after , say 2 years of NOT listening to this , i listened it today ... and i STILL could remember how the solo went ! ... THAT'S HOW GOOD THIS COVER IS !
The video could of been removed due to Dire Straits's record label (that owns the copyright for money for nothing) did a DMCA/copyright request to youtube.
Ewe sorry to say but I will ! He's got the notes all down great, but the inflection leaves something to be desired. Sort of like pianists who know all the notes but the heart is missing.
Gotta love the "cocked wah" (wah wah pedal dialed back just a little), I used to do it with my old Crybaby many years ago. I need to get another one soon. :)
@RockVoltz His name is Knopfler first of all. Secondly a pick is needed by a substandard player to even come close to the sound of a finger picked song. When youre good enough, as this person clearly isnt, then you can try to finger pick.
@JiffJaffa we both know your full of shit so why don't contine to whine & bitch about this kent guy being a better guitarist then you obviously are sir.If you were better you wouldn't be downsizing & insulting him better yet like most true guitarist,Like myself would tell him honestly what he did right & where he need's to improve as a real guitarist or musicians need & want the criticism"good & bad".You sir need to take guitarist lessons obviously as you still know nothing about true music.
@JiffJaffa@JiffJaffa sure whatever contine to live in denial sir,We both know music isn't a fucking contest & fellow musicians help eachother out unless like in many bands they grow apart.All musicians that is true musicians will tell you the same.Music is about friendship,learning,teaching, and most improtant the love of music.Here's a guitarist that's playing almost perfect with only slight mistakes yet you bash him instead of telling him what those mistakes were.
For all Kent's fans, the culprit is Stage Three Music, and the gal who runs the removal for reasons of copyright bullshit can be contacted at... Connie.Ashton (at)stagethreemusic dotcom. Why would you buy anything they produce, as if ZZ Top haven't got enough pesos already! I know I've given them plenty.
i prefer this than the original, i don't know why.
