Mark Knopfler smiling in admiration at the Every Brothers & in Awe at Chet Atkins is priceless.

I agree!

Mark sitting in the back and just smiling as he watches Chet Atkins and the Everley Bros play his song. Great moment and just shows the respect mark shows to fellow musicians, no showboating or trying to interfere with the moment.

This song is simply stunning and look at that stage full of music talent. Even Michael McDonald back there on piano. The Everly's Chet Atkins, and genius Mark Knopfler. Geez. Fantastic pick Agnete and reaction Harri.

Thank you so much 😍🤩

Don't forget Chet Atkins, country legend one of Mark's guitar heroes!

Mark Knopfler wrote this song specifically for the Everly Brothers. So many legends on one stage!

Not quite true as he wrote it for his album ( I mean BiA) but what's true he had The Everly Brothers in mind while writing it

Hi love the everly brothers and have such great harmony and great to see them on this song ,thanks for sharing ,

This is from Chet Atkins "Certified Guitar Player" a TV show that featured Mark throughout. It is on YT in it's entirety and has several other recognizable musicians. Well worth an hour of a well lived life. Great reaction as always.

Chet Atkins, Mark Knopfler, The Everly Brothers, Michael McDonald (keys), David Hungate (bass) all mix for an absolute masterpiece. This is simply beautiful.

What a wonderful plethora of talent spanning generations and genres of musical excellence. Mark Knopfler actually wrote this song with The Everly Brothers in mind and is probably one of his best songs. From the Spanish guitar intro by Chet Atkins, the magical harmonies of the Everly Brothers and Mark's elevated guitar excellence for a perfect performance. Love your happy laugh of great appreciation Harri. Thanks Harri and Agnete. Fantastic. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

I knew I wouldn’t be able to keep my eyes dry and immediately after the first tones from the guitar, the tears started flowing. This song (the Dire Straits version) was played at the cremation of my uncle and it still gets me all emotional when I hear it.

U find the best stuff Harry, ur a very soulful individual and one of my favorite reactors period. U love the music so much and it shows, keep doin u my brother.

Beautiful rendition! Honestly, I didn't think this song could get any better! Truly a special moment.

RIP Chet Atkins, Phil and Don Everly, Paul Yandel, Terry McMillan, and Larrie Londin, I think it was him playing drums, couldn’t get a good look but he played with Chet quite a bit back in this time

This whole concert is awesome, Would HIGHLY recommend.

The show is available on DVD. Go and buy it.

Chet Atkins was the granddaddy of guitar. Wonderful and a true hero to Many, including Mark Knopfler. Nothing needs to be said about Knopfler as he is also a virtuoso. This song is just one of so many classics penned by MK. MK and Chet are huge heroes of mine.

Fantastic find. The Everly Brothers are fantastic.

I absolutely love Mark Knoffler’s guitar playing and songwriting. But the best part of watching this was seeing your emotional connection to the song. God Bless!

Harri , us Everly fans understand exactly how you feel. That’s how we feel about all of their music.

Such simple love song, sung with beautiful harmony. Mark writes lovely lyrics and music. This,too, is my favourite Mark Knopfler piece. It still moves me to tears. He did indeed write this with the Everly Brothers in mind. Part of his remarkable genius is the ability to create the music to work with the emotion and other players. Check out the OST for The Princess Bride. Or better yet watch the movie first. Mark wrote the sound track.

Thank you for doing this Harri. Unknown to many but priceless.

The Everly Brothers were a great duo in the late fifties

The Everlys were a great duo until they stopped touring in 2005. They may not have had records that charted in the Top 40 but they still toured and they put out three wonderful albums in the 1980s that are definitely worth listening to. Even though they’re both gone now, the Everlys are still the best duo ever. No one can come close to them. Their harmonies were perfection.

This song was a challenge for me to play, I have a weak little finger from a sports jam on it. But I love playing it. Look at all those music Masters on the stage playing Mark's song and singing it. What an honour for Mark. Just amazing video.

Magical!

Don’t forget Micheal McDonald on piano

Your channel is fantastic and so are all your subscribers who suggest wonderful performances like this. I hope a LOT of younger people have discovered your channel so that they can appreciate what has transpired before their time.

Wow, Harri... never saw this, so thanks for letting me (and everyone) know it exists. That must have been some night for the audience.

This was from a Chet Atkins TV special. Either 1988 or 1989. It opened with the band playing Walk of Life, and included Knopfler and Chet covering Imagine. From memory they may have played House of the rising son as welll - but I can't be sure on that

Great find. Thank you Agnete and Harri. 💞

This is honestly one of the most beautiful pieces of music. I love seeing you enjoy it as much as I do 💜

This is fantastic and is far better than the original and you can see they all love doing this ,beautiful ,

Just beautiful … Mark Knopfler made the music to Princess Bride

What a fantastic selection Agnete. You couldn't get a better pairing of performers together. I think Harri liked it too.

greatest performance of one of the greatest songs ever!

