I remember when my dad finished restoring his 1965 Corvette he took me out on the first drive, and when he pulled onto the highway he put this song on it’s a memory I’ll never forget the sound of the V8 and the sound of Dire Straits one of my all-time favourite moments with my dad
mój syn nigdy nie miał takich chwil z tatą, pozdrawiam
What a core memory to have, holy shit

Awesome!
I love seeing Clapton just smiling, having a great time lol. All the good feels.
Yes, it's so awesome seeing them together on stage! Two absolute legends
@@FVT-tn8ji came back for the reply; stayed to listen to the song yet again lol. Thanks for reminding me haha.
Yes! And the fact he isn’t upstaging him shows great musicianship and mutual respect for each other as players
Talking guitars.
To all you hip-hopper samplin' rock stars out there.. Watch this !!
This is what real talent looks and sounds like.
Still loving this on 02-21-2024….. Never gets old!
Intro to Money for nothing is one of the damn best guitar riffs ever played...just genius
not one of the best, it is the best by far.
if you think about it, it reminds me very briefly of smoke on the water, except money for nothing is the grandmaster while smoke on the water is the new student.
@@TheBlackfall234 I think it's the other way round dude...
@@mark-wh2qc the smoke on the water riff is simple and easy as fuck.
The money for nothing riff reminds me of i can't get no satisfaction by the stones. Just with a few extra notes.
I love the riff. But smoke on the water is the greatest riff ever written and one of the reasons is because it is so simple. Money for nothing is a fantastic song and the riff is amazing don't get me wrong. But smoke on the water is easily the most recognizable riff ever made alongside back in black by ac/dc
How good are you at playing guitar?
"Eric Clapton plays rhythm for me"
Beat me to it
@Henry Tudor you dont get it, dont you?
Hahaha, excellent :-)
he playd solo
hey i understood that reference!
Jeez.....you can feel the POWER coming out of that crowd cheering when he first dropped that riff!
What a rush that must have been to be there!
So glad my parents raised me on classic rock, we’re keeping these songs alive mfers!!
Damn right!
Everyday i'm grateful for this.
Yeah buddy
Everything about that intro lick and the slick look over to Eric like, “your turn bro” is just epic.
Children, this is what music sounds like!
There are not many opening guitar riffs that alone make the crowd go wild. This is one.
Tbh there are a ton of opening riffs that make the crowd go wild
Mian has a point
There kinda is
Which is why I still go to John Mayer concerts because the guy throws up ridiculous intro solos. Hes one of the few in todays era that does it still.
Layla at MSG 1999
One of the most iconic and memorable guitar riffs in Rock 'n Roll history. Mark is a master on the guitar. Keep Rock'n Mark!
Ты прав. Респект из России
as a bassist, this song is also one of my favourites. A beautiful groove underneath that is simple but allows plenty of space for the real hook of the song to come through the guitar parts.
The beginning where the wind is blowing against him is legendary
Epic winds be thar

@@kd7zhz9 pppnlonnn onn6788
It was damm windy. You can see Pink Floyds circular projection screen folded in the roof, was too windy to lower & use it later. 😕
Him and Clapton wearing suits being total badasses is classy af
Mark is apparently terrific here and I absolutely adore how Eric is simply strumming in his own style like he doesn't care for the world.
These people are badasses.
Mark in Eric magnifs
No matter how cool you are, you'll never be as cool as Mark Knopfler playing the intro to Money For Nothin against the breeze.
Phenomenal. Mark Knopfler is one of the best of all time talents
It's so refreshing to see two legendary guitarists on the same stage, Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton
I was a massive fan in the eighties and saw them at Man City's ground in 1990. I only saw this performance recently and think it's absolutely brilliant The audience are absolutely lapping it up aren't they😃🎧🎸🏴🏴😁
Guitar God's🙏
Yes....I was shocked when I saw Clapton.
I thought that was Clapton!!! I didn’t believe my eyes. 👍
@@panamacitybeachbum they often back each other up. Both amazing. Been a fan from way back in their beginnings
This is the best performance of Money for Nothing, I've ever heard. I just can't express, how much I love this masterpiece!

