    Mark, the lead guitarist, is ranked at number 27 of the best guitarists, although I think he is the best. Mark is also left handed playing a right hand guitar. He s a total musical genius and nobody will ever sound like Dire Staits again [except Mark}. I had the pleasure of seeing them live and it was a pure adventure and they did 4 encores. The greatest bands play live and Dire Straits always add something extra keeping their audience in awe. Thank you for a great reaction

      Never list your favorite guitar player the same as anyone else's list. There's only one best for everybody. Be proud to say your own number one. No one else's opinions matter when it comes to music and musicians. That's all yours, enjoy it. That's what it's all for.

    • @Orbitalmercury

      Those lists are b.s.! I've seen Mark ranked as high as #8 & as low as #32. I've listened to a LOT of rock/metal to know he should easily be in the top 10 on every list!

  • @cmmarcoux
    @cmmarcoux 2 роки тому +38

    (14:00) I think the thing that's enthralling about some live performances like this one is that you've got a performer at the absolute peak and you see how completely in control he (in this case) is. You can tell from the grin on his face leading up to the outro guitar solo that he knows he's about to play a 3,000 note solo, and he knows he's going to hit all 3000 notes. And he's going to bend a lot of those notes to his well, and all of that's going to go perfectly. And even though every last person in the room knows the song and knows what normally comes next, he's still going to be able to surprise them with something better than they're hoping for. Whatever the genre, there's something about seeing masters who are in complete control. Dire Straits aren't my favorite band and Sultans isn't my favorite song, but Knopfler is so good you can't help but smile, watching him own that room.

    • @phoebelewis2788

    This is my leaving my house for work at 4am song. When a band blows away their studio effort with a live version there is nothing more satisfying. Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb one of those and David Gilmour near the end is hard to find but the 9 min live version has about 4 extra minutes of one of Davids most epic solos or his band mates solo not sure who plays electric and whom plays the acoustic

    Live Dire Straits was a force of nature and human brilliance the likes of which we shall never see again. Mark Knopfler was my personal guitar hero all through my adolescence. He plays fingerstyle-without a pick-but he could shred with the very best. Im 40 years old, so this made me strange among my peers. But when I started pulling off those riffs on my guitar, no one was laughing anymore.

    You get a shiver in the dark
    It's a raining in the park but meantime-
    South of the river you stop and you hold everything
    A band is blowing Dixie, double four time
    You feel alright when you hear the music ring
    Well now you step inside but you don't see too many faces
    Coming in out of the rain they hear the jazz go down
    Competition in other places
    Uh but the horns they blowin' that sound
    Way on down south
    Way on down south
    London town
    You check out guitar George, he knows-all the chords
    Mind, it's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
    They said an old guitar is all, he can afford
    When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
    And Harry doesn't mind, if he doesn't, make the scene
    He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright
    He can play the Honky Tonk like anything
    Savin' it up, for Friday night
    With the Sultans
    We're the Sultans of Swing
    There’s a crowd a young boys they're a foolin' around in the corner
    Drunk and dressed in their best baggies and their best Kings road
    They don't give a damn about any trumpet playin' band
    It ain't what they call Rock and Roll
    And the Sultans
    Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole
    Creole
    And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
    And says at last just as the time bell rings
    "Goodnight, now it's time to go home"
    Then he makes it fast with one more thing
    "We are the Sultans
    We are the Sultans of Swing

    I might have shared this with you already...
    My dire straight story.
    It was my second year at college in Boston, week of midterms, Tuesday or Wednesday I believe, 6:30 p.m. . A friend of two of my roommates comes in and says he has won two tickets via a radio DJ to tonight's "Brothers In Arms" tour show (1986) at the Boston garden and he can't find anyone to go with him because of midterms. The concert starts in about an hour and a half and these two guys both say no, he looks at me and says would you want to go? I responded in a heartbeat yes even though I had two midterms the next day. We picked up the tickets at the door. I couldn't believe it They were 6th row center on the floor. I've never been so close to a major rock and roll band for such a long time, it was absolutely unforgettable. His fingers fly, no pick... Folks didn't want to leave they came back out for a second encore song. It was really a very well done show. I didn't do all that well on those two midterms but it was worth it.

    First time catching your channel like the rolling comments, love to see younger people loving our era music, just watching you hear the changes you would have lost your bolts at their concerts, it is a life changing experience,a true right of passage for us 70s 80s youths, this is a lesson in musicianship, showmanship,and respect for their fans. Thankful of growing up in the UK during this fantastic musical era.I believe your synopsis of the clarity and exuberance of the live performance is spot on, this just goes another 5 levels on the studio version.🍻👍

    The clapping of the audience in the breakdown is legendary - totally becomes part of the performance.

    I always thought the drumwork in this song was underrated.

    Dire Straits were huge especially in the 80’s, I have wonderful memories seeing them countless times, amazing live concerts, Mark Knopfler along with David Gilmour of Pink Floyd are 2 of my favourite genius guitarists
    PS: You should react from the same concert their song Telegram Road it’s a masterpiece

    The studio version was one of the first tracks they ever cut as a band. It's amazing, but they were a four piece at the time: just guitars, bass, and drums. By the time of this performance they had added the keys, and been recording and touring constantly for five years. This is one of the great live acts of the era at the top of their game.

    Dire Straits were brilliant. “Love over Gold” was the very first CD I bought, back in the days when CDs cost £20 each, and a CD player was £300! (1985).

    Knopfler was rad. This is an all-time song. Get in the car, roll 'em down and pump up the volume and drive fucking drive, boy.

    Working class lads from the north of England...I grew up with the Beatles, Genesis, Floyd and pretty much all the great bands through the 60s and 70s, then came Dire Straits...🥰 man, you gotta love them...and that difference you mention between the studio and live versions? That's like the difference between a book and a film version..the books always better 😊