You can hear Chet Atkins' heart when he plucks his guitar strings.

You react to the Everly's the same way I do. They've been part of my life since the age of 12, 30 years later, I still get chills down my spine when I hear them sing.

Awesome video. Chet Atkins had tears in his eyes at the end.

Chet Atkinson was a major guitarist who is legendary, and who could play anything

What could be better than a "twofer"..... Excellent music and more of the best facial expressions during a reaction video! You make me smile.

I was shocked to see and hear this performance, as I had no knowledge of its' existence before Agnete graced us with this priceless submission. Bravo! Chet Atkin's immense influence on country, rock, and jazz musicians has lasted over half a century, and many of the hit records he produced during his days at RCA are now classics. Chet Atkins was a self-taught guitar virtuoso and multi-instrumentalist, let alone a technical revolutionary. This song was written by Mark Knopfler for The Everly Brothers, both masterful guitarists in their own right. Harri, your response from the onset was a joy to watch.

Wow.. saw this yrs ago… forgot it was out there. Thank you for posting… great memory.

The harmony was fantastic

Great reactiom...I know this well--and it still just transcends

Don McLean’s ‘Vincent’, James Blunt’s ‘Goodbye My Lover’, Enya’s ‘Only Time’, Queen’s ‘Love of My Life’ and this track are the only ones that always make me well up.

Chet Atkins is not only a talented multi-instrumentalist, but a big time producer and record executive credited with "The Nashville Sound." He has fantastic guitar skills and was admired by Knopler who adopted Chet's picking style.

Harri, it's always a pleasure watching you react to songs, and this one is one of your best. And what a line-up of talent, and those harmonies of the Everlys' were amazing.

Once Upon a Time in the West - Alchemy Live is another great song by Knopfler

The reason I subscribe you play all my favourite songs so why worry respect you 6:02

Chet Atkins was Mark Knopfler's mentor; he was a lot of guitar player's mentor. And Michael McDonald on piano; everyone wants Michael in their songs. This performance is perfection. RIP Chet, Don & Phil Everly. xxx

This was historic performance. I have no words....It is also one of my favorite Dire Straits songs, and this live performance was such a surprising discovery. Also , I wanted to add that I like your reactions, as you clearly enjoy music, know a lot about it, and it all seems very genuine. Keep posting !

Please listen to the son g ,so sad, off the everly brothers ,so beautiful xx

In addition to the Everly Borthers, it's not often you'll see Knopfler playing with someone who's an even better guitarist than he is.

This was a Dire Straits song, originally on the album " Brothers In Arms "...the Everlys did give the song a different vibe, the DS version had a bit more melancholy vibe to it

When you look up perfect harmony in the dictionary you will find The Everly Brothers right there!😊

Mark obviously loved his song being intererprated by such great artists.

So many favorites of mine together: heaven!! ❤️ Obviously you are similarly moved!

👍 This was from a fantastic TV Special with Chet Atkins & Friends. After seeing this SO many times I had to go back and listen to the original Dire Straits recording. As great as it was, another cover that’s better than the original. BTW did you notice Michael McDonald on the organ.

I decided to rewatch this video reaction. This was so beautiful that I had tears streaming down my face!! There are no words to describe how beautiful it is...and, with all that talent playing is just awesome. I enjoyed your reaction to this song and all the Everly Brothers songs that you have featured! Thank you!

Thank you, Harri. That was gorgeous indeed. Mark is awesome, and I grew up listening to the Everleys.

Nice find well done

Fyi that white guitar Mark is playing was a guitar lended to him for this concert. And Mark hated it. 😅

Direstraits and ABBA are my favorite bands (both unique and completely their own sound and style and absolute perfection!)

Also the song , message to marry

Just Wow , thanks Harry

Wan t something a bit different simple and unknown from general public ? knowing you i wouldn t be surprized you already know the guy ! ok ! one day in fall i was taking a walk on Mount-Royal ( montreal ) and there was that guy with short hair playing his 12 string guitar and the closer i got to him the better it sounded and suddenly recognized him ! it was a guy i used to listen to back in the 70s ! OMG it s Shawn Philips ? but i always saw him with very long hair on his album covers ! ever heard the song ( woman ) from Quebec city ! one of his hits back then ! check him out please ! he s got really good albums ! 😎

Look at the grin on Mark's face as he starts to play

Magic. Quite like the version with Mark and Emmy lou Harris too.

Michael MacDonald on the keyboard.

This is my husband's account, so I normally don't comment and I'm not really sure how you take requests, but I would love if you could react to Ren- Bittersweet Symphony (The Verve re-take). I'd be interested to hear your perspective on it since you live in Britain. Thanks for what you do. Take care.

I thought this was an Everly brothers song.

You know Art Garfunkel also covered this song? kzread.info/dash/bejne/fYytmrhpY9uXddo.html
