  • As a founder and ever-present member of legendary group DIRE STRAITS, John Illsley's back catalogue needs no introduction. In this fun, brand new interview, John talks all about his new autobiography including the contribution of Mark Knopfler, interesting details about his new album 'VIII' set for release late February and some very interesting news about possible unreleased Dire Straits material!

    Decent book by John Illsley seems like the sort of bloke you would like to have a pint with. Great memories from a great band, they must have had some staying power to get through those long tours.🎸👋

    It'd be nice to see the DS 'On the Night tour remastered in film and sound.

    yeah good interview. 8:35 I found 3 mistakes so far, regarding the concerts and details :-)

    • @ThePottel
      @ThePottel 2 роки тому

      quite a few mistakes, but that is to be expected, we are DS freaks, he just went from show to show and did not look back too much. it remains an enjoyable read

      @@ThePottel ha Pottel from MKNews forum, right? 16years ago at least... :-) Yes there are more mistakes, just finished the book. Interesting story about why Hal Lindes was made to leave, that was new for me and I think never mentioned before anywhere. (or?)

    I beg to differ with most of you. When Catherine Marshall was writing the story of her husband Peter Marshall's life she wanted to leave the legacy of a wonderful man. When she presented her first manuscript of the book to her publisher, after he'd read it he called her into his office and said, "You haven't even BEGUN to get inside the man Peter Marshall!"
    I'm afraid if l were the publisher of this book, l would have said something similar...

      I agree, a lot was glossed over but that was always going to happen I think.

    Il libro è scritto bene, però mi aspettavo che raccontasse di più (come da titolo) della band. Parla molto di sé, un pochino troppo secondo la mia opinione. Comunque, un libro da leggere sicuramente.

      Anch'io la penso così. Sembra solo la storia della sua vita. Letto una volta è più che sufficiente. Niente di che.
