UseYourAppetite Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Anybody else on here a fan of Dire Straits or just Mark Knopfler? I'm just recently getting into them, I have to admit they're really amazing in my opinion and Knopfler is one of the best guitarists I've ever heard play. At the moment my favourite song is the epic Telegraph Road that guy sure knows how to solo and he plays with so much emotion in his music.Anybody else like them??

BrownRock Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Mark Knopfler is the best finger-picking guitarist at least in my opinion. Great band Dire StraitsGreat band, they play local hero at the Newcastle football matches when the players are coming out, one because it's a great song and two because Mark Knopfler is as local lad.

appetite4illusions Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 In light of what their peers were doing in the seventies, Dire Straits were without a doubt the most genuine. Great, great band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldwideboss Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Love them. I've got almost every release by them.I love their debut album and Communique, two albums that tend to be overshadowed by Making Movies and Brothers In Arms (even though these two are good in their own right).

Raw Power Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Mark Knopfler <3 <3 <3 Dire Straits was my first favorite band ever, Sultans of Swing was the first CD I ever bought. Brothers In Arms is on the top 5 list, over best albums ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