Hell ya
who is only 16 years old here?
I love Mark! And I love that he has Eric up there playing too!
I loved this video and watched it whenever I had free time. I am 80 years old last April.
0:40 best part, says “here it goes now” then just casually begins to play one of the greatest riffs ever written. incredible. that’s the way ya do it!
Difficile de ne pas apprécier Mark Knofler quand il interprète cette sublime chanson à merveille 😃❤️🎤🎸
I love the arrangement of this. It still has a build up before the opening riff but with guitars and the “I want my MTV” line comes at the end of the song. Plus we get to see Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton playing together. It’s probably my favourite version.
To see two guitars legends performing together playing an absolute classic like Money For Nothing is amazing.
@Henry Tudor 2 of the best in the WORLD
Henry Tudor dont forger jimmy page and Andy summers
Henry Tudor dont forget david gilmour
@Henry Tudor Jeff Beck ?
Agreed.
That opening riff between Mark and Eric is brilliant. and when Mark says " here it goes now" and starts 'Money For Nothin' WOW ! the crowd go crazy ! look at the face of the band member behind Mark in the blue jacket when he starts that says it all ! what a fantastic opening . Classic !
Gives you goose bumps!!❤
@@beverlysaragusa1954 I can't stop replayin it! It's amazing
@Liquidd Me, too, keep going back to this!! Goose bumps every time!!!! ❤
Deux énormes guitaristes
@Steve Miller
yes . i agree ! especially the blonde in the crowd, she's loving it !
I'm 67 and these guy's are 100 percent Rock...😎
April 9th, 2024, and still diggin' OUR MUSIC!! Oh yeah, I'm 72!
Young pup here, 64 and still digging our music.
That great knopfler sound. Can't be beaten
he drops the hottest riff on that crowd and looks cool as ice doing it...such an iconic sound with that half-cocked wah and his finger style playing. I can only explain this as a guitar player: there are heavy riffs like Enter Sandman or Paranoid, and then there are heavy riffs like this. To me, this riff is SO heavy - doesn't need a ton of distortion or a full stack of Marshalls, just some seriously percussive and precise playing. It's like Smoke On The Water on steroids!
One of my favourite riffs, I always say it goes SO HARD, and I'm a big metal fan as well! I'm gonna try to learn it soon and see if I can accomplish the impossible of getting close to the accidental tone setup
Well put
Absolutely. There are some riffs that are innately heavy. Some of the heaviest riffs I have ever heard were from acoustic songs.
These guys knew how to make music. Absolute legends. There is nothing out there today that would come close to this raw un digitalised music. Never aged.
True, Mr!😢
These posts are so dumb. Can't you just enjoy your music without denigrating other people's music? Give it a rest.
⁹ó😊@@AdelsonDePaulo
What’s with old people being unable to enjoy anything without trying to convince everyone that it was better back in their day
Im 17 and Absolutely agree! The majority of music today sucks. Occasionally you will find something good, very rare though
by far the best live version for sure everything about this is perfect! the way knopfler just glides into the beginning lyrics is so cool
That smile on Eric's face when Mark started the solo❤
Thanks for lifting my spirits I'm bangin' on the bongos like a chimpanzee
What a great fucking song!
one of the greatest of all time
Gabriel Meneghetti
Is it? Personally I have never fucked whilst it has been playing, so I would know! 😁 Great track tho, you're right....
Simply great. Unforgettable.
Two of the best guitarist of our generation right there.
Who is in the pink suit?
@@magnoliapondsmaxtaylor1488Clapton
I’ll be 68 + 1 in March ( 2024 ). I love watching Dire Straits. I watch all their videos especially ‘ Money for Nothing ‘
and ‘ Sultans of Swing ‘ when they were almost teenagers up till their older ages now. I explained Money for Nothing to my 18 year old daughter. Amazing how music can impact you. Thanks U-Tube, Mark of Dire Strats, Beth Hart, Joe Bonamassa, Jethro Tull, and ALL the other great bands I listen to every night in bed. Thanks to all !!
It's Mar 15... happy birthday 🎂🎈
Finest live version... smooth..this song never grows old
What a fantastic band ,Dire Straits have been....
This version lacks heart. It doesn't sound like anything close to their potential.
@@bubbs313Yeah I was gonna say this sounds like a country fair band covering the song like they could care less about it.
one of the best versions indeed.. 10 on the 1-10 scale.
If you're watching this in 2021, I love you and you're not alone.
All the best bro!
Thank you best to you
Can't stop watching, epic performance. All the best.
this rabbit hole is gonna be deep...
This is a master piece at its best bro it may be 2050 it will still be watched by people just like bethoven's piece
Such amazing writing. That first solo of his was so damn musical, I can’t put it to words.
Who have attended the concert are fortunate!
The look clapton gave to Mark when beginning the iconic riff, it's like saying alright hell yeah let's go.
I am 80 yrs old. Liked Dire Straits fifty years ago on radio, record,tape, etc. In just the last year I heard their concert versions of Sultans and Money. They are far superior to their old studio recordings. What a band!
