    Why would you cut off the end?

    In the mid-1970s in London, Mark Knopfler (lead guitar, vocals, writer) was out with some friends. They ducked into a dingy little pub to get out of the rain. They found themselves in a nearly deserted room, with just a handful of patrons propping up the bar, but in one corner was a live band playing Dixieland jazz. Despite the small, disinterested audience (who 'don't give a damn about any trumpet-playing band'), they were putting their heart and soul into the music, playing like they were in a packed house of screaming fans. At the end of their set, the band's leader stepped up and announced grandly "Thank you everyone, we are the Sultans of Swing!" The grandiose name compared to the modest surroundings struck a cord with Knopfler, and this song was the result. It's a love letter to small-time musicians, the ones who play for love of the music, don't chase trends, and don't apologise for who they are.

    Love Dire Straits. They are a great British rock band from the 70's-90's. Mark Knopfler is one of the best guitarists around. They have had so many hits including "Brothers In Arms", "Romeo & Juliet", "Private Investigations", "Twisting By The Pool", "Money For Nothing", "Walk Of Life", "Telegraph Road", "So Far Away" etc. They don't have a bad song.

    Its possibly the best live performance on You Tube and I'm really pleased you are sharing it with friends and showing their reactions.
    As you say, you can watch it over and over!
    I have seen it so many times, I was there when it was filmed and it is full of so many memories. The whole place was rocking, I was on the balcony (just out of shot a few rows back and you could feel it bouncing!
    For me, at the time and re-watching it, Terry Williams on the drums smashed it out of the park. I think we knew how good he others were.
