I LOVE YOU GUYS! 😘
Mark Knopfler is one of the best guitarists of all time, hands down. Drummer killed it too!
Agreed, Mark’s brother is holding down a mean ass rhythm guitar
The drummer is Terry Williams and i think he is one of the most underrated drummers of all time
@@mr.smithgnrsmith7808 That's Hal Lindes, not David Knopfler.
@@darkpitcher5242 Man Band stalwart
The fact that he doesn't use a pick ... 🥰😭
One of the most under rated, and under appreciated guitarist ever.
In my opinion the best guitarist first class
@@david.l.petrie I don’t know about the greatest? Ever heard of Stevie Ray Vaughan?
Under rated, no. Under appreciated, yes.
Whole band right?✌️
Listen to Water of Love!!!!!+❤️😎✌️
Absolutely wonderful reaction to all round sublime musicianship. Terry Williams is the drummer, Hal Lindes on rythm guitar, Alan Clark on piano, and John Ilsley on base. The lead singer and guitarist is Mark Knopfler who also wrote all of their songs. He is an absolutely wonderful storyteller as well as obviously a magician on guitar with the most unique sound. I might suggest you react to Telegraph Road from the same concert (Alchemy live). It's an absolute masterpiece and for me the greatest rock song ever written. Their performance of it is absolutely breathtaking and really showcases the outstanding musicianship of the whole band. Loved your reaction. Thank you and best wishes from the UK. Take care.
Agree 100%- bang on Martin. And being an old Dave Edmunds / Rockpile fan- to get Terry Williams is a treat any day of the week. Peace from Canada.
Dire Straits is an incredible band. They personify the old poem, “the woods are lovely, dark and deep.” Some other favorites are Romeo and Juliet, Tunnel of Love, Heavy Fuel and anything off of the Brothers in Arms album.
I second Telegraph Road from Alchemy live

I absolutely agree with you about the amazing drummer, he's a beast. Every time I watch this performance, I'm totally focused and blown away by his drumming. It's like he's possessed with the drum demons or something.
Not only is this one of the best songs of one of the best bands of all times, it's also one of their best if not THE best performance of one of the best guitar solos ever! What makes the Dire Straits so great, is how different they were. Mark Knopfler is an incredible musician, his way of playing the guitar and his singing are so perfect, it's just unreal! The other musicians are of course very talented too, and this combination makes them my favorite band of all times! It's so sad that I was born much too late to see them live, but the solo stuff Mark does is great too and I couldn't imagine a life without his music. I'm so glad my dad showed it to me 12 years ago...
Not often you see everyone in the band enjoying themselves so much on stage, big up Terry Williams on the drums, hell of a performance
Is he Irish ,Terry

Your reaction: pure. Visible joy for music. Thank you.
Yes. This live version never gets old. I'm so glad you said something about the drummer. They have them in the back but this guy was the heart beat . Money for nothing, should happen If you can.
Was lucky to have seen Dire Straits in concert back in the day. The whole Alchemy album is worth a listen.
Saw them in 85, the Brothers in Arms tour. Stevie Ray Vaughn opened for them. One of the best concerts I've ever seen!
One of the very best guitarists. A cool guy with no ego
The band was playing HOT. Terry Williams on the drums, and Mark Knopfler on guitar and vocals. Knopfler is one of Britain's top guitarists, with a unique and easily recognised sound. Try their song "Telegraph Road", or for some shivers down the spine, the amazing "Private Investigations".
I love your reaction and really love how you honestly appreciate everyone's contributions. They're all exceptional but put together they're a hell of a lot better. I love Mark's singing but appreciate Alan on the keyboard and the drummer too.
Gotta respect Mark for his finger picking 🎸 playing. He's not as fast as it appears but if you watch closely when he's using his thumb he's also using his finger or fingers too to get extra out of the strings. It's almost like he's playing 2 guitars at the same time so he puts out more than than a regular slower guitarist does. They're all Sultans of swing for sure.
Terry Williams does not get the praise as a drummer he deserves, he is absolute fire 🔥
I learned percussion before I learned guitar. This drummer is FIRE! And YES, this is a masterpeice! We love you!
Damn right. The talent, the musicianship. Insane performance. Start your Dire journey now. You will enjoy it. They got NO bad songs, only good and better!
THEY KILLED IT! The entire band as a whole. Every member, epic performance. As long as this rendition was, it wasn’t long enough.
You look transfixed ! Great guitar player with a unique style. All round great performance by the whole band ! You should also check out Dire Straits live performance in Dortmund in 1980.
So happy to see you back. This is a great track 👍
What an epic concert! Can you imagine playing with that venue energy?! You could see the artists were loving it.
Your facial expressions were of astonishment. Loved it. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love that you reviewed this -- and the Alchemy version, no less. The studio version is good. The Alchemy version is, as you said, one of the best live performances ever. Mark Knopfler is the guitarist/lead singer and yeah, the man is ridiculously talented. The final two minutes or so of him just going wild gives me chills every time. I also always love when John Ilsey (the bassist) and Hal Lindes (backup guitar) bring things way down and then slowly escalate it to a crescendo over the course of about a full minute. A lot of people who watch this performance are blown away by Terry Williams, the drummer, and I agree, he's going bonkers in this. He had only replaced the band's original drummer, Pick Withers, the previous year, so he was still pretty new at this point.
