  • Mark Knopfler and Tom Jones together, well, no need to say more except...Unbeatable combination...Cheers..

    Wayne..

  • Wow !!!!!! Dont know anything else to say about that guitar !

  • I remember when this was in tv first time in the 90's. I still love the way Mark plays in this gig.

    Do any of you know what amp Mark is using here?

    I can see a Marshall head in background. If it was a Marshall, what model would you think it was then?

  • 4:45 stand back tom I got this under control, MK = KING OF ENGLAND

  • Rolling Stones magazine just released their Top Guitarists of all time. Mark is not even in the top 10!!! They are all tone deaf druggies.

  • lord i tried to see the proof

  • Uwielbiam Knopflera. Jego gitara jest nie do powtórzenia. Amazing

  • 2 legends together; END OF !

  • Simply Wonderful!

  • I can dance this song all the non-stop all night.

    But with Mark playing guitar live.

    You are great.

  • FEELS LIKE MY HEART TALKING

  • Absolutely stunning, and very touching. Masters at work! :)

  • Ist eines meiner Lieblingsclips von Mark. :) I love this :)

  • 3:49 - Perfect guitar solo.

  • What a beautiful song! I heard a version of it on a rerun of "My So-Called Life". I couldn't figure out who did it originally.That led me to Charlie Rich ( who wrote it), to this wonderful version ( Tom Jones is one of the bluesiest vocalists!) with one of my favorite guitar players Mark Knopfler. After all that, i realized i had this song on the "Notting Hillbillys" album.Thought it sounded familiar. :-)

  • @bezzarguy

    Pretty good version this one, but the version by The Walkabouts is BY FAR the best version of this song..EVER!

  • @vegard1403 Nice! thanks for the heads up i had never heard of The Walkabouts,great version. It's such a fine song! Charlie Rich's original version without all the production on it, is also beautiful.

  • @vegard1403 ; In your humble opinion of course!

  • Amazin!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • Mark Knopfler = sheer epicness

  • listen, mr Vai & Satriani, to this..

    you don't HAVE to play 2928374675 notes to create a beautiful solo!

  • Charlie rich wrote a great song and these guys want to pay tribute to him for doing that.  RIP Charlie 1995. Good recording.

  • Mark Knopfler and a Gibson Les Paul is like apple pie with ice cream, one just has to go with the other.

  • @skippy3840 i always felt that he played the Gibson the slutyest. Which aint a bad thing. I love grimy slutty funky stuff.

  • @skippy3840 Meh, I disagree... His Strat suits him better and provides him with a much more subtle tone in my opinion :)

  • Too fucking good

  • His hands were gifted by God, How can a guitar be played so plainly and elegantly? a stunning guitar craftsmanship from Knopfler, and one more thing: FUCK ALL THOSE RAP CRAP, THIS WHAT I CALL REAL MUSIC...

  • He makes his perfect, beautiful playing look totally effortless. Looking at his face it doesn't even look like he is playing. It is indeed like that guitar has a voice of it's own.

  • I think this is one of the most beautiful and touchy solo's i've ever heard. So pure!!

  • genuine people???...those that paid i suppose.

  • nice one.

    

  • When he plays his guitar like that, it's not just a musical instrument, but it's more like another singer with a voice of its own, and you feel surely it could be translated into real words, just like a foreign language.

  • This version is giving me shivers every time again and again

  • both know they're instrument well.

  • I was able to catch Tom Jones live about one year ago and I was amazed at the way he could dance and perform.He was very hot ,and I dont care what age groupwas there. he was non generational.kudos to both Mark and Tom and thank you for this inspiring post.^v^

  • Hear we have the greatest singer in the World Mr TOM JONES, I would like this song played at my funeral, what a great way to go,this song is heaven

  • love that guitar

  • Mark Knopfler's guitar is always so soothing to me. Don't know if he's the best guitarist, but he's definitely one of them. It's hard to put that title on just one person. Every great guitarist has their own special sound. I just love the sound of Mark's playing. Sweet sounds.

  • Amazing!

    

  • Mark knopfler is the best guitarist of all ... he's such a humble and calm guy , just great

  • @totolof973 ~so agree with you!

  • the feeling mark has is the point which makes him differnet from other. It#s just amazing!

  • Two of the worlds best performers. Great tune, wonderful singer, and the very best on guitar. thanks...Cheers..

    Wayne..

  • this is soooooooooooo good!!

  • I just love Mark´s way of being human and modest - so down to earth..... He know he´s one of the worlds best guitarists, but still he seems so shy and humble when he perform...

  • love his first solo and the ending

    great use of chromaticism and nice phrasing through echoing theme

    just brilliant

  • Számomra Mark az egyik legjobb gitáros a világon!

  • from the ear in to the soul

  • It's videos like this that make me glad I'm alive in the age of youtube. I've watched this so many times and still its a treat every time. Two legends.

  • two great masters..

  • Brilliant. Two great artists.

  • Awfully good... Terribly great... REAL GOOD PERFORMANCE!!!

