Nothing more satisfying than seeing someone discover Dire Straits for the first time. Welcome to one of the most incredible bands of all time. There are so many amazing Songwriters and guitarists out there But Mark Knopfler is at the very top of the pile for me. The man is a living legend. This whole band are stellar. Enjoy discovering some more absolute masterpieces going forward. Oh and it's amazing for me to discover you. I can't wait to see you react to more Dire Straits / Mark Knopfler songs.
He’s the best guitarist of all time! Yes.
@@GwenMotoGirl of course, it's very subjective and not really does such a thing exist. he certainly my favourite of all time and personally to me, his playing hits me like no other musician on the planet. I would never have picked up a guitar at the age of 15 had I not seen MK. that was 30 years ago .. nothings changed lol
I was going to say exactly the same thing.
@@xxFORDIExx that’s lovely.
That's right.
Mark Knopfler is a genius guitar player.
A guitar god if you want.
Mark Knopfler is the vocalist and one of the great guitarists of all time. Thanks ADogg! 💯💯💯
such a smooth style.
style. it seems as if it lost these days. all technical.
YOU GOTTA DO "MONEY FOR NOTHING."
Mark:
'When I’m working on a solo, I don’t really know how it comes about. I think not being able to sing means the guitar becomes like a voice and you make it do things that you wouldn’t do otherwise. Perhaps if you can’t sing, you push a little harder with your instrument'
And an epic vocalist!
One name: Terry Williams - on drums, that dude carries the song like his whole life depends on it. Such an amazing performance from the whole band!
"Stolen" from Dave Edmunds Rockpile & MAN
Pick Withers was the drummer on this song.
@@billnightfire9081 not this version. Pick had been replaced by Terry when this concert was recorded. (Alchemy Live)
Amen to that, my friend!!!
@@billnightfire9081 no, Pick had left Dire Straits by then. He did first 4 studio albums. Was replaced by that drummer Terry Williams.
In my opinion this is the greatest live performance ever filmed.
The album version of the song is 6 minutes long, the single was cut down to 4 minutes, and this one is over 10. So you can tell they had some fun with it
It's good, but I prefer, '25 or 6 to 4,' by Chicago. Less theatrical.
I always think what it would have been like going to this concert only having heard the album version, then getting this.
@@mcjs8640 Also fantastic, thanks for reminding me
It was the best live performance I have ever attended, though Band Aid came pretty close.
I couldn’t agree more. The one album I’d have to have
Dire Straits is in the category of being a musicians band. Everyone in the industry respected them. Mark was noted for never playing a song twice the same way!
My playlist includes three separate live performances of Going Home and two live versions of Sultans. One with from Wembley and this one.
'Brothers in Arms' is a brilliant song from them. Also, 'Money for Nothing' has a really fun music video.
"Brothers in Arms" the Album is their best, if you only get one, get that
@@llothar68 if I had to reduce my Dire Straits collection down to one single Album,
it would be Alchemy live.
This band definitely has their own sound. There are so many great bands but only Dire Straits sound like Dire Straits. So awesome!!
Credence C. Revival, they've got their own sound,ie, tell It's C.C.R..
Mark Knopfler's guitar tone is one of the most recognizable in rock history.
That, in my opinion, is THE BEST live performance of all time! The power, the precision, the passion, the talent, the voice! And of course the pure guitar genius of Mark Knopfler and the dramatic driving drums of the one and only Terry Williams, both playing as if their lives depended on it, leaving absolutely everything they have out on that stage! Just brilliant! You won't see anything like that today, I guarantee it!
Knopfler makes that guitar do everything most guitar players dream about, and that mad drummer is the most underrated in the world
I wish I could go back forty years and hear Dire Straits for the first time again. They've been my favourite band since I bought their first album when it came out.
There are incredible guitarists, and then there are those guitarists with a sound so unique that you can recognize them by sound alone, even if you’ve never heard the song before.
You can allways reconize M.K.s sound.
