This is so magical live. The studio version did not hint at how great Hill Farmer's Blues is when played line. The instruments all blend, and that sublime guitar solo could go on forever. I've sat within about 10 feet of him doing this and to see his fingers work is amazing.
Damn, I can feel the envy is creeping up on my me. What an absolute magical experience that must've been. Probably life changing. Good on you my friend👍🙂 This song is a masterpiece.
Saw him play this masterpiece in 2008 (standing front row), 2010 (best version, also standing front row), 2013 and 2015 in Amsterdam: it was divine, every single time.
Mark is 71 years old now and still going strong God Bless him he is the best musician ever! May we have many more wonderful year's of his awesome music.Thank you Mark for lighting up our World 🌎
If there is a special spirit in the music world, it's Mark Knopler. Thank you Sir for making the world a more pleasant place to be. God be you always on your journey.
Una dinamica impressionante e un suono unico. Quest'uomo accarezza la chitarra come si fa con una amante e le sensazioni sono incredibili. Grande Mark. Io c'ero ad Assago- Milano
You nailed it ....i am not well , missing my mum and daughter , in lockdown alone in Melbourne and his music is perfect , sentimental like me but with my mums country town feel
How sublime I love bagpipes it’s the Scotia in my blood and add this band!!!!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️👌❤️❤️👌👌👌❤️👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌Simply Beautiful no other words needed,,,,,,
Que dire de plus, le mieux c est d être dans la salle de concert et de les écouter en Live. Ce qui fut mon cas finalement le 2Juin de cette année au Zenith de Paris. Premier concert pour moi et plus que fantastique soirée !!! Merci Maestro Knopfler pour votre Musique enchanteresse!!
This isn't *nearly* long enough! I love the plaintive Irish pipes at the beginning, and the way the melody carries through the rest of the song ... almost as a haunting reminder. So well put together, so beautiful! I keep coming back to this!
@@neilmurray6815 Michael McGoldrick is an Englishman who plays a range of instruments associated with traditional Irish music... Irish flute, tin whistle, low whistle, uilleann pipes, and bodhrán among others instruments. And does it expertly. If Michael calls them Uilleann pipes on his Twitter bio, then I am not going to argue :-)
First heard Sultans of Swing as pre-show music at a concert in the Cambridge (UK) Corn Exchange in 1979 (I think!). I was hooked then and have become more and more hooked by every album he's released since. He writes great songs and, as a guitarist, is simply a genius of the highest order - one of those rare people you just know has made your life better by simply doing what he does the way he does it.
I was fortunate enough to win a prize back in 92 to go and see Dire straits in Sydney. Flown over from the UK in business class , all expenses paid. I was taken back stage about an hour before the show to meet the band which is still a highlight of my life. Mark sat with me and my partner for half an hour and treated us fantastically. I had two pints of beer too while he introduced us to the rest of the band. I just couldn’t believe how much time he had for us and how “ normal “ he was. I won’t forget it for as long as I live. Ps . Cal is a brilliant album. Top, top musician 👍🇬🇧.
Celtic music opens up my Slavic (Serb) soul and heart, and makes me cry for some lands I have never seen, but for which I feel nostalgia. Something that can't be explained through words. We are more connected than we are aware of, through history, and in present. I have much respect and love towards the Irish, Scots and other Celtic people. Plus our history has so much parallels. Keep and save your music, songs, language and culture for your future generations.
@@thomasdoherty6726 Glad to hear that the story has a happy end! :D The first thing that comes to my mind when I think of the Irish is the song, the happines, the joy of life. It cheers me up! Hard life (history) and the celebration of life at the same time is the paradox that is present in Serbian culture as well. :) Хвала Томас!
Come to the north of Scotland into the Highlands, play Mark knopfler in the car, you will get everything from that and much more, God bless you and your family 😇
Grazie Mark,solo Mark poteva scrivere ed interpretare una canzone così magica.Ogni volta che l'ascolto mi viene la pelle d'oca e brividi su per la schiena.Ti ho conosciuto nel 1978 e ancora adesso ,sentendo le tue canzoni mi emoziono.GRAZIE MARK DI ESISTERE.😊🎩🔝🔝🔝👑
@@timoakes450 More gently,i'm French,i'm cool! You don't like this song? I like this song! Just not the same point of view between you and me! This is a live version,not the original,so what! I like Knopfler since i'm 13 years,now i'm 50 !
Vôtre musique est sublimissime ! Ravie d'avoir le privilège de pouvoir vous écouter ! C'est ce que l'on attendait de moi, depuis mon adolescence, j'avais pourtant cette impression de ne pas être excellentissime ! Quelle déception personnelle ! Il fallait pourtant l'assumer , et c'est ce que j'ai fait, j'ai essayé pour le moins ! Quand on me félicitait, je sentais une frustration tout à fait personnelle , ce n'était pas facile à gérer du tout quand on est adolescent!
Yes, there is no one like Mark. No guitar playing like his, no voice like his to sing the songs that only he can write. I have followed him for decades and fall deeper into his spell. His music always will be a part of my life.
MK is a master in living performance, he is able to do amazing versions in each performance of its own songs.It's something that has always impressed me.
Usually when UA-cam adds random videos to your queue they're usually the exact same as the ones you're watching, and if they're not, they're usually trash. No idea how UA-cam went from Mark Knopfer to this, but I'm glad they did. Fantastic performance!
The bagpipes at the beginning are haunting.......the melody is so nice and soothing and kudos to the gentleman playing it. I also really like hill farmer blues. This whole set is magnificent!!!!
Incroyable !!!!! Mark chante et joue en même temps des solos de guitare entre les mots avec une facilité déconcertante et une nonchalance habituelle qui ne le quitte jamais...C'est ça le talent à l'état pur !!!!!
I can think of another guitar player with the range of MK. Wherever he plays, he IS the Local Hero. He always has an amazing crew with him too. Let's not forget that.
Hello,Sublime,top ........thanks mark😢🎉
Oh Mark, you made my day! It's wonderful. Thank you sooooo....
EVERY Mark Knopfler song is my favorite!
When the music is good it touches the soul🙏🏽
but the music is good only when the soul is good😅
I can’t imagine my life without Mark’s amazing music in it,
Fabuleux,l’histoire de la musique gardera pour toujours ce génie hors pair.Merci infiniment Mark 🎉

The uillean pipes at the beginning are played by Mike McGoldrick, who is a very talented multi-instrumentalist.
Think it’s the Northumberland pipes? Not 100% sure but think so
