As a pianist, you need to watch/listen to Telegraph Road Alchemy live.

@AnthonyKellett Месяц назад

Beat me to it... Totally agree 👍🏽

@martinarscott3524 Месяц назад

Absolutely essential viewing!

@MaydayMaydayMayday147 Месяц назад

Oh yeah, definitely the next one he should be looking at

@sherylstone8804 Месяц назад

I agree too

@jsamuelsen Месяц назад

As a non musician I agree.

@MinistryOfDarkness11 Месяц назад

Alan Clark is the keyboardist. Mark Knopfler is the lead guitar vocalist. Drummer is Terry Williams. Bass is John Illsley, rhythm guitar is Hal Lindes. There was also a couple of extras for the concert. Telegraph Road from this concert is so good where Alan Clark shines even more, you'll really love it. Cheers from Australia. 👍🎸🎸🎸

@hilogreg5216 Месяц назад

Great information, Aloha from Hawaii. The concert was at the end of the tour for the Love Over Gold album July 1983, The Alchemy concert is considered by many to be one of the best recorded live concerts ever. Their next tour was Brothers In Arms 1985/86 a sellout around the globe.

Tommy Mandel was the other pianist/percussionist/ dancer in the background

@peterlewis5151 Месяц назад

This concert was from London in 1983. The whole concert is stunning.... They are a British band formed in 1977.

@davidfeltz8697 Месяц назад

Stunning is an understatement. Total epic fire!

@daphnethurlow5388 Месяц назад

This old gal was there !

@fatimaemiko7073 Месяц назад

Well, I believe that if you watch Telegraph road, you will be entranced by the pianist and all them

@pmortara Месяц назад

Nice reaction! If you like the keyboarder, check out Telegraph Road from the same concert!

@philtully8431 Месяц назад

Treat yourself to Telegraph Road from Alchemy Live to hear Alan Clarke, the keyboardist shine.

@brigittereimprecht8334 Месяц назад

Terry Williams on drums (one of the best :-) ) and always perfect. The "Alchemy" concert was great, make sure you watch "Telegraph Road", an absolute masterpiece. You should watch "Tunel of Love" "Live Wembley 85", the end is so wonderful, you feel like you're flying. DS were always better live for me

@PJAlphaMusic Месяц назад

I'll check it out!

@pgskills Месяц назад

If you want to see the pianist really show his skills then you MUST check out Telegraph Road, also from Alchemy Live. Possibly the most amazing blend of piano and guitar work in that performance. You'll appreciate it, I think.

@martinarscott3524 Месяц назад

Liked and Subbed. The pianist really shines in Telegraph Road from the same concert, it's a very piano prominent piece

@toniw725 Месяц назад

I agree you should watch Telegraph Road from the same concert. You will love it.

@CRD0204 Месяц назад

Drummer is fire

@andrewplumb6544 Месяц назад

Thanks for this reaction. Definitely check out Telegraph Road from the same concert. Alan Clarke shines. It's another great bit of storytelling.

@PJAlphaMusic Месяц назад

I will check it out

@d.lawrence8059 Месяц назад

Mark always plays with his fingers!

@darkpitcher5242 Месяц назад

Every guitarist does but the offen use them to hold a pick. Mark plays finger style

@Pu1gcerda1 Месяц назад

There was two keyboard players one each side of the drummer

@katwestrich761 Месяц назад

Yes, many people don’t notice that. The guy on right has dark curly hair, the one (Alan) has light straight hair. His playing adds tremendously to Dire Straits sound. 👍

@williamjones6031 Месяц назад

The studio version of this is one of the best songs for cruising. Even road tripping. It's nice that you enjoyed it so much. What I love about this clip is how much fun they're having. Making a living like that wouldn't suck.🤑🤑🤑🤑 Shout out to the production crew. The filmography of this LIVE concert is incredible.🤩🤩

@peta8803 Месяц назад

love your reaction my dude, what i love about music from this time is it respected peoples attention, it gave you great music just pure and simple

@eturfrey Месяц назад

Mark Knopfler, Lead guitar Hal Lindes, Rhythm guitar John Illsey, Bass guitar Terry Williams, Drums Alan Clark, Keys And for these shows July 1983 additional guest keys, Tommy Mandel

@TheNotedHero Месяц назад

"Telegraph Road" from the same concert will grab your attention, for sure. The piano is great in it.

