EC, JM, Derek Trucks, BBKing, SRV, they're all awesome in improvising & playing the blues, you can listen to them for hours. But no matter how amazed you are by their skills, if you listen to Mark Knopfler, it is different...epic. Like something that reaches perfection, or at least comes the closest. He plays in a league of his own ...... true story
Alan Clark is KEY player here. HE lead the song all the way to the end and make it timeless masterpiece. Mark must be very happy to.have a guy so profound like Alan in the band.
I could cry when Knopfler plays like this, he's the only one who can make me feel that emotional, there's something about his playing, absolutely perfect.
un brano leggendario..poi la chitarra in mano a Knopfler diventa qualcosa di miracoloso..negli anni che passano...un'eterna primavera...un incanto assoluto...divino
that ending solo, along with sultans of swing from wembley 1985 and a night in london, is the best solo ever. knopfler kicks everyone's ass, he is so awesome. best guitarist ever, no one will ever be better.
Just un believable .evrytime i watch this it just gets even better. Mark is by far the greatest guitarist i have ever seen . i seen a lot. how the hell he dioes that ??
Именно на этом концерте🎉 "Телеграф" прозвучал так кульминационно!!!🎉❤ Все музыканты были как, единный организм!!! Гитара Марка, буквальнно завораживала!!!❤
This, and the last dozen videos I've watched here again (for the umpteenth time), make me regret not ever having the opportunity to see Dire Straits in concert. I've seen some GREAT artists, but these guys may be the best ever.
Absolutely top-notch. This is my favourite DS gig and I would have loved to have been there. I can remember recording it on VHS when it was first broadcast!
I love how the band feels that there is something magic going on and start playing their best with the amazing Mark Knopfler to make one of the best live rock jams ever recorded. and this is from 1992!
I'm convinced that the part from 30 secs to about 1min-50 is what Douglas Adams is referring to in 'Hitchikers' as sounding like an angel crying. Just beautiful.
I'm 14 and i love this music. There's no law that you have to listen to music from your "era". One reason I don't is because IT SUCKS. A lot of artists are just wannabes who can't even play live, and some don't have the feeling for real music. This is the best music there is in my honest opinion. Everyone has got their own opinion, don't mix yours up with others.
totally agree with heBull25... best guitar player and no one will ever be better.. from some metallic thing like guitar to be produced such a organic sound; that only one can be capable to do and he simply is Mark Knopfler... a million thanks to you Mark
I went to this very concert back then, and I can tell you it was the best I've ever been to. After the show, we realized that they had played more than 2 hours, instead of the scheduled 1.5 h (encores included). Why? Well, they kept playing on and on during the encore because they enjoyed playing. At least, it was the feeling we had. They didn't do it for the money, yanno.
I see 3 dislikes in top right???? I wonder how anyone can dislike such a legendary singer/songwriter as MK. There's some odd people about. I know that it's a good job we're not all alike but still.........
I know what you are saying. Words/lyrics can only go so far. The next level is music/instrumentals - and still that leaves one lacking at times. There's no such thing as heaven on earth, but music helps!
@onnoman It's because you are appropriately in love with the sounds...it's the vibe, man.nothing the matter,,,nothing off....just you and the music ...like I am when I hear many of the Moody Blues pieces. Natural, baby. Roll with it. Tom in Utica NY
best version of one of the greatest songs ever. hands down, it doesn't get any better than this. maybe sultans of swing from wembley arena and night in london get anywhere close
this is just superb, would be even better had Terry Williams been on the drums he was i the Alchemy version. but still breathtaking all the same, MK is note perfect as always..

Literally the best guitar solo in the history of the world
+Pierre Belliveau Only second to Hendrix's All Along The Watchtower ;) (which kills absolutely everything)
No matter how hard anyone tries no one will ever be like Mark Knopfler period.

No question: he plays in a league of his own!
1992 was a golden year for Dire Straits, I love bootlegs from this year
It's amazing how they PUMP it more and more into the climax. This is pure rock 'n' roll orgasm. Unbelivable...
Chi vorebbe andare a paradiso quando abbiamo legendi come Mark Knopfler?
One of the best songs of all time!
Best live performance ever!
This concert (almost) makes me cry!

