having been at this for about 4 years now. I can see what Hes saying. It is a slow progression. I obviously will never be at his level (who is?) But it is inspiring to hear him say, it takes time...

magic fingers!

He's playing Freight Train. :D

I'm watching this video as a beginner guitarist. These guys are my inspiration, just watching him do it so naturally and easily makes me feel like I could just pick up a guitar and do exactly what he does. Truth of the matter is-as much as I'd like that, it just won't happen and so I find I am doing MY best to 'creep' forward. I've watched lessons that show you exactly what to play, and i'm finding, just a general jump start like Knopfler shows us is all you need to start your practising.

He's awesome.

Awesome! I love his comment about slowly creeping forward as a guitarist. So true. We mortals tend to think that the genius did not have to work at it.
I think it is unfair to try to say who is the greatest. There are many (Clapton, Gilmour, Knopfler) to name a few. But Knopfler is certainly in the top class and my favorite. 'Brothers In Arms' is the greatest song ever IMO. Mark Knopfler's lyrics seperates him from the pack for me.
Wonder how many guitarists would love to have Mark Knopfler give them a music lesson ? He could probably make millions doing so, even if he doesn't need it !
Thanks Mark, and thanks for this video !