@matthewgenyas4454 25 дней назад

Music shouldn’t care about religion or peoples political issues.. this was a great example of music

@florisdejong4661 Месяц назад

Dire Straits, quite a unique band. Songwriting, instrumentation, singing style, and of course Knopfler's guitar make it hard to flag them as 70's or 80's band. And what can't be pinned on the timeline doesn't get outdated, still sounds fresh to me. Or maybe that's because I'm becoming the old geezer getting stuck on the timeline, hmmm 🤔

@dudaalbuquerque8128 Месяц назад

Take a look at TUNNEL OF LOVE, same Alchemy concert!

@aidiess 20 дней назад

Telegraph road from the same concert is, in my personal opinion, one of the best live performances ever recorded for a Rock band ! A masterclass of individual talents - you will love it !

@daphnethurlow5388 Месяц назад

Mark is recognized as one of the greatest guitarists - anywhere. I was at one of their concerts on this parrticular tour..London. yes he picks the guitar with his fingers..very gifted guy all round..and Super modest about all he has done...Yes pianist is classically trained...So glad you love the band...!!!!!

@bobmiller9313 Месяц назад

3finger pickin like a banjo. Awsome

@ajgrant1975 Месяц назад

You are correct, Mark Knopfler plays without a pick. Been watching him do it for about 20 years, I have no explanation for how it sounds like that. I'm told he has horrible, unconventional technique that makes guitar tutors cry.

@cliffwheeler7357 Месяц назад

Another great guitarist who doesn’t use a plectrum or pick, is the late and very great Jeff Beck.

@richardnanian2446 Месяц назад

Another outstanding (and self-taught) finger-picker is Lindsey Buckingham.

@jamesrowe3606 28 дней назад

It's true. Orthodox finger-picking uses the thumb for the three lowest strings (EAD) and the fingers for the high three (GBE). Mark Knopfler didn't stick to that. He used thumb and fingers however he felt. And it works!

@aidiess 20 дней назад

I beat you by twenty or more years years ! I'm 77 now and I listen to this album a couple of times a week ! I can remember exactly where I was and who I was with when I heard sultans of swing for the first time on a Juke box ! phenomenal band ! never be one like them again as they were unique !

@garrycroft4215 Месяц назад

This live performance was in London in 1983. You need to react to the encore “Telegraph Road”

@thelatenightbar Месяц назад

The other thing about this performance.. I believe this is a different drummer than on the original studio recording.. And the drummer is just going to town.

@maruka1716 27 дней назад

Yes, the band line-up changed a lot from the studio version in 1978 to the live version in 1983. The lead guitarist (Mark Knopfler) and bass player (John Illsley) stayed the same (and did so for as long as Dire Straits was a band). The 1978 version was arranged for four parts and featured Mark's brother David on rhythm guitar and Pick Withers on drums. The 1983 arrangement subs in Hal Lindes on rhythm guitar and Terry Williams on drums, and adds both keyboard players who weren't on the original.

@JG-fv9bv Месяц назад

Yes Mark Knopfler finger picks ..... one of the best

@jorgechavesfilho Месяц назад

Great reaction! In addition to Dire Straits, pianist Alan Clark has played for Bob Dylan, Tina Turner, Eric Clapton, The Bee Gees, Phil Collins, George Harrison, Elton John, Pet Shop Boys, The Who, Gerry Rafferty, Lou Reed, Rod Stewart, Van Morrison, Robbie Williams and Bruce Willis. Quite impressive.

@katwestrich761 Месяц назад

Wow 👍

@maruka1716 27 дней назад

The main keyboard player is Alan Clark, who has recorded with all sorts of people over the years as well as doing solo work. The lead guitarist (in red) is Mark Knopfler, who also wrote all the songs on all six Dire Straits studio albums and has done ten solo albums since then. He nearly always plays finger style, using his thumb and first two fingers. They're both in their 70s now. Mark has retired from live performance but released a new album in April 2024. He also owns a recording studio in London. Alan was still performing live in 2023... not sure about his plans for 2024.

@andrejbrumen8739 Месяц назад

Nice reaction ... "Telegraph Road" Alchemy Live (same concert) is definetly next to go: you will "hear" the beauty of pianist Alan Clark ... a real masterpiece song.

