Comments: To be honest I was not that bothered about Dire Straits or Mark Knopfler's subsequent solo career, until he worked with Emmylou Harris, and leaped on to my personal radar.
That he was a superb guitarist was never in question, however I guess I found Dire Straits over played on the radio, and a little 'laid back' for my personal taste, mind you all that is a long time ago now.
In fact listening to this material and some of his live stuff with Emmylou Harris, I reckon I may have missed out on something very good in recent years, and am now back tracking through some great music.

it, indeed i tried. it is not available anywhere else. I love this man's music and model much of my own guitar playing after him. I stumbled upon his 2007 recording of Brothers in Arms and fell in love with it. it is so superior to his original. I listened to the rest of the concert on youtube had to try to add it to my collection. I did thanks to you.
