  • go Scotty go ! you are the Best

  • wow.. i love youtube

  • Hi! what 's the DVD's name????

  • This song was clearly written about me; Rock'n'roll'Ruby. yeah!

  • Big nose implies great personality.

  • Nice Mark!

  • thers nothing knopfler canot do

    knopfler for presidency :)

  • Say, I wonder if Sam Phillips was present during this performance. He'd have gone absolutely bonkers if these guys had dropped by in 1956 or so and done this tune ... then! How incredible! ... I just ordered the DVD.

  • Worth five stars for Scotty Moore's playing alone !

  • thanks so much!

  • does ANYBODY know how you can get an mp3 or cd or something with this on it just audio?

  • his nose is too big :D

  • What is this?

    Actual Knopfler's project for 2009?

  • Jools Holland is rockin

  • Scotty Moore and Mark Knopfler what more do you want.

  • Amazing!!!

    The Best one Ever!!!

    Long live Knopfler!!!

  • Sahnestückchen mmh lecker

  • Yeah, Johnny Cash wrote this and it was first recorded by Warren Smith in the 50s. You can find Cash's demo on the Bear Family box set titled The Man In Black 1954-58.

  • Elvis's drummer and guitarist - they mention Carl Perkins

    Info? Rockabilly museum in Jackson Tenn - Google it and grow wise

  • He forgot a verse "One night my Ruby left me all alone I tried to contact her on the telephone. I finally found around a tweleve o'clock she said a-leave lonely daddy cus ruby wants to rock she's my rockin..." Still great though

  • he didn't forget he just made a short version of this song

  • Everything he does turns to GOLD!! Hes a Legend and a Gentleman rocker to boot! cannot be beaten on any level in my opinion!

  • who is the original ''creator'' of rock and roll ruby? Is MK?

  • @johnnyndl Not by a million miles. And he hardly does credible job on the vocal. Check out some versions from 50 years ago. Actually, slightly before that in fact. Warren Storm. Roy Orbison. Jerry Lee Lewis. Written by one J. Cash.

  • The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is a joke without MK in it.

  • whose is this song?

  • Koooooooool!!

  • Is that video on a dvd or something ? cause there is Ferry and Knopfler and I love both of their music so I would be interested in seeing the whole video...

  • WHAT A FUN MAN!

  • everything that mark does is brilliant

  • Writen or at least credited to Johnny Cash but made famous by Warren Smith, It was his first record (Recorderd February 5, 1956 Sun 239 - Rock 'n' Roll Ruby / I'd Rather Be Safe Than Sorry)

  • On what Knopfler's album can I found this song ?

  • Anyone know where/how/what album I can get hold of Rock 'N' Roll Ruby the single?

  • Man O' man!! Thank you very much.

  • johnny cash wrote it and the killer did a great version at sun.Mark does it justice!

  • scotty moore, i think..

  • Don't know his name, but that cat playing guitar with mark is awesome. Hope someone sends me his name.

  • Wow, Mark has done a few song haven't he?

  • Scottt Moore, think he was Elvis P guitarist :)

  • @Leksingen Yes He was Elvis guitar player from 50's up to the end of 60's.

  • @cruserb Obviously you can't figure these things out for yourself!

  • Who originally did Rock and Roll ruby..was it cash?

  • fantastic

  • Seen this before....however not the conversation before it....really enjoyed that....thanks Leksingen!

  • WOW, that is all i can say, knopfler just excels at every type of music he plays!

  • Agreed!! Legend. Fact.

  • When Mark starts a rockin, it satisfies my soul!