Who else was waiting for 'that' guitar solo? Man, that awesome. I miss musicians like this. Try Private Investigations, Telegraph Road, Brothers in Arms, Romeo and Juliet, and Skateaway. Mark Knopfler (pronounced Noff-ler) on lead guitar and vocals, he makes it looks so damn easy.
And what about :
Tunnel of Love
Six Blade Knife
It never rains
Planet of New Orléans
Water of love
Wild West End
Ride Across the river
So far away
Private Investigation
Where do you think you going
Once upon a time in the west
Single handed sailor
Calling Elvis
The Bug
Millionaire Blues
Walk Of Life
You And Your friend
...... ???
His guitar style is unique. Him, his brother and Lindsay Buckingham are the only ones I’ve seen. No pick, just index and middle finger with the thumb alternating. This gives that pluckey twang sound dire straits are so well known for. Hard to master.
That's true talent: making the incredibly hard looking incredibly easy.
So true…I’m always waiting for the thrill of that solo!!
I'm a bit late to the party here but it's awesome to see a younger person appreciate what I was so privileged to be a part of as a child of the 70s. Keep on keepin' on brother - I love your enthusiasm!
I loved your reaction. Telegraph Road from the same concert is the greatest live performance of the greatest rock song ever written in my opinion. I have been listening to it for nearly 40 years and it still amazes me. The musicianship of the whole band is breathtakingly brilliant. For me Mark Knopfer is not only the greatest guitarists of all time but and absolutely brilliant storyteller. You have lots to look forward to!!! Thank you.
It's the best song ever especially every live performance and every one has differences from the other and they're all awesome right up to marks latest solo tour a few years ago at age 70. What a legend 😊
I second that, I bought Alchemy the day it was released, I can listen to it and still find something new, stunning .
Completely agree that Telegraph Road would be an excellent next choice.
bang on. I would sit and listen to dire straits for hour after hour... so uplifting and euphoric. one of the greatest bands ever and for me .. pound for pound ... they are the best ...
I like later, more complex (more instruments) versions of TR such as this one th-cam.com/video/Bo4vL513cBU/w-d-xo.html
Man, Mark and Terry. Fucking legends. This has to be one of the best live performances in history.
Notice how much the musicians watch each other, and especially watch Knopfler. This tells you that they've been playing together long enough and are talented enough to be able to "read" and enhance each other.
"Sultans Of Swing", "Hotel California", and "Freebird" are outros that you wish would never end.
And smile at each other, it shows they love what they are doing too, Pink Floyd do the same.
Dire Straits definitely one of the greatest bands! They have their own unique sound. One of my favorites for sure!
My first ever proper concert was Dire Straits live in '85, still my favorite. Mark Knofler is a guitar god.
Me too. Portland Civic Center in Maine.
Great reaction! You’ve got to check out their song, “Money For Nothing!” It was one of the first videos on MTV!
Another song you need to check out is, “The Walk of Life!”
Actually it was not one of the first songs to be played on MTV. This song came out a few years after the Buggles, Major Tom, etc... Cool story though bro. But you are wrong. Mtv debuted in 1981. This song came out in 1985. So there are four years of music in between the Buggles and Money for Nothing. Which is a great song. But far from one of the first ever played on MTV. Video killed the Radio Star by the Buggles is the very first song ever played on MTV. Im wanting to say Major Tom by Peter Schilling was the second. I need to go listen to Major Tom, its been a long long time since ive heard it. I used to like it alot. Maybe you should check that one out? I dont think you would regret it.
@@suicyco4life666 Second was Pat Benatar, You better run. And I remember the Morning Money for Nothing was played because my bro and I were at a mates house about to go for a BMX ride. We weren't even watching the TV, we were getting ready to go and that riff came on and we were all like, WTF is this.
@@suicyco4life666 it was the first one on MTV UK ;)
@@suicyco4life666 MONEY FOR NOTHING was the first song played on MTV Europe.
I love Dire Straits, and it would have been a thrill to have seen that performance live! Thanks for the review, as I have never seen this particular one.
The drummer was playing for a family member in the crowd who was finally able to see him live.
Brothers in Arms , such a poignant beautiful work of art !