I,m from Russia, it, s so amazing band! Love Dire Straits!
ม
i'm trying to catch you 66, keep rockin!
oh man, hope I can be still dancing 16 years from now!, congrats
its impressive that you liked them before they existed
2024 and still here, 77 years old and counting !
70 for me
Bruh, that’s crazy. 22 here 😂
Now Brian Walker is a different story he gave me back every boy yeah I grew up with some of his music and numb in Vietnam
38 here- by far one of the best jams of all time.
19 here. Rock N‘ Roll Baby
64 and still listening,what an absolute brilliant band.
75 and still going.
Even after almost 40 years it still kicks me up.
You gotta be legend to look badass in an orange or pink suit.
Or brown
Well said mate!!
Angus Young is in his 60s still wearing a schoolboy uniform and looking like the coolest dude ever. How they do it is just a mistery hahah
hahahaha
Lots tan to me.
Knopfler and clapton on the stage at the same time!! What eles could you ask for 🤙🏻
who is the other guitar player?
Maybe it's just me but live performances of already great songs ALWAYS feel and sound better
Just because we are old now, we don't stop listening to the music we grew up with. Glitter stars & all
Mark Knoplfer is a genius!
Gabriel Azevedo #ConTV true
Gabriel Azevedo #ConTV vc parece com bandjido ilícito
God
Sheer brilliance!!
Super gênio
What a performance, one of the best riffs of all time. The crowd knew their assignment, the claps on beat less than a line in gave me chills.
It was wild seeing how a riff like that can cause a group of people to immediately get after it in tandem!!
The energy is electric/the writing is altogether original, and Mark and Eric together are uniquely adapted to each other and the music!
This is one the most badass performances in the world, in any field of work! Heroic, too!
You know you’ve made it in rock and roll when Eric Clapton plays rhythm to your lead.
Eric Clapton is an overrated guitar player.
@@notbadforanoob8725 : Sarcasm or ignorance will get you nowhere. Did you just wake up and make this comment? You poor soul.
@@notbadforanoob8725 my god. No.
@@notbadforanoob8725 can I buy weed from you? That s*** is potent.
@@coutinhothrash666 Yes. He is absolutely overrated. The best shit he did was with Cream. Rafael Coutinho, are you portuguese? Let me guess, you probably have the most basic portuguese guitarhead taste. Metallica, Pantera, Sepultura, SRV, that kind of shit? Yeah, basic garbage. You probably heard Layla in high school and someone told you Eric Clapton was amazing, and you have just held that opinion since then, without ever questioning it.
Always Loved his songs and never forgot them. I can sing word for word with him. I am 72 years old.
Ray Cooper is the coolest guy in all of rock and roll.
No fireworks or other extraneous show crap. This is what I call "Standing and Delivering". Not just the great hand skills, the rhythms are perfect.
Agree 100%.
ua-cam.com/video/2ftmauGQqnE/v-deo.html
Hand skills lol
Totally agree!!
Lasers , smoke effects , tons of near - naked dancers . etcetera .. just my humble opinion.. all placebos to brainwash the audience in attendance into believing that they are getting 'quality' , actual musical 'entertainment ' .. when it's just to obscure the fact that it's mostly slop .. by mainly talentless , slop artists .. just a bunch of headache - inducing , sickening to the stomach noise .🤢🤮🤕. and the sheep believe the hype .🐑🐑🐑🐽🐽🐽. hammered into the dead brained masses.🐽🐽🐽💫💫💫. getting continuously ripped off .. sad.. quality music.. is gone from today . even the female artists .no matter the genre .. . perform nearly naked .. they can't carry the tunes accurately either .. no high notes singing now ..mostly all have become incapable .. all hype .. no true substance .. and at crazy high prices too .😆😮🙄😖🤑🤑🤑. .. deaf and blind sheep.. dummies ...
0:36 I love how Clapton just decided to make the string tuning sound and call it a day.
Two the greatest guitarist on one stage.
Heaven on stage 🎉
Made me think twice, "wait Clapton wasn't in DS was he?"
@@heypistolero No 🌹
He was then 😂@@heypistolero
Golden times when people listened to the music and paid attention to the show instead of trying to film everything with their phone.
I wonder what happened to all these people. Such as the backup singers, bass player, drummer etc. This was such a marvelous moment in time, Mark and Eric were superb. What a memory! Thank you to each and every one of them for putting their all into it!
Tessa Niles one of the backup singers.....still going strong.
I wonder what happened to all these people in the crowd. One moment in time brought them all together enjoying timeless music.
Magic fingers Mark Knopfler and the forever fingers of the exceptionally exquisite Eric Clapton is a rock history epic of the most grand value
I am and always will ❤love this era I’m 59 years old and grew up listening to this great human being himself and he is a true musical artist
It's 2023 and I'm still watching and listening never get old just really great rock
Yeahhhh!!! We Are HERE!!!❤❤❤
Wish I could travel back in time just to watch this show.
Wish I was there
Gabriel Meneghetti me too man..... and no Back no more!
Gabriel Meneghetti super

