One of the greatest live performances of all time🔥
Saw them in 1986 in Sydney Australia.....Old school musicians...Great Concert!!!
So did I, they were great 👍
The pure joy in that performance.
Fastest 10 minutes of your life.
Pure perfection!
@peterfallert4994 this is without question the greatest live performance of any rock song I've ever seen... Knopfler OMG... and the frkn drummer....wow
Amen. Mark is the Sensei of the Frets.
Crowd without Smartphones........ pure Joy
Terry Williams on drums
What a star he is/ was
@@daphnethurlow5388makes the think of Animal from the Muppets! Fantastic
Mark Knopfler only guitarist who has Eric Clapton play rhythm guitar for him. GOAT lead guitarist
Really enjoyed your reaction. Fun Fact: Not only is Mark a finger-plucking guitar virtuoso, but despite the fact that he is left handed, he is doing this with his right hand! Also, in addition to being a fabulous lead singer and musician, he was doing the song-writing and composition for the band as well (and pretty much every song has a great real-life story behind it too). The cherry on the sundae, they are pulling this off live while making it look so easy! "Telegraph Road" and "Once Upon a Time in the West" are two other breathtaking live performances from the same Alchemy Live concert that deserve attention.
This entire performance is absolutely F**king ridiculous! 1983. 🔥
I knew you would like it, now please Telegraph Road from the same concert. It's even better in my opinion.
@@arnodobler1096 it’s certainly pretty close!
@@arnodobler1096 this ^
Mark Knopfler is left handed and learned to play right handed so he didn't look different from other guitar players and he was self taught. He didn't read music, and he doesn't use a pick. He does what is known as the banjo roll. Uses the tips of his first 3 fingers and thumb to pluck the strings creating his unique sound.
@@neilholland3415 he is a savant! One of my favorite songwriter / guitarists. So amazing!
Masterpiece/performance dot yes!! 😍😍😍
One of the greatest live performances of all time
Romeo and Juliet live 1986 or 1993 or brothers in arms or tunnel of love
i am 75 and been rockin all my life.These guys have just got to be from another planet...Heaven sent..Thanks for the flag also.
If you want to see the keyboard player shine, watch "Telegraph Road" from the same concert (Alchemy Live). Great reaction to a stellar performance!
THIS 👆
My daily dose of genius
Thank you for reacting to the best band ever. Top musicians individually, amazing team work, awesome interaction with the public and the geniality of Mark Knopfler not only as a guitar player but as the mastermind behind all the compositions for all instruments and the lyrics, for the band and solo. In this performance Terry and Mark are insane (it was the first time Terry's father was in the audience, he was killing it for Dad). Mark always got inspiration to write from daily life events he would witness or live, then he would write masterpieces enhancing every unique skill his band musicians owned and would deliver us a hell of a ride.
Didn't we grow up with the best music, pure class.
I love the look Mark gives at the end "Fookin' nailed it"
You must see telegraph road at the same concert , Master peace. Enjoy.
The whole Alchemy concert was amazing, definitely worth seeing. "Telagraph Road" was pure perfection.
Mark is a god on the guitar and always so calm and focused.
Terry on the drums really gave it his all and the song comes alive through these drums. The whole band in this line-up was just perfect.
And also excellent "Tunnel of Love" Live Wembley 85" The outro was just unbelievable
Saw it in London..they are great
Quite simply one of the greatest performances ever from anyone. Mark Knopfler was in a put in Deptford, London and he witnessed a dixieland jazz band playing to an almost empty audience, at the end of the set they said "Thank you, good night, we are the Sultans of Swing " Mark found it amusing because that is exactly what they weren't, and he wrote the song. Genius.
Someone give that drum kit a cigarette. 😂
When a band comes out with sweat bands ... u know they mean business.
The lyrics of this song is an ode to the hundreds if not thousands of amateur jazz bands all over the UK. When I lived in SW London in the 1970s there was a band playing in every pub in my neighbourhood. Great entertainment of all genres of Jazz.
