My favourite music of late. I spoke with Mr Illsley in July 1983 just after one of the Alchemy concerts. He was courteous, grounded and kindly. I purchased his recent book without hesitation.
Thank you John. I have you see in the 80er whith Mark in 6 x Hamburg, Berlin, Hannover and Bremen. And i have you see on the solo Tours in Hamburg Landhaus Walter. Great Cinema. Danke John Illsley 👍
Читал об этом концерте в газете "Советская Россия" статья называлась "Пинк Флойд строит Стену". И это были вести с Марса! Это был 1980 г.!В жизни не думал, что увижу это легендарное выступление своими глазами!
just walked in to the kitchen and was like "youre not the only one whos got something to hide" and like wait what's that song ?! And here I'm back after many years 😅
John, thank you for still presenting us with nice songs, certainly inspired on Dire Straits songs. By the way, you are Dire Straits’s soul, like Mark :-)
Tonight John gave a concert with his band in Zoetermeer/The Hague / Holland, it was just great, live is still so much different. John & Band got standing ovations ( it was standing room only / SRO , hahaha... ) they enjoyed it very much, they kept on playing with encores a d the crowd went ..... we want more...... a d so did I. We all had the " Time of my Life...... "
Купил этот альбом - наслаждаюсь музыкой Марка ! Сольники слушаю практически все - каждый альбом под своё настроение ! И слушаю чаше даже чем Dire Straits ! Хотя довольно регулярно слушаю и сольники John Illsley Всем удачи ! 🇺🇦

someone sent this to me and I love it .Who knew John was watching Mark all that time. I can't wait to get to Heaven and learn guitar for myself!!! Both of them guys can make that guitar sing.
Thanks for that John I didn'y know you were on RUclips! I've been been a big Straits fan since I was 11. It made me pick the giutar up and I've been playing ever since 13 23 years!! Good stuff and the best of luck. Your guitar playing reminds me of someone can't think who....;-)
Amazing song and Singer, wow you and Mark can play with real feeling thats just the best, i hope to cover some of your great stuff with are Dire Straits tribute band Sultans of Swingers.
Yes, this song is great, thanks for sending me tis. I love the guitar and obviously the vocals. The lyrics are very catchy, "Who thinks Gods on his side" amazing!
Роскошная, чарующая музыка. Она уносит тебя далеко, в другой мир, где есть надежда и подлинная любовь. Спасибо, замечательная подборка

This one has a great Dire Straits sound. Thanks for sharing John.

Great job John Illsley!
Toe the line my pretty one
Toe the line my friend
You're not the only one
With fences to mend
Toe the line my brother
Toe the line my guide
You're not the only one
With something to hide
You're not the only one
Who's precious to me
You're not the only one
Who wants to break free
Toe the line for silver
Toe the line for gold
You're not the only one
Never told a soul
Toe the line for freedom
Toe the line for peace
You're not the only one
Making mischief
You're not the only one
Full of hatred and pride
You're not the only one
Who thinks God's on his side
You're not the only one
Who's precious to me
You're not the only one
Who wants to break free
Toe the line my soldier
Toe the line my heart
We're not the only ones
Drifting apart
Toe the line
Toe the line
Nice to see John as well as listening to him. One of my all time favourites along with Mark K and Richard Hawley
Backing vocs for Mark K. were never just the backing vocs. Now I know why. ;) Brilliant!