    

  • Awfully good... Terribly great... REAL GOOD PERFORMANCE!!!

  • PLEASE don' t let WMG know about this video!

  • @Kauwhaka

    Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!

  • 5:49 BEST BENDING EVER IN HISTORY!!!! PURE FEELING

  • 4:44 God of fingerpicking

  • very nice!

  • Tom really aged well at this time for sure.Great powerful voice!

  • Mark Knopfler is so good at playing that during a solo the parts that he's not playing is also part of the solo.

  • amayzing

    

  • This is the best guitarsolo EVER!!!

  • Who couldn't listen to mark play the guitar all day long? fantastic stuff.

    The only thing i don't like about this song is that i can't hear it again for the first time. Brilliant.

  • Great performance for both Tom and Mark.. a lot of guys can play guitar, and play it well, but Mark has a gift that can just make that guitar " sing" the way he plays it.. Listen to each note, each note just speaks out as he picks them....

  • Absolut perfekt ....Mark is the best Gittarist.

  • - Mark?

    - I've been called worse!

  • @MightGetLucky I believe Tom called Mark Mike the first two times at Mark's motel door, but someone must have corrected Tom as he called him Mark when he invited him to the stage. Try another listen for this and I think you'll pick up on it.

  • @MightGetLucky Try another listen and I think you'll hear Tom call Mark Mike twice at Mark's motel door. He got it correct when he got on stage; someone must have corrected Tom. Anyway, I'm sure they both walked away with a performance neither will forget.

  • @cooltooth112 Sounded like Mark to me...Tom is Welsh...the "r"s are very soft.

  • Tom the best

  • in this combination they are the Best!!!

  • Pure brilliance. Need I say anything else?

  • ¿qué es el feelin? es ésto: lo que hace ese marciano con la guitarra. Os juro que lo claaavo, pero me suena como el culo

  • Mark habla mejor con los dedos que con la boca...

  • I never cared much for Tome Jones music before, but this song, along with Marks guitar is tops. I love it. I like the way Mark squeezes in his distinctive trademark "buzzz" at 6:20 . Bo mistake on who's playing when you here that.

  • @Kauwhaka I'm so glad someone thinks and feels just the way I do about Mark's unique style and "trademark".

    That "buzz" you've mentioned and all of the ending of the song are just as amazing as magical; for me, by far, the best part of all of the solos! :)

  • @ceangriseus The Muddy Waters song 'Feel Like Going Home' is a complete different song though. Have a listen, there is a Muddy Waters' Feel Like Going Home on You Tube. Rich did compose this song.

  • mark is playing a good guitar, like he always do, but i don´t like the sound of this guitar, his normal fender woud do a better job.

    but great riffs.:-)

  • @drftg12

    I think the sound on this is great, really suits the Les Paul, however on the record he uses his gorgeous Pensa Shur, and it has the greatest tone of any guitar ever. Amazing.

  • @qjamesfloyd Which record are you referring to? I'd love to hear it.

  • @Kauwhaka The record is Missing Presumed Having A Good Time by The NottingHillbilles, a side project Mark did with friends in 1990, very good album.

  • i don't think the same, my friend..... much more powerful sound with the les paul

  • for domland19, Charlie Rich wrote this song

  • @MrKmb17 No, he recorded it. Muddy Waters recorded it in 1948 and it was an old southern blues song then.

  • Great posting

    Thumbs UP

  • the lion and the welsh tiger. thank yu from finland

  • Thanks Mark K for another sweet performance.. You're cool TJones. :-)

  • very goog version , great performance.

  • great great version, i guess!!!!!!! but who wrote this song?

  • hey guys i need to no asap where i can downlode this into a song i need it for my pars funeral thnx

  • Sweet sons! This gonna make me scrike. :]

  • What show was this in the united kingdom?

  • Cant understand how 3 people ddnt like this video . its awsome

  • @patallah

    lady gaga fans who got lost and found this little gem

  • Great. But I agree the Charlie Rich should have been mentioned. His original version is nothing less than inspirational. Pure music.

  • They might have at least named Charlie Rich. (The writer of that tune and his swansong) Search for "Charlie Rich Feel Like Going Home Demo"

  • Fantastic performance as usual from the great MK.. And he is such a modest sounding man,and makes it look easy! First class video,thanks for putting up.

  • Dit is zo'n super mooi nummer. Ik zou wel graag willen weten wat hij gebruikt (behalve die mooie gitaar dan) om dat mooie geluid te krijgen. Is het alleen de versterker of gebruikt hij ook nog pedalen?

  • I saw him 3 times in Portugal! This is one of the best performances I saw...

  • What a splendid two great talent collaboration !

  • What a splendid two great talent collaboration !

  • Fabulous!!! thank you. 10*

  • FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • Una delle canzoni dove Mark ha lasciato il segno! :)

    Spero di riuscire a vederlo nel tour 2010...

  • Tom Jones sings the song beautifully, but then Knopfler blows him away with his god-like guitar solo. Bloodly Stunning!