Your face when you see Terry williams on drums was brilliant. One of the best drummers ever tbh a Welsh legend. The whole band was on point that night in Hammersmith. One of the very best live performances of any band.
That drummer! Holy shit! Terry Williams, he is amazing.
You have the best smile when you’re loving good sound like Dire Straits!!
Mark Knopfler continues to churn out astounding albums even today. (decades post Dire Straights)
Shangri La is an effing masterpiece.
Mark is probably the #1 finger-style guitar hero ever. He really made that his own.
Wellcome to dire world....iam ivoirien from africa i am 45 yearrs now....i love dire since m'y 12 years in 1987
You'll be hard pressed to find a better performance anywhere by anyone. It still gives me chills every time I listen to it. Give Telegraph Road a spin and buckle up!
The amazing Mark Knophler, a brilliant poet, composer, guitarist one of the wonders of modern music.
I have watched this hundreds of times and it is always like the first time. Its THAT good. Another live performance by Dire Straits that I think you will like a lot is, Dire Straits Private Investigations 1986 Sydney LIVE pro-shot.
It's so cool, because their live recordings tend to have insane sound quality.
Dire Straits were basically a bunch of complete audiophiles and perfectionists. Nothing less than the best was good enough.
I consistently return to the Alchemy album, recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon. The album, recorded in 1983(!), has better sound quality than most studio albums that come out almost 40 years later!
Dire Straits are one of my absolute favorites. Forever and ever. Mark Knofler is a guitar god and an incredible songwriter. They are sadly underappreciated, but I'm so happy when I see people discovering them for the first time.
True story: went to see the Brothers in Arms show as a high school student. Noticed that my English teacher was several rows below with his friends. After the the lights went dark they started passing around a joint. Went down to join in and after an ackward moment he caved. Still was a tough grader though but my buddy and I respected his privacy and kept our mouths shut.
Lol. I was an English aide my senior yr, 1975. She taught me how to write and love myself. I won't give her name.
In the spring she invited me to her log cabin in the rural hills of a Tennessee county. She nervously pulled out a J....TN hills are fun walking stoned with someone who cares about where you're going and how you'll manage your life.
I did ok.
Retired now but I think of her often. Thnx Mrs. C !
PS... Retirement is good. I walk the hills, high, and no one to answer to but me. 😂😂
Will always be sentimental for me - My Dad bought me took me to see Dire Straits as my first ever live concert. They literally smashed it out like this for 3 hours straight!
Check out their song "6 blade knife."
Also "Water of love".
And Mark Knopfler's "Song for Sonny Liston".
Some great ones by them include Brothers in Arms, Romeo and Juliet, Walk of Life, and Money for Nothing.
Mark Knopfler is one of the most overlooked guitarists of all time. It's incredible! You've got to check out their song Brothers in Arms. It's one of my all time favorite songs. You'll understand why after you hear it
He's not overlooked by other guitarists/people who know music! ;-)
If anything it's Terry Williams on the drums that gets overlooked, especially at this concert.
Love watching people react to this performance. This was a solid hit single for them when it came out, and later on for awhile, they were the best band in the world--this performance captures them at their best, and my favorite thing is that the drummer, who was a hired gun, almost steals the damned show.
A magnificent performance. Knopfler is one of the best guitarists who ever lived. And wrote the songs.
No one makes a guitar sound like that.
Saw them the same tour this video was filmed. Best show I ever saw.
Watching you watch this made me smile! I love it when people expand their musical horizons. Keep it up Bruh!🤘👍
My hubby took me to see them on this tour for my birthday. A loud mouth drunk guy 2 rows in front of us was loudly bragging about how he was their biggest fan. The announcer introduced them as being British and the loud mouth guy exclaimed " What! I did not know they were from England!" I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants. Poor guy got hecked so much security moved him somewhere else.
"Money For Nothing" was the very 1st music release that was digitally mastered start to finish "DDD".
It is not important how many times you watch them live, they constantly astound you - utterly brilliant!
I've got goosebumps all over watching you discover this awesomeness!!! Great reaction!! Merry Christmas !!!!
