The "Big River" is one of well constructed and arranged songs. First time on radio I listened to it, and mentioned this song, because of nice arranged harmonics, and somehow that guitar sound cached me..., - just later found that Mark Knopfler played the guitar in this song (sory, I never new that Alan also has played there). I have been the fan of Dire Straits, so i started to listen to this song again and again, more carefully. At that time I did not got too much in lyrics (due to my english knowledge that time), but by the time I enjoyed the lyrics in full. Great song, and great story of how times and generations are passing buy.
