EN ese momento yo cumplia 11 años...y ya los escuchaba..Que buen documento este video !! Gracias por subirlo !!!

[captaindillo]

ahaha pick's jump at the end was awesome

he's the best drummer ever

[dirosaga]

shoulds renamed the group dire strats- i couldn't imagine these songs on another guitar. planing on having this song learnt by the end of the month, to preform with a buddy at the campus bar. think i'l borrow a dudes strat though, as you've seen my logic.

[oris33]

thaank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuuuuuuuu DIRE STRAITSSSSSSSS

[jOntzohr]

I've always thought that it was Mark who played the wrong solo the first time but after listening to this version several times today, I've realized that it's actually David who started to play the chord-progression for the second solo instead of the one for the first solo. Maybe no shock, Mark never fails ;)

[Cptjackjacky]

the Knopfler brothers on top form as ever, love it!

[groovydragon1]

That's the best version ever !!

[Conacastes]

I wonder if he ever did drugs , dont think so

[groovydragon1]

@Conacastes OOOh Yes it's call musique !!.. the best drug ever !!

[76Solo712]

@Conacastes He must have. Look at how good he's playin'!

[babadudden]

@Conacastes he once said that he never tried drugs. He really wonderful isn`t he? A true rockstar but he instead of drinking gallons of alcohol he liked a good cup of tea. My biggest idol!

[totermusiker]

@babadudden

Well, it's only fitting, he is British ;)

[babadudden]

@totermusiker well, he is actually from Scotland:)

[totermusiker]

@babadudden

Ups thanks for pointing that out, I assumed he is a British-man because he lived in London, silly me.

[diemutha666]

Finally get to see the original lineup.Thank you =)

[JimmyPagesSoloLover]

C'mon people w / this HD stuff. I live in the woods & am using DIAL UP for goodness sakes! Though I must say, Mark's great guitar playing is so well worth the waiting. Mark can make that guitar do & say just about anything. DOG, Thanks for the tunage!

[rockaires]

Sublime.

[mariaortensia1]

Sei grande, grande, grande, grandeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[rascalferret]

3:25 oops

[stevied167]

good tunes love it that's music word sd167

[meakins8]

The drummer actually plays better in this version, esp at the end wen he jumps out of his seat lol

[meakins8]

Which version do u prefer from the Rockpalast, I think the 2nd one Mark has more charisma, he's a propa joka wen he's singing, and the solos sound a bit more epic maybe?

[stratman01]

Oh my Gawd! Mark is human after all! In the first solo he tries to play the solo that fits over the outro section. The bass player probably thought he was off. That'll get yer attention! Oops!! You don't see that every day. Whatever...Mark is still THE MAN.

[jpdel31]

Mark knopfler plays like  god

[MrTomVI]

I had the chance to see the STRAITS in the early 80th. What a band, what a sound, what a perfect guitar player!

[allemos]

It is what i call rock'n'roll. Mr Knopfler is the sultan of swing

[coronelguitar]

Nice hair.

[jon1156]

I like that a guy has enough respect for his audience to play the solo as it was recorded (more or less) since that's what they came to hear.

[jon1156]

I wonder how he gets that great slap back echo in this.

[jebas1322]

@jon1156 i was thinking that my self its so short you can barely hear it but its there

[PabloMaffioli]

too thin!

anyway, a genious

[DragonTiger84]

I saw Mark last year live @ Hallenstadion Zurich and I can say that he performs this and all other songs still as brilliant as back then!! Thanks for posting the vid! :)

[quickshotproductions]

"thank you see you in a minute.. i hope" lol

[amalsbury99]

Love it! Thank you so much! First song I ever knew from DS/MK.... I adore this song!!!

[taylor410ce]

I love this version of saltans but it never stays on youtube for very long.

[DogSwede1]

I think this one will,

[taylor410ce]

i hope so.

[VirgilC23]

@DogSwede1 I heard them, 1979 freiburg in germany and it was the best concert of a lifetime ever since.

[neli3250]

Very, very good!!!!

[prompen3]

Thaank youuu!

[DogSwede1]

You're welcome! =)
