  • there is nothing harder than trying be as good as a world class musician who composed this piece but take heart you did a great job & I should know I have been around along time & heard & seen the best form the60s right up to the present..well done !!

  • You guys are fantastic! I really don't like cover bands (Which I am not saying you are, I only heard you playing this song) but you really honored Dire Straits and their musical genius!! I gotta congratulate you for a job well done! I like the fact you seem to be enjoying the music rather than just playing it and you can really feel that. Also, just like Dire Straits you sound great as a whole and as a single instrument and I especially liked the fact sax was the lead instrument here. Thank you!

  • Well done guys!!!!!!

  • I'll bet our local hero Mark would give you the thumbs up for your rendition of this fantastic piece, well done!!!!

  • Thank you very much "aflatminor",

    I will take a look and give a feedback soon

    By the way, Im brazilian

    See ya

  • Ow it sounds really great everything sax and guitar awesome! the lead guitar gets the texture of song, just be carefull with the noise produced when you move by slides along the neck, but vibratos and pull off are good

    Thank you for posting and keep rocking!

    WENT TO ST JAMES PARK 16/10/10 THIS TUNE AND THE WAY ITS PLAYED AT THE PARK AND VIA THIS BAND HERE BRINGS BACK SOOOOOOO MANY MEMORIES

    PS ONLY THE GOOD ONES!!!!!!!!

  • Ever heard this at St James'? Really gets me goin!

  • Which concert did you record this at>? Was it the MEN one? It was FANTASTIC!! I was there and never expected to hear the 'old' stuff. This and Romeo and Juliet are two of my ALL TIME favourite tracks!

  • ha tardado en descargar pero ha merecido la pena.

    buenisimo.

  • excelente version chicos, muy bueno

  • Great great job!

  • excellent

  • the best it great hope spain win the cup 2morro good luck and god bless

  • Brilliant

  • Excellent, but the Saxophonist should step back!

  • I found this video by accident and thought - "WOW" - this is going to be really something. Up until around 2 minutes 25 secs in this was streets ahead of MK's version - the guitar work was far better and it was really setting up for a great track, but then the rest of the group came in and it was downhill from then on!! The sax should have been dispensed with as it adds nothing to the song, and the lead guitar lost its' presence. Please guys, get your balance right and you'll be far better!!

  • @ScrumptiousStrat  No sorry but it's always been the Sax cutting in that's made the song so bloody good. keep up the good work Roberto

  • @bigtw1963 It's all brilliant- it just gets me inside, the whole arrangement. The sax is brilliant, the guitars are brilliant and I laways had a thing for Mark!

  • @bigtw1963 The arrangement is bloody fantastic and it 'takes me home' to Scotland- all the way back to where I first heard it! And where I used to holiday as a kid.

  • Thank you "helsybub" !!

  • very good :-) muy bien

  • nice song!!! Hi from ny

  • You invited me to listen. I'm not a real big Straits fan, but I do like them. For me this song had too much sax, I could not hear the guitar very well.

  • I closed my eyes and I'm listening to Knopfler and the boys- good job.

  • awesome cover  can listen to them all night long

  • A worthy tribute band! You've got a new fan.

  • only dire straits

  • Yo.

  • Yes, to be true to the culture ob Sebilla, & Andalucian traditions; the fact-is.... On first hearing you-all braught tears to the eyes @ 2:29/30....(ish)....as your Sax took the beauty-UP. This is quite obviously an exquisite group-'harmonic,' & working-dynamic; and you do yourselves proud herein. Don't worry, be happy; & will gently spread this work-around amongst own contacts & afficianados. Bravo & bellissimo. Both. Thankyou. d x

  • how can anyone give less than 5 * for that?

    8O :(

  • Thank you "derletzteindiana". Five stars for your comment ;-)

    Regards

    Roberto.

  • Una gran version, si señor

    Ahora un dato de parte de saxofonista, el saxo se mueve muy poco, si se daria un poco mas de vida, algo mas de sentimiento interpretativo quedaria mucho mejor. Pero muy bien

  • Muchas gracias "Gacela03" por tu crítica. Bueno, hay que aclarar que Rubén Morán (saxo) nunca antes había tocado con nosotros, ni siquiera para un ensayo previo a este concierto, y aun así creo que lo hizo genial.

    Espero que puedas venir a vernos en directo ;-)

    Saludos

    Roberto.

  • Thats a great effort guys. Loved the sax in the lead rather than the guitar. Well done.

  • good effort guys.

    brilliant up until the draums came in..and it kicked off..

    biggest problem, and thing you have to remember....the lead guitar has to be tighter with the sax..

  • hey again.... whenever i watch this vid, just one word "mindblowing".... God bless u all....

  • Thank you "ayjymallick74".

    All the best for you.

    Roberto.

  • Comment removed
