  • This is a great version. Sultans of Swing will always hold a dear place in my heart and I would like to thank DogSwede1 and the many other knopfler fans out there for these enjoyable video's.

    I always sit and wonder if Mark himself ever hop's on Youtube and listens to his own stuff from these time's?

  • Happiest I've ever seen him (MK) in a video.

  • 0:44 I miss the times when Charlie Chaplin used to play with a yo-yo at concerts. Those were the days.

  • It looks like David's Strat might have been customized at some point. It looks like those holes in the pickguard where a couple slide switches (like you find on the Fender Mustang) might have been installed, but it looks like they had been removed by the time this video was made.

    I think David had the guitar refinished, because I'm sure I've seen a photo of him playing a brown Strat with those switches in place, so he may have had them removed at the same time the guitar was refinished.

  • What are those two black... things under and between David's middle and neck pickups?

  • DS 5 times exept the on every street tour

    MK solo other 5 or 6 times....now i'm waiting for the new tour....the new album is fantastic