MK says that the little jazz band which this song is about weren't sultans of anything - they were apparently pretty mediocre and it's amusing that they called themselves The Sultans of Swing.
Best living guitarist ❤
@@jarmolehtonen7594 in my 74 years I've never heard better than Mark.
@@jarmolehtonen7594 Absolutely yes
Drummer killed it on this track.
That tennis player is really good at guitar!!!
LOL
Did you notice there were 2 keyboard players, one each side of the drummer, with about 7 keyboards between them
I love the sheer happiness that exudes from this performance, which I was lucky enough and privileged enough to have seen live, but I have to tell you it is pure sacrilege to interrupt a Mark Knopfler guitar solo.
Lucky indeed! This show is kinda ridiculous!
mark walked into a pub one day and a band called sultans of swing were playing but nobody was really paying much attention to them but they played on anyway.
Please don't pause in Mark Knopfler's solos. Otherwise cool video, glad you enjoyed it.
No bigger compliment ever extended for this piece of art than quoting the immortal words of perhaps the greatest poet and lyricist of the 20th century, Sir MC Hammer: Can't touch this! 😄❤
No he didn't have enough keys so they bought in a second keyboard player 😂
Please listen to Telegraph Road (Alchemy Live) next. It will blow you away. It is a Masterpiece !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Brit band! 🇬🇧
The song is about a little jazz band. Playing every gig to a nearly empty house (but Harry has a daytime job, so he's doin' alright). They call their little band "The Sultans of Swing".
The drum kit walked off side stage after performance, and lit a cigarette. 😂❤
Hell, they carried Terry's drum kit out on a stretcher after this show. First time his father was in the audience to see him play live. 😂😂😂
@derklavierspieler7491 I didn't realize that even as old as I am. My understanding was this was his first time seeing him with DS.
@@johnathanstruble1064 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I hope the kit is at least 18....
Thank God for Dire Straights
Do brothers in arms live from the mandela concert next! One of the best guitar performances of all time🥳
Así es...no hay...no habrá ..dudo..en mucho tiempo algo similar en tiempo forma..estilo..calidad sonora estética ...etc etc ...Soda con el tiempo va generando lo inmenso q fueron ...y vigente q es su música ...eso no pasa siempre..entiendo q dividamos siempre ...y tiren dardos y comparen pero ..la música es gusto , ..se sabe ...ahora hay gente ..artistas q trascienden ..Gustavo es uno de esos ...y no digo mas para no generar nada ..pero ..fue ..único ...en todo✨
Absolute FIRE!
Wasn't just "Sultans" The whole concert was outstanding, Telegraph Road and Tunnel of Love next?
Add these to your list to react to. Chinchilla "Caps Lock" "Bounce Back" Lyric or official your choice, are good your choice. just two of her most recent to be on her up coming new EP "Flytrap"
Hi there. talking a about a band called the sultans of swing . Tells their story. "George he knows all those fancy chords " Harry, another one having a daytime job , going well,etc but when they're playing on night clubs "that's when they became the sultans of swing "😊 they became themselves
Just about a badly put together band they caught in a fly-by-night pub called the sultans of swing which played every type of song, even Creole, but not swing.
Who needs a guitar pick when your fingers play like that!!! So says Austin Tx!!😎🍸
God gave Mark talented nose pickers for sure.
Mind blowing performance!
Two guys on keyboards. Both with five sets of keys at least.
Telegraph Road -Alchemy Live is just as good. Telegraph Road is actually part of the US Highway system, US #24. It runs 70 miles north and south along the Detroit border. Dire Straits were touring and were traveling down Telegraph Road when Mark Knopfer asked the tour bus driver about the city. After their conversation, Mark wrote the song. While the song originated in Detroit, it could easily be adapted to any once thriving city that has fallen on hard times and is now known its blight and decay.