Outstanding and it never gets boring heared the songs thousands of times still the best!
Is a song about hard life love it tell a true story
in questi momenti . .stavi scrivendo la storia . . grazie Mark . .
Tuve la fortuna de ver a Mark hace unos años y aun cuando no tocó mi canción favorita "Brothers in Arms" fue un concierto espectacular ...
I love how the band feels that there is something magic going on and start playing their best with the amazing Mark Knopfler to make one of the best live rock jams ever recorded. and this is from 1992!
The whole band was so good. World class musicians
Just 4 words:
THAT IS PURE AWESOMENESS !!
Dont get any better than this !!!
nobody will be able to make a song like this ever.
Dire Straits o Mark Knopfler e helt underbara! Växte upp med dem och kan inte låta bli att lyssna på dem än idag.....
I'm convinced that the part from 30 secs to about 1min-50 is what Douglas Adams is referring to in 'Hitchikers' as sounding like an angel crying.
Just beautiful.
That jet-takeoff fadeout at the end...chills.
this epic song was the reason why i learned to play guitar^^
Great Band!
And great Stadium as well. R.I.P. Old "Joggeli" Stadium!

6:16 & 7:30 tickles, wiggles and giggles. The way he brings it home at 8:10 on is UNREAL.
This performance is really phenomenal.
I grew up with this music and I still listen to it, good to see old videos and live performances on here though... memories...
This is so well constructed. A timeless master piece.
this is so beautiful, Mark is the best.
Another masterpiece of live performance...Wish I was there for complete experience...
I love this song so much, and that solo!!! I could listen to it everyday...
no words to describe the feelings this sound bring to me
one of the most amazing songs of all time
thanks
Best song Dire Straits ever made!
ancré et inoubliable version
I'd give my 1st born child up to play like mk he is by far my fav guitarist. Just speaks to ur soul when he plays
GREAT PRESTATION !!!
Incroyable talent !!
Oui, CA c'est un incroyable talent !!!

Amen to all comments..........MK is beyond belief on that Pensa guitar........ none better!!!!!!!!
AND MARK KNOPFLER,
YOU ARE A HERO!
Ich lebe ein Steinwurf von Basel - konnte damals nicht anwesend sein - Video super!!
Love this to death.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what a guitarr player Mark
I have 3 versions of Telegraph Road and six versions of Sultans of Swing on my iPhone.
6:46 Alan Clark and Guy doing a decent headnod.
Best Dire Straits Video on youtube
Pure brilliance!
I know what you are saying. Words/lyrics can only go so far. The next level is music/instrumentals - and still that leaves one lacking at times. There's no such thing as heaven on earth, but music helps!
Knofler makes his guitar talk great singer and guitarist
Totally agree with you, that guitar seems to talk
Simply excellent. Thanks for sharing this. /bow
Last solo is awesome.. Whole song is awesome..
Masterwork!
I covered this particular version of the final solo in my channel. This version is gorgeous!!!
@onnoman It's because you are appropriately in love with the sounds...it's the vibe, man.nothing the matter,,,nothing off....just you and the music ...like I am when I hear many of the Moody Blues pieces. Natural, baby. Roll with it.
Tom in Utica NY
che suono.. fantastico
At 6:37 kinda sounds like a train horn i love it
best version of one of the greatest songs ever. hands down, it doesn't get any better than this. maybe sultans of swing from wembley arena and night in london get anywhere close
Fenomeno in terra!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So great he is telling a story with hi guitar
I love this...
that was purely awesome！！
@DogSwede1 Awesome. This is by far my favorite band along with the guys he's playing with now. Just outstanding music.
When you are young, you want playing guitar. But my father listens to MK, ... seeing this : no chance to play guitar. lol.
MK is a god !
akárhányszor nézem , mindig hihetetlen.
I LOVE YOU DIRE STRAITS
senza parole
reminds me of " GRASSHOPPER" Cause Mark is the Master !!! absolute freaking master av you ever seen anybody bend up 4 strings before??
bu şarkının verdiği keyfi hiç bir kelime anlatamaz sanırım ..
Chris witten on drums is amazing
O melhor de sempre!!!!
The one on the compilation album is from the Alchemy gig. :)
Bluegrass version in Czech: Poutníci - Telegrafní cesta (Telegraph Road) also very good.
It's a Pensa Suhr MK1. Fantastic guitar.
