My boyfriend took me to see MK two years ago in Syracuse, New York. Im 23 now and Knopfler's been my favorite musician since I was about 10 and first discovered him through my father. Im not going to lie. I had to hold back tears when I saw him standing in front of me live. Nobodys ever struck me with their music like MK. Hes a modern Beethoven. Not only a great guitarist, songwriter, but also a masterful composer. Brilliant man.
I just saw him in Milan... and i must absolutely say that he's one of the greatest artists that i've ever seen, with the best musicians that i've never seen...
In this performance, when Mark begins a solo, he always looks like just a grandpa showing off a guitar to his grandchildren.. except of course the solos are awesome.
@pplpilot Yes, I know, and it's usually "I'm only (insert teen/tween age here)" - like they're jail baiting. You never see "I'm only 85, and my grandmother knows Mark's father's phlebotomist."
@greenwich1754 I never posted my age, but I know why people my age do. We're growing up in a time where most people our age listen to useless music thats constantly played everywhere, so we feel kind of proud and privelaged to listen to this music, it also lets older people know that not everyone our age listen to the usual crap :)
@pplpilot I kind of like to hear younger people appreciate the true guitar masters like Gilmore and Knopfler. Gives me a little hope that they'll be appreciated long after old farts like me are long gone.
i have to admit when i was younger i was never a fan of dire straits,apart from some songs on brothers in arms,now im 43 and as you get older your likes tend to change,i love marks solo albums,my 2 fav tracks are boom like that/piper to the end,love the emotion you can here when he plays guitar and the way he kind of mumbles through the words while singing,also seen him in concert,CLASS,last few months into rodney crowell,earthbound,fate's right hand,time to go inward,many a long and lonesome h
@emidiopt ainda so toco guitarra a meio ano mas ja consigo muito da sultans of swing e da romeo and juliet.. consigo tambem a money for nothing e a just instinct.. e so uma musica de um album simples.. ja tocas a muito tempo?
If you want to hear a great live version, which is better than the studio version, down load "piper to the end" from Lucca. It is a masterpiece of musical talent, poignant lyrics and as usual a great outro.
@cosworth89 if you wanna hear the studio version then stay home and listen to the CD. we dont want you at the concerts if you arent gonna appreciated the live version of the songs.
Are you serius cosworth? where's the art in playing the same song the same way more then once in a life time? why on earth would they play it like the studio version?
Knofler read Krocs autobiography "Grinding it out" and was apalled of his greed and cynicism. Most of the passages in the song are derived directly from the book. I read the book and Kroc is indeed worthy of the criticism, though I doubt he'd be anything less than indifferent to it - so you can probably say he'd be honored in a way. The business of business isn't about morale, not when Kroc was around anyway.
@Seattlecarnut: I'm not a native speaker so I'm not sure whether I've used the right word... I meant something like "sarcastic". Agree with mojones 79 - phrases like "sometimes you gotta be an SOB if you wanna make a dream reality" say it all. Kroc came from the same country as me, his surname is pronounced [Krotz] here (with short o) and he's the one "famous" Czech I'm not proud of. I hope we made it up to the world by producing Otto Wichterle, the inventor of contact lenses and a good person.
for some reason it makes me sad to see him as an old man...its just, growing up i thought he was just blessed by god or sommin xD like he was gonna stay at that age forever :(
when the dreaded time comes and he hangs up his coat i wont speak to anyone for weeks. hes to good to die :'(
Hey dude, Great music vids. I am a rag picker myself. Knopfler is the best and I play alot of his tunes, However, I need to download a mp3 of telegraph road. can't find it at amazon. Can you send it to me? Much appreciated. Guitarldk,
heh 2:27 looks like "uh, iam so bored, lets enter some good solo and see what happens". MK just owns the title of best guitar player,rockplayer for me
you are all attacking farco because of the watermark....but he s the one that shared this great video with us,and he doesnt want someone else to copy it and takes credits for it...we should be all thankful to him...

KilledbiDeat??...He looks like he is "hating" what he is doing? Huh? Maybe after a steady diet of pseudo mach posers, chronically wasted guitar wannabees with their rehearsed stage moves. Knopfler is more about the essence and feel of the actual SONG lyrics, phrasing tone feel. He stands and delievers powerful music , without contriving something that distracts from the SONG
I LOVE it !