Dire Strait with Mark Knopfler-- the best band ever ! He is a Guitar God !
Mark Knofler never misses a note. Amazing guitarist and singer.
Good to see Terry getting his dues. Swansea legend!
So refreshing to see your reaction to this masterpiece. Dire Straits were incredible and Mark Knopfler has gone on to have a lengthy and highly successful solo career. One of, if not the greatest guitarist and songwriter of all time. You should check out more songs from the Alchemy tour. Telegraph Road and Tunnel of Love from this same performance are both incredible. Enjoy your Dire Straits journey!
Knofler's use of dynamics is amazing. On that tour (Alchemy) it is reported he never played a duff note.
You get a shiver in the dark
It's a raining in the park but meantime-
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie, double four time
You feel alright when you hear the music ring
Well now you step inside but you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain they hear the jazz go down
Competition in other places
Uh but the horns they blowin' that sound
Way on down south
Way on down south
London town
You check out guitar George, he knows-all the chords
Mind, it's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
They said an old guitar is all, he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
And Harry doesn't mind, if he doesn't, make the scene
He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright
He can play the Honky Tonk like anything
Savin' it up, for Friday night
With the Sultans
We're the Sultans of Swing
There’s a crowd a young boys they're a foolin' around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best baggies and their best Kings road
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playin' band
It ain't what they call Rock and Roll
And the Sultans
Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole
Creole
And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
And says at last just as the time bell rings
"Goodnight, now it's time to go home"
Then he makes it fast with one more thing
"We are the Sultans
We are the Sultans of Swing"
Many thanks for the lyrics...
Thank you!! I feel like great lyrics are often missed, sometimes they're hard for some people to catch. 😊💜💚💛✌️
I was lucky growing up and having such amazing music! I was a kid in the 60’s, a teenager in the 70’s seeing some amazing bands live and a young adult in the 80’s. I am almost 60 in a few months and I have been fortunate to have gone to more than 200 concerts and counting! Yup I still go and will continue to go till all my artists are gone or I am. 😎 ✌🏻&❤️ Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Me too! Happy Birthday and Happy Holidays!
@@j.h.3777 Thanks. Happy Holidays to you as well🎄
This is a superior video of a solid performance, too. The drummer goes crazy from the beginning, too. This is an album band, too - don't cheat yourself by only listening to their hits - their whole albums are experiences to enjoy.
Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Healey, Jeff Beck, Mark Knopfler, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour, Eric Clapton, Richard Thompson, SRV and EVH- my 10 faves in order. Check out the Alchemy Tour version LIVE of "Telegraph Road". btw the band personnel here on Alchemy Tour are different from the record... Hal Lindes on rhythm guitar (Mark's little bro walked) and the amazing Terry Williams on drums (late of Dave Edmund's Rockpile) supplanted Pick Withers. Peace from Canada- Merry Christmas and be safe.
Jimi hendrix, Knopfler, Gilmour, Clapton y Juan Valdivia (Heroes silencio) mi top 5.
@@joseandoain9418 You're missing this: Jeff Healey - As The Years Go Passing By |
th-cam.com/video/gIkOaTVu8uM/w-d-xo.html . Please send back a performance video of Señor Valdivia, s'il vous plaît. Peace.
A lot of the Brits inspired by Hank Marvin of the Shadows, who was also from the Newcastle upon Tyne, like Knopfler
@@silverknight4886 I'm Canadian now, but from Gravesend originally- we know all about Hank. But- for my friends, it was Lonnie Donegan was the bigger influence, and Robert Plant and Roger Daltrey agree (in an interview on YT somewhere). Peace.
Love watching you experience this performance for the first time! MK is at his most spectacular string-plucking best here. The whole thing is just incredibly tight. Top notch everything!
Of all the things that makes these guys amazing the fact that they never end this track quite the same way twice, when it's been performed live, is truly an amazing thing.
They just let loose and improvise their way out of the song. I love that you can hear them all taking turns to 'lead' them into a slightly different direction at various points. They work so well together and seamlessly follow one another's leads.
