@PeterJohnson76 Thanks again for listening Peter, yes I used to love watching this concert as a child, on VHS! There's a lot of closeups on MK's hands as he plays, hope that helps.
@PeterJohnson76 I can't advise much on where to get TAB, but the good thing is MK only really uses a few positions on the neck (12th fret, 7th fret, open position, and a few runs in other spots). So if you can get the Em scale down in those spots, it'll put you in the right areas to work it out visually/by ear. Hope that helps :)
Thank you for your performance. Very apreciated as a beginner on guitar I very much enjoy the sharing of guitar-playing, especially with DireStraits MK. I love the dynamics of the intro. I always wanted to decipher this live version and you’ve helped me a lot! On the scarse videos of this one you don’t see too much what Mark do with his fingers. But as I noticed on the intro he stays in 12th position. I always searched there but without any results. So in a way your version, with the switching to the 7th position at the beginning made me see the light. I would rather stay in 12th position for avoiding touching unwanted string(as a beginner it happens a lot). So I play the first verse like this : B4 - 12th (B string) then , D4 - 12th (D string), B3 - 14th (A string), D4 - 12th (D string), F#4 - 16th (D string), D4 - 12th (D string) and E4 - 14th (D string). The rest as you did. Best regards. Fred§.😄
Thanks for listening Paul. I know the moment you mean, the camera is focused on the whole band (plus those blue bars), so we can't see where MK's left hand is on the neck. For me, playing that lick in 7th position has a clearer tone due to the unwound strings. I often move things to other positions for clearer tone, playing ease etc. Good luck with the rest of it!

@abeltomascela6983 thankyou, wish it was as good as MK! I'm getting into hybrid picking at the moment, such as what Brett Garsed does, but only with pick-middle-ring fingers.
Sounds wonderful, beautifully played! I think it has been 6 years since I left a comment re your very nice Tunnel of Love rendition. Looking forward to the next one… ca 2027?

Really nice tone !!! You have that stingy trebley sound on the second string !! Which i always thought Mark pleked his EQ's to cut the mix if you know what i mean.
Thanks for listening Ismail, your MK covers are great themselves :) yeah Mark was very high in the mix in Sydney '86, and that Pensa Suhr with the 2 mini humbuckers cut thru quite a bit. Are you gonna try to buy it?
What you did was impeccable, that's the word, congratulations on the timbre and the ease on the instruments, you captured the spirit of this mesmerizing song very well. I love Ride Across The River, it's my favorite song from BIA Tour 85/86, an impactful opening to the show. Could you share the effects you use on guitars? Congratulations and a Knopflerian hug!
Hey Bruno, thanks for the kind words, it's good to see someone famous in the DS/MK online community watching my videos! Yeah RATR is a cracker, I was especially happy to get to use a DX1, as GF himself did. Guitar FX was Guitar Rig 6, with a bit of gain on the Skreamer thru the Marshall, and a bit of delay. Guitar is a Warmoth with SD Little 59 in the bridge, and DiMarzio Virtual Vintage Pro in the middle/neck. Hope that helps, happy to chat about it more, thanks for watching.

I must say that Ride Across The River has the ability to create an incredibly unique atmosphere, as it has an aphrodisiac "aroma", I don't know how to explain it in words, but it takes me to a unique dimension, it is always a unique experience to contemplate this music at the same time. alive, I've already heard dozens and dozens of bootleg versions, analyzing its evolution between 85/86 and the ways the band found to develop it, especially Mark Knopfler and his impressive ability to improvise. Did you get to see the RATR version on video in Aukland, New Zealand, in March 1986? It's a breathtaking version, full of atmosphere. ruclips.net/video/FLxUVCPIdzw/видео.htmlsi=ANxYwOZBA0VHjWa3
Thanks for listening Ben. It was Guitar Rig 6, with a bit of hair on the Skreamer pedal, with a Marshall amp. On the original, MK used the best rig available of course - Pensa Suhr with Seymour Duncan mini humbuckers, and a Jim Kelley amp. I really think the mini hums with metal covers are the key. All the best working on the tone :)
Thanks for listening. If you're in Australia as I am, you can get them from Ace Guitar Parts or The Hairy-Dude Guitar Tech. Not sure where you'd get them overseas sorry, maybe AllParts? Or try eBay, Reverb etc. Also, if you want the full Schecter-style assembly with pickups and everything, Ingo Raven at MK Guitar might still sell them. Hope that helps :)
@gamebuffer2487 thanx! Let me know how it sounds, if you put a video online or whatever. I'm actually getting a Schecter-style pickguard together for my Warmoth, but with a different setup, so not using Ingo's unfortunately. They're great from what I've seen.
Thanks for listening, I know what you mean, but I covered the Sydney 1986 live version, not the album version. Of course I couldn't play it as well as GF 😀 ruclips.net/video/txpR7hGsQB4/видео.html

@PeterJohnson76 Thanks again for listening Peter, yes I used to love watching this concert as a child, on VHS! There's a lot of closeups on MK's hands as he plays, hope that helps.
@@peterclancymusic1518 haha yes but I can't work it out from the occasional close-up.

Thank you for your performance. Very apreciated as a beginner on guitar I very much enjoy the sharing of guitar-playing, especially with DireStraits MK.
I love the dynamics of the intro.
I always wanted to decipher this live version and you’ve helped me a lot!
On the scarse videos of this one you don’t see too much what Mark do with his fingers. But as I noticed on the intro he stays in 12th position. I always searched there but without any results.
So in a way your version, with the switching to the 7th position at the beginning made me see the light.
I would rather stay in 12th position for avoiding touching unwanted string(as a beginner it happens a lot).
So I play the first verse like this : B4 - 12th (B string) then , D4 - 12th (D string), B3 - 14th (A string), D4 - 12th (D string), F#4 - 16th (D string), D4 - 12th (D string) and E4 - 14th (D string). The rest as you did.

definitely considering joining the sound studio for stuff like this and after all that DX1 was owned and played by the Guy Fletcher from dire straits
