around to a song I adore.
That was awesome Conn. Thanks for the beautiful music you all produce for our listening pleasure. 💃🏽🕺🏾

That's my favourite Dire Straits song. Wow, I could hardly tell the difference from the original!!! Excellent cover guys 👍👍👍
Best Dire Straits Sultan's of Swing cover I've heard on RUclips. Voice, music, everything! Spot on, perfect!!! Bravo boys! Do it. Yeah. 😄
I saw Dire Straits a couple of times in my life, and guys, you took me right back there ❤🎵🎶🙏❤️🇦🇺🦘🍻🍻
What happens when a group of studio musicians start a cover band? Magic
He even nailed the tones. The final solo was absolutely perfect. Everyone did such a great job. Such talent
Fabulous cover! JM... wow... one of the great guitar solos done brilliantly. Nice to see the men lead out this time.
Of all the HSCC excellent covers, this one surpasses all. Bravo, guys! Take a bow!
Incredible performance. Simply perfect.
Great Tempo! Real good guitar work and tone. Sound very well produced! Good job dudes!
*THAT LEAD GUITARIST THOUGH* !!!
*OUTSTANDING* 👏🏼👏🏼
Listened 30 times today crazy guitar work made it look easy.
Flawless just flawless. Music has great powers.
When the “like” button is not enough for HSCC then you just have to say something positive. Well done Everyone !
Masterclass! And the Mark Knopfler guitar cover is the best version I have ever heard - kudos my friend.
Reo bros cover is better

WOW that guitar playing was amazing Dire Straits could have not done it any better, well done guys HSCC JUST ROCKS!!
Of course Mark Knopfler did it better in his prime. But considering that the guitarist uses a pick and not fingerstyle, it's very very good and fluid.
You character... There are a million guitarists that can play that simple riff.. But only one created it!
Amazing guitar solo by James Muller, best wishes from Mexico.

That guitarist nailed it 100%-doing anything by the great Mark knopfler is never easy,especially “Sultans Of Swing”.✌️