As much as I love the studio version's amazing guitar-solo outro, I can never get enough of their live outros. So, so good.
Mark Knopfler is a fabulous guitarist who is full of "tasty" licks and this is a great video to be introduced to the band Dire Straits. I love that you loved the song and the performance. Mark has gone on to have an amazing career playing the guitar mostly in the acoustic genre. His finger picking style is very unique in Rock and Roll it is more commonly found in country, folk and classical. Great review, let's do some more. Would love to hear the live version of Telegraph Road
You simply MUST listen to 'Brothers in Arms' by Dire Straits, you will be amazed at the difference between what you have here and 'BiA'.....it will leave you gobsmacked as we say in the UK and speechless.
This is one of the most underrated bands of all time. Mark knopfler is amazing.
Underrated? By whom? If you mean not duly appreciated by the masses, you may be right regarding the masses in some (isolated) areas of the world. But Dire Straits' artistry is duly appreciated by true music aficionados worldwide.
@@MetteC5 I just meant I never hear them mentioned amongst the “greats.” Like- there are people who think Depeche Mode is better than dire straits just because they’ve heard more songs. Lol.
@@LemmyGibbler Yes, people among the masses (see my 1st comment), not music aficionados.
@@MetteC5 actually I’m referring to top 10s and such lists in print, online, etc. clearly, people who know, know. People who think AC/DC are good have no clue how awesome dire straits was. We agree, we are just saying it differently.
@@LemmyGibbler ok, thanks for clarifying and indeed :)
One of my favorite bands - I was so lucky to see them live many times. Always a great show and Knopfler is a genius with his guitar.
Awesome reaction to a great live performance! Treat yourself to the studio album version as to catch every bit of greatness 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’ve seen so many live acts in my 50 yrs stones ,Dylan ,police,dr hook,the boss most Aussie bands but dire straits is still my most memorable
Thanks for all the good music from Germany!
From our home to yours, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season! Stay safe and take care.
Very good reaction and very sympathetic reactor who truly loves genuine music, thank you! Dire Straits are a genius band with a God- given talent.
Once upon a time in the west, water of love, tunnel of love, down to the waterline,fade to black , you and your friend, where did you think you are going? Switch blade knife. Remember Money for Nothing? Best guitar man
This played a lot on early MTV. Merry Christmas Adogg! 🎄🎄🎄💝
perfect....saw them 79-80 shortly after this was released.Orange County Fairgrounds ,Costa Mesa,Ca.outside stage ,we were sitting on the grass on a summer night.
Oh yeah my favourite band, young kid in the mid 80s till now in my mid 40s
dance beat.... and they have so much fun!!!! It's contagious
It does my heart good to witness a young man discovering Southern Rock for the first time. You’re doin good !…keep exploring !
Happy New Year Adogg!!! "Sultans of Swing" with the guitar licks & the drummer is absolute FIRE!!!
It’s funny. I discovered this channel yesterday because of the Bee-Gees saga and instantly thought about a reaction to the 84 Alchemy rendition of Sultans of Swing. It happened literally the next day! Thank you for doing this. In a way it’s like reliving these emotions for the first time again through somebody else’s eyes. Very cool.
I watch a lot of reactions but have never seen yours before. After watching two I have to say you're one of my favourite.
Dire Straits had many well-written, compelling songs like 'My Parties, 'Bug,' and 'On Evrery Street,' just to name a few.
Mark Knofler wrote great music for the movie, "The Princess Bride." That movie is a classic.
I’m a white grandma with two black grandchildren . I love your enthusiasm and smile . I sat by my granddaughter and we watched your reaction to Walk of Life . It was the best . I also loved your Pentatonix reactions . You’re a sweetie . Keep that smile.
Mark Knoffler is simply AMAZING! He once said sometimes when the song is over, the guitar still has things to say!
MONEY FOR NOTHING
TELEGRAPH ROAD
BROTHERS IN ARMS are absolutely MUSTS for you.
Dire Straits Telegraph Road LIve Alchemy Tour. Best guitar solo ever!
Romeo and Juliet is wicked amazing too. But really everything they do is unique and touches all aspects of the universal language of music.
