    John came to my very modest home town in Essex to play live two years ago. He play his own tracks, stopped for a talk about life in Dire Straits for half an hour, then played some of the bands best tracks. After he signed our albums, chatted with us and showed us his guitars. It was the best live performance I’ve been to. A lovely bloke, we’re lucky to have him.

    It's a Long Way Back / Lyrics City of Angels was Burning bright Setting the scene for an LA night Standing on the edge of tranquility This was the moment to take in the view Shimmering with the red and blue Sun going down at the Sunset Marquee People you knew but never met Masters and maidens that slipped through the net Friends of friends of a certain kind Talk of the town a line in the news In the Gallery with a touch of the blues All you need is a six blade knife It's a long way back, It's a long way back to Deptford Town Sometimes it feels like these days will never end The push and pull of how we dance the messages we send Natures voice unheard amongst bluster and desire No one seems to notice that the flames are getting higher Which way is up no one can agree Keep asking myself where's the sense of harmony Smoke and heat of a hotel room Songs from the bard like rare perfume Fresh off the shelf now they're gone Nothing now will ever be the same Could this be heaven by another name Depends what side you're on If she asks you to go you can't decline Putting it down a line at a time Don't move too fast better taking it slow The world didn't start with the ticking of the clock Can't get by without a few knocks One by one blow by blow It's a long way back, It's a long way back to Deptford Town There's going to be a problem if we don't see eye to eye Only time will tell before another battle cry Take time to reflect take time to consider this For you and me and him and her this life of utter bliss Chorus Another actor another stage Who pays the pipers pay Let's hope he don't get lost Or tries to count the cost You face the world with quiet contempt Was this really what you meant When all is frozen and nothing pure Its make or break kill or cure I'm not sure anybody knows The way it is and how it goes Which way is up no one can agree Liberty fraternity Equality From New York city to Monterey New Orleans to Frisco Bay On every street in every town Out on the highway on with the show So much I just didn't know So I breathed it in took it down A gentle man with his gracious wife They had their dreams of a perfect life Worked the land until the sun went down They were lovers then in that market town The battle ground had left its legacy No words he spoke of this victory He built a world that was safe and sound Life was good in that Market town Take what you need not what you want There's no bars or restaurants No playing in the park no visits to the Zoo Relax my friend and let things be You have you're pride and honesty None of this was planned Or so they say But the sun will shine and the winds will blow This all will pass as well we know Once there was a river now it's a stream Looking back it feels like a dream Memories linger in your heart Life feel shot cos time flies Take a look through a child's eyes Now's the time to make a new start It's a long way back, It's a long way back to Deptford Town

    I bought my first guitar and started playing it in 1978 after listening to Dire Straits' first LP, I was 14 years old... I always continued to follow them and after their dissolution I continued to follow Mark Knopfler... I I was always wondering what happened to the other members of the original group, namely Pick Whiters, David Knopfler and John Illsley... so for me this video is a pleasant surprise, also this song is beautiful, it could easily be included posthumously in the first historical Dire Straits album since the atmosphere is the same! the story of Dire Straits was the rock fairytale par excellence of my adolescence... four friends with no money who live in a flat in Deptford, one teaches, one works in a record shop (Illsley), another works as a social worker and only Whiters had been a more well-known musician having played with Mal's Primitives... I will soon be 60 and a few years ago I started playing the guitar and writing songs again... in the songs I write and in my guitar you can hear a strong early Dire Straits influence!

    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 Then a crowd a young boys they're a foolin' around in the corner Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles 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've only just started listening to John Illsleys solo work and really like it, yes like some have said there's echoes of dire straits, particularly this song but there's lots of influences and he has a great cool voice too. Bass players never fully get the attention they deserve unless they lead singers too like geddy lee, Phil Lynott etc so it's nice to hear his voice and see him play backing guitar too on some stuff. It's a bit like Brian May doing solo stuff, people sometimes can't separate them from their famous bands to appreciate them doing solo stuff even when it's good.

    Hi John I was a massive Dire Straits fan and I bought one of the first CDs when I bought ' Love over Gold ' in 1982 . I saw you and the band live in Manchester in 1990 at Man City's ground. More recently in about 2016 I had a ticket to see you at the Met in Bury but missed it because I was hospitalised. I live in the beautiful Rossendale valley now , if you played in Blackburn or Burnley or anywhere near I could put right missing you that time.🎼😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🎸🎧😃
