Quality and excellence are not forgotten, what wonderful memories. With these melodies, I did schoolwork. Today I am 58 years old, THANK YOU Mark Knopfler and Dire Strites.
This is surely the best version of the tour, and one of the best version of Money For Nothing ever, If not THE greatest ever. Tone is perfect, the energy is all there, the song results to be raw; excellent musicianship, superb arrangement (those brass are fabulous) and the second solo is a masterpiece!
this is so good.....i just learned it on guitar and cannot stop playin it........the groove is so hot, lucky me my first years on guitar was with no pick, so it was kind of easy a bit, but still had to practice cause Mark has a unique touch.........love it and this version, the camera is focussing on the guitar.....
Thank you Mark for your music, your words, the way you can play guitar, your voice and all what you are. You were beside me during the worst moments of my life. Never forget you. Take care of yourself old favorite guitar player.
This video makes me sad. I remember Dire Straits in peak of their career, I remember Brothers In Arms coming out and had it on CD, and I've seen them live in 1992. Mark Knopfler was one of my guitar heroes and it's sad to see him get old (I know, we all get old). I just want to remember him when he was in the peak of his career and was my guitar hero.
é de arrepiar o cara da bateria Mesmo com o passar dos anos ele bota muito baterista no bolso o cara já fazia tremer no ano de1985 e 39 anos depois ele continua arrebentando na bateria. eu tive um privilégio de acompanhar essa banda nos meus 4 anos de idade adorei o dir strais
With all the hemming and hawing on youtube about how to exactly play money for nothing the way Mark Knoppfler did on the recording, the "I've got it right and you don't" claims and the posturing... Here's Mark himself not even trying to recreate the original recording at all, but still it sounds great. Let this be a lesson to you gatekeepers - It doesn't HAVE to be exactly like the recording to be "correct". The artists themselves don't even bother to try to make them sound exact.
Mark even said he found the album version too clean. Every single live version is different and he has done a lót of concerts. I enjoy all of them. The basics are always the same though, especially the marks unique right hand technique. In my opinion that is the key to getting the sound right.
Mark & the boys sound great here! I remember when this song came out. I was with the 9th Infantry Div. We had been on a deployment for so long we were like "wtf is Mtv?"
He’s dialed it back a bit here so it sounds more like the album… if you listen to how he really plays it nowadays it’s pretty different, loads of nice little touches
Excellent performance captured with high-quality video of the whole performance. MK wails on the solo in the outro portion of the song. The band configuration is a little confusing to me--not sure who some of these folks are, but it's definitely a fuller group than would have been there in the past.
Even on the album, terry only played the intro, the rest of the song was done by Omar Hakim . Terry was or is one hell of a drummer, make no mistake :)