  • Very good!!!!Great performance!!!This is feeling pure....

  • I agree, great performance

  • @Super1652 @blueaziza,yes this is so pure,because i can feel it in my soul!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    greatsssss bluemoon

  • that two guitar solos...

  • ZOOOOOO perfect knopfler beestachtige mooie solo en Tom Jones is een levende legende!!!!!!!!......perfecte song op mijn cremantie hahha

  • hahah,, solo is idd echt ongelofelijk. kga hem dit jaar zien in de heineken music hall.

  • GOD!!! That guitar solo....!

  • Absolutely. Makes hairs stand on end! Let's have something more like that next time MK please!

  • Tom Jones does an excellent job. Lol how could you feel that he hasn't done this song justice??

  • Perfect X 2.

  • Which one are you calling the original? Is it the Notting Hillbillies version or the Charlie Rich version?

  • This is a great song, and what a pair of solos Mark plays, he is so well known as a strat player, but he has been playing the Les Paul more than Strat since he went solo in 1996, so I feel he should be though of as a Les Paul legend too. Listen to the tone, the phrasing!! Magic.

  • Mark and Tom... who would have thought? What a great performance!

  • Wow! I love this song from The Nottings album but always thought the solo was too short. I've just been in heaven, I was getting chills from the vocals AND the guitar

  • Marks guitar n Toms voice really hit the right spot,beautyfully played n sang,.....wish i had Tom Jones voice n Mark Knopflers skill on guitar,not to mention theyr bank accounts,...just 1 word....GREAT..

  • goosebumps

  • Two of the greatest ever!

  • This is feeling man right here! Unbelievable soul in vocals and Mark's guitar. So inspiring to me as a songwriter...

    my space com/phantomoneband

  • What brilliant string! No one can make a guitar sing quite like Mark. This is one of my favourite clips. Great voice of Tom and great string of MK. Thanks for posting.

  • Mark is best musician I have ever known.

  • Wow, this is some choice quality stuff. Each of us come to crossroads in our lives where we must make a decision as to which path to follow. Thank goodness Mark Knopfler chose to play guitar and Tom Jones chose to become a singer. Can you imagine either in any other profession? They both rang the bell on this performance!

  • and the tone of synths, awesome too :) Since I play not only electric guitar, but keyboards too, I can hear beauty of this instruments in knopfler's songs

  • neskutečné!!! úžasné!!!!

  • 2 Legends at the top of their game.Superb.The voice and the tone of that guitar. Awesome

  • It doesn't get any better than this.

  • Really, beautiful

  • I'd also like to add that I love his personality. A very calm, respectful, and kind guy which likes to have and give a good laugh.

  • Besides all comments on which I agree that Mark really is, and there's no other word for it, a musical genius. Both at playing the guitar and songwriting/singing.

    But what really catches me about him is that he puts so much of him into it, that even after all these years that I've been hearing him, I get the feeling as of being surpised on how he does it. It's like a constant WOW, but a wow with a warm heart especially in these kind of songs.

  • Well said mate.

  • hear, hear!

  • @Jonnypcl Exactly. When I found out Mark went solo in the 90's I was happy but when I heard him and his more folk sound I scooted him to the top of my favorite musician list, everything just has so much feeling in it.

  • He couldn't play better than this, simply an incredible solo, makes me wanna cry when I listen to it!

  • I love his distortion sound

  • Mark`s guitar sound is the best!!!

  • Two of the best in the business (legends)

  • Grande Mark, suona la chitarra e fa venire i brividi. Unico!!!!

  • This is an AMAZING guitar performance from Mark, and just goes to show what he can do with other peoples songs, pure emotional guitar playing, it does doesn't get any better than this.

  • Mark Knopfler is one of the best, his guitar is like a dagger to the heart. Absolutely amazing preformance from both Tom and Mark!

  • Mark is the best of the best.... genius

  • Beautiful combination! TOm is superb!

  • I am going to learn this one to play at church. Inspirational.

  • I disagree, it's not the same style but he's still playing with his heart. He's just more calm than in the 80 cause he's older, he doesn't have the same energy. His songs are less punchy, but more melodic, solos are not as fast as before, but in my opinion, more emotional.

  • MK's solo is so heartfelt, Intuitive, and masterful it brings a tear to my eyes. Such wonderful craftmanship.

  • Worth billion of views.

  • if you say you don't like, I can agree, but don't say it's rubbish... It doesn't have to be rock'n'roll and crazy guitar solos to be good.

    The solo in this song is awesome, even if it's not as fast as the dire straits stuff, it's different but still amazing.

  • talk about Harmony, Beautiful

  • wow never heard it  it's so beautiful

  • Comment removed

  • Simply fantastic! MK is amazing!

  • Awesome!

  • any bad examples???

  • sorry but he is still just as good as ever, he has just mellowed and become more melodic as he has got older.you can still hear his soul in every note. Superb

  • Comment removed

  • This solo is what a solo is all about.

  • Exelente video, isto é uma raridade.  GILBERTO.
