This is the best version of the song ...I was at the original concert in Essex university but I can't remember this off-hand. I think this is the best version.
I thought Sidney ‘86 was the only recording of SFA Calypso version, so thanks for sharing! This one is not as bold yet MK soloing and tone is sweet (sounds like his Pensa Suhr). There’s some extra, funny, lyrics at the end.
It was something like "okay Mark how do you get into trousers like that? Because unlike you I'm not extremely fat". Must have been a skinny pants joke.

“Because unlike you I’m not extremely fat”😭😭
Was this one really that? Wasn't it just the Snape gig and some '98 concerts?
it's such a pity he doesn't joke any longer on stage- hardly smiles. Sigh. Maybe because HE can't wear those trousers now... love him anyway.
The Australian version of 1986 is so much better.
I agree...band in that tour (BIA) was just awesome!! All great musicians.
my english is not good enough to understand the joke on 5:05 - 5:28. could anyone write it on a comment???... thanks a lot.

+Custard Boy. jejejjee....... ;) thanks ...
Well, it's not Dire Straits,, :)
But it's Mark Knopfler and it's largely enough.

Guy Fletcher?@@malcolmhardwick4258
@@malcolmhardwick4258 Guy Fletcher played with Mark Knopfler in the Notting Hillbillies band.
I don't think Alan Clark had such plans.
Sydney 86’ is better
I think doing this calypso spoils the words of the song. It's a beautiful love song ruined. :(