The thing that makes dire straits, dire straits is that every performance is different. Knopflers improvisation is flawless
Live. No computers, auto tune just perfection.
Knopfler can play guitar 🎸.
That drummer leaves me speechless.
The drummer's dad was in the audience to see his son for the first time and wanted to put on a show. His dad said before the show he wanted to see what his son really did to buy that fancy house and car and making sure its legal
Knopfler an all-time great. Try their “Tunnel of Love”, Telegraph Road” or, for a change of pace, “Brothers in Arms”.
Love Tunnel of Love, solo at the end 🔥
From this same 'Alchemy Live' concert, check out 'Telegraph Road'. Every bit as good if not better than this. My personal favourite performance!
This is the best live performance of any band anywhere anytime. The drummer needs an award for this of some kind. “Walk of life” is the next favorite song by them. Live of course.
Memories, memories... thank you so much! These are an amazing band and back in the day we’re unlike anyone else and remain so. I love to see such music running down through to the next generation. Great music always impresses and lasts always. Great reaction! Merry Christmas 🎄🎁🎂💕
MORE DIRE STRAITS!!! BROTHERS IN ARMS!! AND "GOING HOME" (Theme From Local Hero)!👍👍
Hey thanks so much for covering Dire Straits. I very rarely watch reaction videos, but saw your Telegraph Road video earlier and enjoyed your reaction and your big smile discovering this insanely great band; they’ve been my favorite for decades now.
I’m sure others answered your question but just in case, this iteration of Dire Straits (my personal favorite) is:
Mark Knopfler-Lead guitar, singer, composer, general musical genius
John Illsley-Bass guitar
Hal Lindes-Rhythm guitar
Alan Clark-Keyboards
Terry Williams-Drums
I think this is a real musician’s band as everyone is so good at their craft and they play so well together. I’m always amazed by Mark’s unnatural abilities with a guitar, and Terry is an incredibly powerful drummer: he’s always on time and never seems to get tired. The whole band is just pure fire.
I’m really glad you tried them out and loved it!
Recommendations are hard to do as there are so many. I saw you did Telegraph Road already which is an amazing work; the other one from Alchemy I particularly recommend is “Tunnel of Love”, but it would be hard to make a bad pick!
Thanks for the great reaction!
Private Investigations is I think their most known song. Telegraph Road live from the Alchemy tour is the best 11 minute ride you can get.
Knopfler has played Sultans a thousand times , refining his solo. Dozens of live performances available but this is one of the best
I've been a fan since this came out on radio! Top 10 band for me. I saw the main guy, Mark Knopfler, play a solo show in Indiana around 2005. It was a spectacular show!
I recommend "Telegraph Road" and "Romeo & Juliet." Will change your life!
and Private Investigation live
Great suggestions!
I cry every time I hear Romeo & Juliet. Something about that song just brings tears to my eyes. Absolute genius.
You gotta check out the studio version of this, too. The instruments come through more clearly, especially Knofler's tasty guitar licks. And BE SURE to get the extended--six minute--version. Too many folks have reacted to the shorter one and totally missed out, so if it says 4 minutes, keep on looking.
May I recommend Dire Straits' live performance of Tunnel of Love at Wembley Stadium from around 1985.
Its a BIBLICAL performance with sounds from heaven
This is exactly why oldtimers like me say today's music sucks. There were so many great bands back then.
Saw them on 92'. Best gig of my life. Mark Knopfler is my guitar hero and one of the most iconic guitar player of the time. Check out Alchemy live, every song is pure gold, my fav is "telegraph road"
Mark Knopfler is the lead guitar and Vocals. The tall guy on the left is John Ilsley, the Bass player. The Drummer at this time was Terry Williams. Hal Lindes was the 2nd guitarist to the right and Alan Clarke is the keyboardist. If you want a couple more epic performances, Try either Tunnel of Love or Telegraph Rd.
Often overlooked is the incredible drum work in this song.
You mentioned the audience is so happy - FYI - this song was a super big hit back in the day! Much loved!