I live in the western suburbs of Detroit. I used to have to travel Telegraph Road every day to get to Dearborn, MI to my auto supplier job. The commute was more stressful than my day doing accounting for Ford and Visteon. I am so glad those days are over.

Some other Dire Straits songs that are best with the official music videos are Brothers in Arms, Money for Nothing and Walk of Life.

Enjoy!
Epic legendary performance
*Pauses at 9 minutes into Sultans of Swing* "...A 10:46 song... with the best guitar riff thing I've ever heard, man."
Strap in, my dude. That impressive record is going to stand for about 30 more seconds. Then, the song beats its own record with the thing Mark's wife, who shares his humility and sense of humour, dismissively calls "that li'l twiddly bit at the end."
I'm so glad that the years of my life have basically overlapped with this man's global career. What a great thing his presence in the world of music has been.
@D Thank you...and this is Mark Knopfler (you reacted to the new song all comers) ^^
Voiceplay will be premiering their new video today at 11:30am est..... Classical Chaos.
It is absolutely fantastic and fun.
They brought back the characters from their "In The Hall of The Mountain King" video.
Treat yourself to Telegraph Road from same Alchemy concert. Perfection!
Full album Alchemy IS this level
Gold (Sultana of swing) is precious but platinum (Telegraph road) is more... because it's a symphony...one of the best in music.
Alchemy Live.... the BEST
Personally I have a real love connection with DIER STRAITS. My husband and I connect our romance with these guys so it's very special to us. The Album Alchemy in particular. ❤
A standout performance ,everyone in sync and at the top of their game including the crowd, a masterful performance, terry williams giving the drums six nil for ten minutes straight, one of the best. I love your reaction, surprised yourself in the best possible way
U found your boat D 👍🤘 i'm impressed how gentle he's playing the guitar...everytime
Great reaction dude check out telegraph road live and tunnel of love
The studio version of this is one of the best songs for cruising.
It's nice that you enjoyed it so much.
What I love about this clip is how much fun they're having.
Making a living like that wouldn't suck.🤑🤑
Shout out to the production crew. The filmography of this LIVE concert is incredible.🤩
@@williamjones6031 We must be doing the same thing watching these reactions. I've seen your comment a few times. Great performance and addictive.
@@toby9999 Every day is fine by me.😁
Same venue last song of the night 🎸Telegraph Road🎸 Mark switches to a resonator guitar🎸 the sound makes me weep! Thank you for reacting to 1 of my fav songs of all time. Will watch for your reaction to another of my fav songs by Dire Straits!
merci beaucoup a vous, mark knopfler une légende 🙏🙏🙏
Do another Dire Straits!
Wembley '85 performance is even better
Great Band! Everyone gets their time to shine and they are having fun. Mark makes his playing look so easy❤.
Don't forget to see and hear the outstanding performance of the drummer. Thank you 😅
Remind me on the Muppet Show😊
@@wietholdtbuhl6168 I know exactly what you're thinking about! What was the drummer's name? Such an analogy
Terry williams
@@janettehayati5445 Muppet Show Drummers Name?
They are a local band to me and arguably the best live band of all time - all outstanding musicians.
Thats how its done 👍❤🏴
Yes ezza...and we are just SO LUCKY it was recorded so well...and we now have the tech to get it out into the universe!! This music and performance connects to the heart and soul of humanity. "That's how it's done."
There is a Metal version of this by Leo Moracchioli at Leap Frog Records. You will enjoy it I promise.
we did it :) its here, yes it was a lot of fun
@@ReactionsbyD Sorry.. I'll go back and watch that one too. Love your reactions.
🎉🎉🎉 so good.
I love your reaction and reactions.
Yes,indeed I thought it was a shame that they decided to split this mighty rock band😔
In their Prime!❤
Telegraph Road
This is my morning drive song
I so wish they had a studio recording of this. Its a one off.
when you enjoy what your doing its hard to stop
mark on the red guitar is left handed and taught himself to play right handed and he dont use a pick
Same here! Im left handed but play right handed.☺️👍
