Yes another sultans of swing version I can play 1000 times
Mark playing on his birthday
*One of those rare songs that broke the genre barrier. It didn't matter if you were a rocker, country fan, rap fan, etc. Everyone liked this song.* . . 👇 *Hope everyone finds inner peace* ❤
To think that the song was released in that same year, Mark Knopfler really created a masterpiece

He sure did. I don't think anyone would disagree. If they did, they'd be wrong.
What a beautiful surprise! Always a lovely emotion. That day was also Mark's birthday...

"Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in". From The Big Lebowski. That is Mark Knopfker, then and now.
Lovely Mark with his band ❤
♥ UNCONDITIONAL Mark 😍
Great song and the crowd looks so happy. I wish I was alive to experience this live. I just discovered this song a few days ago and I love it.
Great british song 🎵 👌 👏 👍
This live version, to my opinion, is one of the closest one to original recording. Mark has done dozens of live versions, Alchemy being the most famous one, and the licks between lyrics and the two solos have evolved though time. This one is so close to the original recording, small deviations only make it better. Yes first and second solo and the ending chords deviates slightly from original track but these licks will soon be used within complex solos of the Alchemy version, but still this version is like a hiddern treasure to me. On you tube, it is possible to find Dire Straits on live stage but playback'ing with original recrding but a trained eye and a guitar player can easily conclude that the soundtrack do not match his fingers. However this one is real and live and kicking. Thanks for sharing. Great song, great video...

Every version seems to be one step further away from the original. You can almost tell what year it was recorded by the variations.

This has been a favorite track of mine since it was released. Somehow I never get tired of hearing it.

Música linda 💕 eu em casa com o som alto só curtindo rsss
This album brings back some seriously good memories!
In this video we have the opportunity to see the band live using the same stage configuration present on the CD Live at the BBC, that unique timbre, notice that the guitar has a more "saturated" tone. The equipment is something inseparable from the history of Dire Straits, it could tell the story of the band through the prism of Mark's guitars, amps and effects used throughout the band's trajectory, it is exactly the presence of Fender Twin Reverbs in Marshall cabinets that will bring this such a peculiar sound present in this show, this configuration only existed between the end of May and August 78, in October 78 they would switch to Musicman amps, the first time we will see Musicman on stage is in 14.10.78 , Empire, Paris, France, the famous program Chorus tv, which brings another timbre and this is an important part of the sound alchemy of Dire Straits. Thank you for rescuing this precise record with an improved quality, for me this is the period of the band that fascinates me the most, the original formation.
Greatness!
A melhor banda que já existiu
Excellent 👍👍👍

Lindo viernes para todos

I know Mark ( The Genius ) is not as ''energetic'' today as he was back then , but there is always that question in my mind when i hear this song if it is possible for him to give all of us just one more performance like this . That would be incredible to see and hear. Mr. Mark Knopfler ... WE DARE / BEG YOU !
12 August, Mark's birthday... Beautiful performance for a special day ❤️❤️❤️
Lenda de banda...sou do Brasil...
4:37-4:40 Finally, we found someone that knows how to dance Sultans of Swing :)

This is actually live! Unlike anything today
To all of you saying alchemy is better. This was the original 4 piece band. It takes a band to create greatness, by the time alchemy was out Dire Straits was a stage opera and Mark could hire any studio musician to play any part (sax, petal steel, drummer/midi engineer, keyboard/keyboards. Once David left, the real Dire Straits was no more. I love Mark, been a fan since the beginning, i'm 68 and still trying to get his tone. i've played guitar since i was 13 and i have had or been in a lot of bands, but Dire Straits are the pinnacle of what i would want to reach!