Shame about the copyrights across the video. Been reacted to hundreds of times with no issues.

@PJAlphaMusic Месяц назад

no, It literally blocked my video.

@riccardo4285 Месяц назад

Voci incontrollate riferiscono che dopo questa esibizione la chitarra di Mark Knopfler e la batteria di Terry Williams abbiano chiesto le ferie...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@markjordan8919 Месяц назад

It was the 1980s. The song was released in 1979.

@ector6187 Месяц назад

Yes, he is finger-picking. It is much more common in other genre's of music. For instance, you will never see a classical guitarist use a pick. It is also a common technique in bluegrass, country and folk music.

@_Common_Logic_ 2 дня назад

Staying on the C did EXACTLY as intended. You were expecting them to come back to the root, and they left you hanging... Wanting more... And YES we wanted more. :)

@MD44-s6p Месяц назад

Cool commentary.

@marcodebrabander5751 26 дней назад

Alchemy ('84) is the best and most perfect recorded live concert ever!

@aidiess 20 дней назад

agreed !

@JaimeCivantosCapella Месяц назад

He's not finger tapping, he is finger picking!!!

@santanamauricio Месяц назад

there where two keyboard players and this was 80's and the sound you heard on this song in not what you hear over the whole concert

@arnodobler1096 Месяц назад

If you delve deeper you will realize that Mark would have been a classical composer if he had been born 2 centuries earlier.

@user-ku9rr5lj2o Месяц назад

I agree you will love Telegraph Road

@deborahdennehy9937 Месяц назад

The brilliant Mark Knopfler is just incredible, yes it was in the 70's, I was a teenager then too!! 🥰🥰🥰

@jaynicholas523 Месяц назад

Check out telegraph road and tunnel of love live great reaction by the way

@sandrogattorno4962 10 дней назад

Yes is true :) The song is Dm and the end is a Cmaj. But, even tough is a rare occasion for a song (95% end in 1grade) can be used as a trick. Wend every brains is use to a tonality you can close the song in suspension and the solutions note come out from the public itself trough cry and bravo and clap. They feel an absence of somethings and so they scream to compensate. Sorry for my bad english.

@jeffreykennedy1266 Месяц назад

Great, great band…👍 Saw them live in the 80’s and it was unforgettable…

@justoalias Месяц назад

Telegraph Road of this concert is you song

@wolf762x51 Месяц назад

Yes, this was early 80s, and they'd fleshed the song out for long enough to be able to rearrange it into these longer versions live. They Keyboards / synths, electric piano's were linked through an early version of MIDI ( Musical Instrument Digital Interface), so the keyboard player could control all of his MIDI equipped instruments by himself. I started in 1984, and saw the power of MIDI for a keyboard player. I could run several synths, a drum machine, and a sequencer at one time. It allowed mt to input all the parts for each keyboard, including one programmed as a bass guitar, and trigger them all, and the start of the song with a footswitch. Then I could play the guitar parts over it, live. Sometimes I'd pick up a bass guitar for soloing with that, and any synth solos, I could fill a void intentionally left 0in programming to play a part on that, a run, that sort of thing. The early to mid 80s were a great time to be a pianist, because once you learned bass and guitar, along with drum programming and some live drums even, you were your own band. It was great for cutting demos. Writing new songs and having everything in its place for your bandmates and the like. Or, performing pieces of it live. MIDI changed the live and recording world, and as you know, all electronic synths, drums, etc, come factory with a MIDI interface today.

@isabelledrevet5913 Месяц назад

As a pianist, you really should listen to "Firth of Fifth" by Genesis... 😉 That masterpiece was composed by the great pianist Tony Banks.

@littleredridinghood5622 24 дня назад

Playing like it's a banjo ..

Nord live sessions: jd beck and domi sniff

@MarrionThompson Месяц назад

So, my question is can his riff be duplicated on a keyboard with all its intricacies?

@DUGGER1947 Месяц назад

Mark does some finger-tapping, but is basically a finger-style guitarist (picking the notes with his thumb and 2, sometimes even 3, fingernails). No pick (plectrum) is used in his style. Finger-style guitarists are few and far between in the rock music genre. Mark is a master. Steve Howe of Yes, and Jeff Beck are two other great ones.
