Somebody says that Eric Clapton is the best guitarist? I don't know why ... just listen to this solo then you know who is the best! Eric is just a joke compared to Mark!

Yet Another stellar performance by Knopfler. This man can do no wrong in my eyes. Amazing performance by all but I have to say, the drummer absolutely rocked it. Impressive to say the least. And kudos to the cameramen on the incredible footage. Finally, someone who gives us some great shots of what I consider to be the most important part of a guitar solo. The hands. Great job

side note: This video leaves me thinking I should have paid more attention in band class! Just a thought.

Mark! Always my favorite, 33 years.

I wish I had a 100th of the musical talent of this man, luckily, I can appreciate it. He is the best!

Evidence of musical genius not found in popular music these days.. Very underated guitarist. 2:49-2:55 awesome!

Don't worry man, the guitarists are ranked by those motherfucker so called "critics of art" but who simply do not know to play even a single sound... Mark being so simple in his greatness, doesn't need to be evaluated by them at all, all his life can show not only us who are his admirers, but to anyone on earth that his talent + his feeling are simply incomparable to any other musician... take your time and listen to Telegraph Road in Rome 2010 and then just erease those rankings from your mind.
