    The most important line in that song is always overlooked yet it's meaning is enormous. This song is for all soldiers, from all cultures and religions, "we're fools to make war with our "brothers in arms" it's not OUR fight we're fighting..😔

    When talking about great guitarists, one cannot fail to mention Mark Knopfler. Very few can touch guitar strings like him. And speaking of Knopfler, cascading down, one can only get to Dire Straits and, consequently, Sultans Of Swing (don't let the title trick you, it's ROCK).
    The Sultans Of Swing I propose you, in fact, is the amazing live version extracted from the 1984 live Alchemy. (238 millions wiew)
    Extended in minute length precisely to allow Knopfler to do what he most preferred: play joyfully with the guitar.
    This version is much more intense than the one on record because of the presence of the keyboards, the exuberance of Williams on drums but, above all, Knopfler's histrionics in expanding the beautiful final solo.
    The frontman masterfully embroiders the original piece and takes it to the next level.
    Priceless!

    Great reaction. Knopfler plays well and serves the song, writes great lyrics and plays awesomely. I'd love to see you react to Alan Holdsworth looking glass. People say that Steve Vai is not from Earth well Holdsworth is from another galaxy. All i can do is laugh when i hear him play. Just unique sounds. He's got a very sophisticated palette to draw from.

    Being a classical guitarist, you must listen to some Genesis, particularly from the '70s. They were a progressive rock band with classical and folk roots (and a HUGE following, similar to Yes and Pink Floyd). You might start out with 'Firth of Fifth' (1973) from the album Selling England by the Pound. I look forward to your reaction.

    @surfwriter8461 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I'm curious to know more about your comment that there's a point where the notes don't seem to quite fit with the chords, but the overall vibe still works. Mark Knopfler is one of the highest rated guitarists in rock or other genres. He's known for his clean, highly melodic and creative finger picking style which very few rock guitarists use. I care most to hear your take on his style of guitar playing. The version of the song you're listening to is a shortened version, cutting quite a lot of guitar solo in the outro portion of the song.

    This music expresses the tragedy that is man. The need to kill one another instead of living in peace. This is about thanking, saluting, all soldiers no matter which side you are on. I would like to see war end because it is insane. This is sort of an anti-war song and a very emotional one. Brilliant piece of art. Thank you to Mark & Dire Straits for all the music you gave us. Music should be a religion. xoxo