I remember the story that when in London enjoying some live music, Meat Loaf couldn't believe it when he found out the Guitarist on stage that night was actually "Guitar George" from this actual song.
RIP Meat. 💔
It was filmed in July 1983 at Hammersmith Odeon, London
I was there, just turned 18 (I thought I was 17, but it was a few days after my 18th)
You don't realise until you watch it back how special it was.
Terry Williams on the drums is very underrated, he was awesome!
You want to react to Telegraph Road from the same concert, its unbelievable!
Thanks for reacting to this❤❤
You were proper getting into that one, I could tell. People always tell me that my facial expressions say a lot, but I think you have me beat on that one! And I mean that in the best possible way. 😊
Lovely to see new videos from you, as always
Love your reaction!! I was in Paris in 1985 with my Sony Walkman 😂 seriously, but I forgot to bring any cassette tapes! So I went in a store and bought Dire Straits live double cassette, and listened to it the whole time I was there. Mark Knopfler, the singer/guitarist, is brilliant!! The way he adds lead moments throughout breaths in the vocals is so tasteful. Listen to Romeo and Juliet. It’s not only gorgeous, but the lyrics make me cry, and are so well written!
Totally agree with you about the drummer Terry Williams. I absolutely love the drumming on this version.
I could watch that drumming at 3:27 in loop for hours and never tire of it...he was killing it...! And the keyboard player playing air guitar at 4:28...he was having such a great time in his little own world.
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 your living like that wouldn't suck.
Shout out to the production crew. The filmography for this LIVE concert was incredible.🤩
oh my gosh my heart is pounding with joy to see younger generations enjoy my generations music. the look on your face is priceless! i was jammin right there with you!!
thank you :) Peace & Love to you
Great smile! Nice reaction! I love seeing young people like you discover, appreciate and enjoy music that is truly worthwhile. There is still hope. Keep on rocking! 🤘
Your facial expressions were of astonishment. Great . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You should be in movies Pink. You have the face of an angel. Nice to see you enjoying yourself to possibly the finest performance in rock history. The drummer was insane, but Mark on the guitar was even better.
Love everything about this one, not the least how the drummer Terry Williams damned near steals the show from one of the best guitar players in the world.
Terry Williams really pushed the envelope with that set - at times he almost over-drummed but pulled back, and even got a wry smile from Mark and John during the set.
Props to Terry on the drums!
Great reaction.
I love that you let the song ride. Alot of other reactioners will pause the song at crucial times that kill the vibe/flow.
His band is incredible and this is one of the top 50 rock songs of all time
THAT was a BAND. Every Dire Straits song is a duet between Mark Knopfler and his guitar. My favorite is "Romeo and Juliet."
Your smile at 9 minutes was amazing. Always loved the way Dire Straits play Sultans live and I get the same buzz, the buzz you got clearly got, when it starts kicking in about then 😁
The very best of British music right there!
The first time I heard this song I was like what did I just hear. Every time I listen is like a new experience. Great pick pink.
Mark Knopfler is such an underappreciated guitarist!!!
That drummer is a beast! From what I understand, his parents were in the audience that particular night, and seeing their son play for the first time. I may be wrong about that but I think that is the fact.
Definitely one of the best drummers I’ve seen great reaction!!
Fantastic reaction 👌👍👍👍...and the drummer, absolutely unreal 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good to see you back Pink!
There are great guitarists, and then there are guitarists who’s sound is so unique you can identify them by their sound alone. Mark Knopfler is one of the very few in the latter category. If you’re interested in hearing another, check out Wilco, Impossible Germany live on KCRW
John Fogerty too
@@scotmarechaux2706 Tom Morello, Tim Henson, Jimi Hendrix all come to mind. Stevie Ray Vaughan…
Every great guitarist is instantly recognizable. If you listen to lots of different styles of music from lots of eras you will know dozens of distinctive guitarists.
No need to use tons of overdrive/gain , which a lot of guitarists do to hide mistakes….just clean, precise finger picking. Awesome
If want more like that then telegraph road from the same concert (alchemy live) is awesome as well 😉
That’s my favorite alchemy live.
Great reaction...I agree one of the best live performances you'll ever see, and very true we can dispel with the drummer jokes on this one he absolutely killed it. 👍
Stumbled on your channel from a reaction montage. New subscriber and absolutely LOVE your channel! First 2 videos I watched were both Pink Floyd songs....Time and Wish You Were Here. You are a beautiful soul!!!
Thank you for subscribing and enjoying music with me ❤
This reaction video truly enhances the music, making it even more enjoyable and engaging. It stands out because it doesn't overshadow the music with excessive verbosity, but instead focuses on highlighting its beauty and impact. It's a testament to the power of the reaction in elevating the overall musical experience.
You watch and listen to music like a musician. It appears you hear everything and completely get and feel the emotion and vibe of the performance. AND you are so lovely. I, through you experience this anew. Thank you. Love the scrunchy face.
that's the word: a Masterpiece.
