BLOWN AWAY! I don't know what you do for a living, Steve, but if it isn't by playing guitar, then I've just increased my list of major problems in the world by one! Absolutely amazing! Thank you.
Haha. Great comment. Thank you. As a matter of fact it IS playing guitar. See my Facebook Pages at "Steve Fletcher Guitar World." or "Steve Fletcher & The Angels of Mercy." All the best.

this is so perfect. I grew up listening to dire straits, but for some reason i stopped going into my 16s and moved on to heavier music up to metalcore. Now I've seen this video and while i still enjoy metal you've brought back the love i felt for this music, and you've inspired me to finally learn this solo i never had the will to start learning. Thanks man have a good day
After watching this video it inspired me to sit down and play it as it looks so easy. After picking up my guitar I have decided to just sit and play the smoke on the water intro as it makes me sound good 😂

I'm afraid you can't. I create the backing tracks myself and I don't make them available.....yet! if you Subscribe to my UA-cam page and Like my facebook page at facebook.com/stevefletcherguitarworld then you'll get the post saying when and where the backing tracks are available.
Steve, expressing deep gratitude here for showing us how this is done. Really appreciate the slowed down version also. I have played this live version with a band in the past and had nailed the beginning, the breakdown and the ending with the classic lick. But some of the licks you've shared here were quite challenging for me to dissect. This is not just soloing, it is composition - with so many memorable phrases woven together brilliantly. Love the tone you get and you have awesome precision. You seem to use thumb and index finger and do just fine. Does Knopfler also use his middle finger for chicken pickin' percussiveness? I have been trying to play that way and struggling a bit to play at speed.
Steve Fletcher a mi ni me sale tan perfecto como a ti ,pero vas por muy buen camino. Tan solo práctica diario y ya te saldrá a la velocidad correcta . Suerte !!!

@@SteveFletcherGuitar Listened to the original and about four other versions. You're playing three wrong notes. Instead of pulling off from F to D on the E string it should go from D (on the E string) to C then Bb (on the B string)

Thanks for the comment. It's not meant to be a 'sound-a-like' video. I find them pretty pointless in general as most of the sound of each individual guitarist comes from the fingers. I've just uploaded a new version of this song - the FULL track Thankyou. New version uploaded now - the FULL song! ua-cam.com/video/5msFE8yeDF8/v-deo.html
Thanks for comment. It's not meant to be a 'soundalike'. No one can sound like MK anyway. The tone was so I was comfortable and could play it right. All the best. Steve
@@SteveFletcherGuitar Fair enough, it just so happened that I watched this kid play before I saw your version. ua-cam.com/video/COKrrhjFFvk/v-deo.html His tone is so close to the original I first thought he was 'miming' (or whatever the term is for just pretending to playing guitar). His timing is a bit off in some parts but overall spot on in my opinion. There's another guy who plays great MK songs but forgot his name.
BIG , B I G , B I G ! ! ! THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man I can tell you play it well but please though everything you have written line 6 in the trash because that’s what it’s worth. Your guitar and your playing deserves better
Thanks for comment. I bought the line 6 out of necessity. In a perfect world I would have a HighWatt, a Vox AC30, a Boogie and a Bassman. All of which require serious high volume to play to max effect which, living on a residential area isn't an option for me. And having two young children I don't have room for a stash of amps.
That being said I would completely agree with you on the lower end Line 6 stuff like the Pod and Spider. The Amplifi 150 has really impressed me. I've played it live and in the studio.
@@SteveFletcherGuitar I don t know man it just feels like the sound is not on par with your talent. Maybe the settings are not right for this song then. I've been playing mark knofpler style for 20 years and I can tell you know what you re doing on that song, I'm even jealous lol, but the sound is not really good on the recording. I've recently been using amp modellers on mac and ipad and I find them to be a lot better than digital amps and pedals, except when you get to the 2000$ mark, like fractal stuff. Just my opinion but I have to admit my ears are not tolerant to digital stuff, not to brag about it because it actually is very frustrating always hating what i hear when I play on these things. Anyways keep up the good stuff, I really enjoyed it

yes it is
Its a tiny bit sloppy
God Job otherwise
@@RemcoJvGrevenbroek That is NOT Sloppy! That's sheer bloody talent mate. Wish i could play like that and I've been at it quite a few years.
