Surfing Youtube with a bottle of Fonseca and a nice kush and came across this tune. Makes me understand why I loved Dire Straits so much back in the day. Hope you enjoy.

I’m not a fan of port but I’m a fan of that video!

Bassdog turned me onto Dire Straits many years ago and I can’t listen to their music without those good times coming to mind.


thanks for the earworm, John!

Knopfler is a god in guitar player circles. I'm not a huge fan but certainly appreciate his talent. He's a disciple of Chet Atkins and the unique style he brought to the world.

I still remember the first time I heard Sultans of Swing and was just wowed as the sound was totally different than anything else getting any air play.

Romeo and Juliet is one of my all time favorites of Dire Straits. That, and Heavy Fuel. And My Party, and ......all of ‘em.

I liked some of their hits, but never was a fan really. Along the lines of Chix, the first hit I remember was "Sultans of Swing". I liked it, but didn't "love" it.

As for the video, it was cool (and HOT at the same time). ;) I just can't believe NONE of those gals had banged up knees or elbows. They wore no pads, but surely they had to have fallen a bazillion or so times. :huh