I' love EUA, and Texas.
I'm Brasílian, Goiás!!!

Music in perfection. Two if the greatest guitarists of all time performing the greatest rock riff of all time is just amazing.
Best live "money for nothing" of all time!
Notice how they all smile when he starts that lick, like all of us do. What a crazy superpower.
A person must be on top of the world to have “Slow Hand” playing back up for ya. Two greats on the stage together. Almost impossible. Hope Eric is in good health, not so a while back. Bravo to the whole stage!
Those backup singers singing "I want my MTV" at the end are just amazing!
you got the right
Those aren’t back-up singers. They’re Katie Kissoon and Tessa Niles.
@@timtam6442 I saw Niles and Kissoon with Clapton at the Albert Hall back in the 90s when Knophler played regularly with him. The percussionist is Ray Cooper who has also been with Clapton for years. Clapton often had Andy Fairweather-Low with him as rhythm guitarist. You can hear Kissoon sing a solo on the live version of Wonderful Tonight. This is great rendition of Money for Nothing.
There’s nothing like Dire straits out there ! The music Knopfler created has nothing to compare to it. UNIQUE SOUND UNIQUE VIBES UNIQUE LYRICS .. cause Knopfler is a genius .
Agree
THAT GUITAR!!!!!❤
Two of the best guitarists ever!
Марк, мы помним тебя. Спасибо тебе за твое творчество.
They talk to each other through guitar❤❤
One of the coolest riffs of all time
still watching and listening in 2021... who's with me?
I'm with you
me ... in 2021/03/18.
Wish I could give a thumb up every time I watch this
me ... on 2021/03/21 - 17:18 - Portugal/Cascais ... They are the Best of the best.
hello, watching from the philippines... they are one of my favorite musician.
The fact that the clapping starts in unison is one of the most amazing things ever.
Mark Knopfler is a legend
I'm 20 and wish I had lived in this times of golden music
It was a lot more fun before the Internet showed up.
you would be old now.
@@mikeorclem Yeah, but he has to suffer 'Drake', whatever that is
Enjoy catching up here on UA-cam man. None of us could ever get to all the performances like this. Or Prince playing While My Guitar Gently Weeps. But here they are. Its a damned rock time machine!
We all thought that it would never end...
Every time Mark gonna sing in different way and u gonna love all, legends never die
Thanks, UA-cam for letting us all continue enjoying these priceless moments.
Great Band. Still listening in 2024.
He is incredible with that guitar! Just incredible!
M. Knopfler and E. Clapton two icones of guitar always together.
Love this song since I was a baby❤
Manager: How badass do you want to look?
Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton: Yes
They both look great and sound phenomenal!

Seeing Eric and Mark playing together is a pleasure.

The best 2 guitar players ever lived.
ONE OF THE BEST GITAR PLAYERS I HAVE EVER HEARD. WHAT A FANTASTIC BAND.
"You know how it goes now..." *PROCEEDS TO SHRED*
ABSOLUTE LEGEND
That's gotta be one of the most beautiful guitars ever
I am 99 years old. I am in dire straits.
Then you are the Sultan of Swing
✊🏻✊🏻
Держись бро, привет с Сибири!
Leave the drugs.
It's the kind of jam that if you try to listen to it at night, laying in bed, you just might fall off in excitement and crack your head.
Fabulous guitar riffs. Simply, in my opinion, one of the greatest
R&R songs of all time!
Nothing beats the sound of an electric guitar.
That is SO true. They harmonize with your bones
Duas lendas no mesmo palco ! Que banda , que som ! Viva o Rock eternamente 🎵
MALDITA LEYENDAAAAA ❤
Man Mark is so cool. I love how he simply enjoys the performances of his colleagues. At the beginning, when he's finished with his part, Eric starts his part - he's delighted! Also, when they sing "Li-ttle finger"! I think he must have been a great guy to work with!
Ask his brother, David Knopfler!
Самая запоминающаяся композиция этой культовой группы, однозначно они шедевры своего времени.
ну да - красвчеги)))
У Марка всё ЧУДЕСНО