One of my favorite Dire Straits songs is "Skataway" you'll love it.
Glad you enjoyed Mark and his boys sweetheart.
Great reaction! Also my favorite of all times.Amazing drummer for sure.Hi from Houston Texas!
Pink that is Mr Terry Williams!! He was nothing short of magnificent!!! He drove this song exactly the way mark wanted it to…he is definitely in a class of his own!!! By the way you look beautiful 😘😘😘
Be sure to revue Dire Straits 'Brothers in Arms', you'll be speechless. Totally different.
Absolutely loved your facial expressions .
whaow! that drummer is on fire!
Thank you for enjoying them as much as we did
Great reaction videos.. Consider these two Elvis movies .. What Now My Love and Suspicious Minds
and the new Elvis movie just search Elvis 2022 it will be Epic
That should say movie trailer.. Elvis 2022
Elvis doing "Can't Help Falling in Love with You"from Blue Hawaii
Wow PinkMetalFead you look lovely tonight, This one of my all time favs
It's always great to see you, so happy to see you back again! Love Dire Straits! Mark Knopfler's guitar playing is so masterful!
Great reaction to a masterpiece an lesson in musicianship! Everyone is on fire, but great of you to shout out to the drummer who went bit for bit with Mark! All of them are tight and most of all have fun, and so do we!
One of my favorite bands, Mark Knopfler is so brilliant and he's still going strong on his solo journey. Lots of great songs from Dire Straits, keep it going. "BROTHERS IN ARMS" is a masterwork of theirs with a totally different vibe. You'll love it. (And so will your subscribers!) :)
Some music just makes you happy!
OMG Your reaction is Amazing !!! Love and Kisses !!!!
No concession to bullshit, just pure authentic sound.
Great performance and reaction video. I would suggest that you watch Brothers in Arms from the Mandela Concern. A spine chilling performance of a hauntingly beautiful song.
A great respectful reaction. For your encore, watch "Tunnel Of Love" from this same concert, it is a mini opera. "Twisting By The Pool" is another one which will bring a smile to your face. In their heyday they were one of the biggest bands in the world. Mark Knopfler is one of the great guitarists and too often under appreciated. When the really great ones play, you can pick them from their distinctive personal style (i.e. BB King, David Gilmour, Carlos Santana, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix). I bought the cassette of this concert when it was first released and wore it out, thankfully the cd has lasted much longer.
Did you catch the subtle humor of the line, "Way on down south ... in London town."
Yes it was an unbelievable masterpiece of art. IMHO it was the epitome of Western civilization or at least popular music,
Most underestemated band ever.
Love your reaction, i now pronounce you a dedicated Dire Straits fan......Many will agree that they were the best live band in the world.
Wow! That was mind blowing!
I agree about the drummer. They always work the hardest but in this song that guy never rest. Totally awesome.
One of my all time favorites
Terry Williams drumsticks were on fire, that night!
Mark can sure make that guitar cry and sing.
We'll, darlin', you got it!
Lucky to have seen the Alchemy Tour in Paris 1983 and I bought my first DS LP in 1979, it was Communiqué.
MASTERPIECE
Keep the band on the screen!
I had to do that because of copy right reasons :( UA-cam continued to block my video from uploading without periodically putting the band off the screen. Sorry for the inconvenience
@@PinkMetalHead I understand. That's such a shame - if anything you are actually promoting the music of the band.
Have you reacted to Pink Floyd performing "Comfortably Numb" at the Pulse concert.? Another epic guitar solo plus a brilliant drummer.
Terry Williams the best rock drummer of his time.
Good to see you're still doing reactions. You're one of the first few reaction tubers aren't you?
When musicians played. And it was so awesome. Thanks for your great reaction. So nice to see your appreciation. 💕
Love this accurate reaction (after giving full attention to the music and not pausing), very sympathetic woman. Thank you for sharing and all the best! It makes me happy to see young people appreciating and recognizing the genius of Dire Straits. Surely all members are exceptional musicians, including one who is almost never mentioned, Hal Lindes, who does an incredible job on rhythm guitar, too.
Beautiful reaction! And this is probably the best I've ever heard from Dire Straits. Love Sultans of Swing.
The Grateful Dead has some amazing concerts! Definitely suggest listening and watching some of their live performances!
Oh yeah.......drummers are the best!! Your reactions are just as awesome, love it!!❤❤
Big hats off to the drummer, amazing stuff.
ALways a joy to see a new generation enjoy some of the music I grew up with. Mark Knopfler is an amazing guitar player. Love this on open speakers surround sound.
Procul Harum A Whiter Shade of Pale live in Denmark
RIP Gary Brooker
love your reaction
Always loved this song,and your reaction to it is adorable.
You reminded me of myself when I first saw Dire Straits perform (not live at that time) but they did an Aussie tour and visited my home city. I'm a really old bloke now, but just like you, I was mesmerised. Finger-pickin' Mark and you're right, the drummer killed it... so enjoyable.
You are totally on point. 👍🤘
YES! so glad you did this one!
