Brilliant version, I wish they had done a studio recording for this.

[Trowerblues]

A wee swatch of 'Romeo & Juliet' at the end there? :P Great version!

@dnhug that's my song in every way, cause I have loooong distance relationship, and he is sooo far away...

[liftedcj7on44s]

I would like to thank the camera man for being a smart guy. He knew that one day we all would be inspecting Marks picking hand!

And, I love how he breaks into the original version! Bravo!

[rmbrdb]

Wow! This guy is so amazing! Love this version!

[roddanrocks]

A bit of Dire Straits is always good for the soul. A great live version:-)

[liftedcj7on44s]

I always come back to this song. It sucks because the acoustic part is so beautiful I cant do anything but close my eyes and drift away so I cant see him play it.

It has to be the most beautiful sounding guitar that I have heard Mark Play.

[avidbookreader]

Greatest version of SFA imo. The acoustic part is beautiful beyond words.

All of the guitars that Mark ever used are equally precious to me, they all sounds amazing, but the guitar he used on Telegraph Road & Tunnel Of Love during the band's Alchemy and Brothers in Armes tours occupies a very special place in my heart. Too bad it's no longer with Mark because he donated that guitar to the Eric Clapton's "Crossroads Guitar Auction" run by Christie's in New York (according to MK website's info).

[liftedcj7on44s]

@avidbookreader You must be talking about the sunburst Schecter with the Brass pick guard. That was a beautiful sounding guitar and IMHO Mark did some of his best solo work on tunnel of love with that guitar.

[MrAngeloss]

@avidbookreader Man,I so love that sunburst schecter,He already used it in 1980.That person who got it must be the happiest person in the world.

[liftedcj7on44s]

Of course that Gibson Chet Atkins Sound's beautiful as well, Hell anything mark's finger's touch sounds beautiful.

[SuperRonj1]

Too bad he's not using this schechter guitar anymore.

[liftedcj7on44s]

@SuperRonj1 I agree, It is my favorite guitar that Mark ever used, I have all the specs to build it straight from Tom Anderson. Send me a message if you want the details.

[SuperRonj1]

This is sooooooooo amazing!!!

[jimog66]

I was supposed to be at this concert all those years ago, but a "mate" stuffed up with the tickets :-( . But it was still bloody good on the tele. and like everyone else is saying, THE BEST VERSION EVVVVVVVVVVVERRRRRRRRRRR!

[Doreas1]

THANKS FOR POSTING THIS ONE..IT IS THE BEST EVER! I SOOO ENJOYED IT..THANKS AGAIN

[Mepth]

This is really the best version of this song. Love it!

[liftedcj7on44s]

This needs more views. This song really makes me sad though, one day Mark Knopfler will be gone from this world. At the beginning when the clouds are going by that is all I think about.

[5157911]

the best all time

[5157911]

les meilleurs de tous les temps

[206willow]

beautiful

[Marikit777]

Mark amazes me no end with his creative genius. He makes each performance better than the last. This version for me is the best - fun, fresh, and fantastic!

[avidbookreader]

Yeah, this is undoubtedly the best version of this song.:)

[motherocean24]

Love it, love it, love it, love it....

[meggido666]

Thanks, have been looking for this version for a long time

[zivacdugave]

great performance

[makeminealettuce]

Mark Knopfler must have boned about 10 groupies after this gig - the ultimate rocker!

[unclebilbo2000]

@makeminealettuce that might be the dumbest youtube comment i have ever read

[liftedcj7on44s]

The acoustic brings a tear to my eye. The schecter "dream machine" is just a dream. The tone is superb.

[coolestcd]

The greatest So Far Away version ever!!!

[titouza1]

[francelizeciola]

[JuanSaler]
