    I haven't heard this song since 1987! I was in high school marching band playing alto sax, and I taught myself to play the sax part of this song, lol. This was really one of the last songs of this type to come out. After 1985 the pop music scene veered off into very different territory.

    My joint-favourite track by Dire Straits along with Six Blade Knife, RIP Michael Brecker. Good choice - especially like the dark alleyway backdrop 🙂

    One of my first CDs, it just sounded SO good. The album is in my top 5. So many great tracks, and varying styles with top notch song writing and musicianship. My other favorite "sleeper" tracks: Ride Across the River (Master Class in atmospheric soundscapes), Mans Too Strong (story telling), and One World (Mark ripping it up with his blues licks).

    "Private Dancer" by Tina Turner was also written by Mark Knopfler, but he thought it would be better suited to a female singer so it ended up being recorded by Tina, but all of Dire Straits except Mark played on it.

    Another great song from such a classic album! I think that one of my favorite parts was that intro. Some of Mark’s vocals gave me Chris Rea vibes. Enjoy the rest of your Tuesday! 😊

      Yea, I can see the Rea reference. I mentioned the deeper tones of Mark's voice here. Rea's coming back soon, but excited to dip into more 90s, likely 2 more times this week!! Nap time, then back to editing haha...

    Oh my sainted heart! These genius tones of the late Michael Brecker's saxophone hit me emotionally every time I hear them on this beautiful song. 🥲 His playing was so unique and instantly recognisable. You can hear it on various recordings by Eric Clapton and Paul Simon, among others. God rest his soul.

      An odd thing about the drums, this and all the other drum tracks were originally played by the bands regular drummer but then re-recorded by American session drummer Omar Hakim who's playing you hear here. The only part left by the original drummer is the intro to Money for Nothing with the rest of the song played by Hakim. Apparently they decided they didn't like the 'sound' of the recording of the original drum tracks so got Omar in to replay them (apparently mimicking the original parts already played) as he would nail the job quickly. That's the only explanation I've ever found on the internet but it seems strange. If i'd been their original drummer i'd have been pretty hacked off about it...😅

    Your Latest Trick would have fit well on MK's solo albums. Not exactly rock, more jazzy blues. Nice.
    Per usual, MK can spin a tale with precise lyrics, the sax outro echoing the sadness of the lyrics. Well written song overall, but, it is MK, of course it is
    More worth a listen from Brothers In Arms (deep cuts, not the obvious hits, and our host has already done the title track):
    Why Worry
    One World
    Ride Across The River
