Really need to go through these tracks and upload them at the right speed. These are all a half note sharp, and going way too fast. An easy fix with free software. Look into it.

nice catch re lyrics, eyebone, I always wondered whether that 2nd verse printed in the album ever existed - and indeed, here it is! Pick's cowbell solo makes an appearance here also.

This version was sometimes played in concert. I have a bootleg of a 79' concert in Amsterdam where they play this version. Amazing.

This actually has the second verse in it! 1.14 to 1.42. These lyrics were actually printed in the CD, but never sung. I always wonder what the deal was with that. And here they are. Too bad they shortened this for the album. It's a great song

The guitar in this version changes the whole feel of the song. I like both versions about the same. To me they're like 2 different songs.

The original is on their first album 'Dire Straits' but not as good as this demo though.
