SjaanK85 I think you meant the best guitar player alive or dead. Mark is an absolute genius.
Telegraph road Basel part 2 is the best guitar performance I've ever seen.

[cdorresteijn]

Best piece of performance i have ever seen.
Every time i watch this concert i get the pimpels!

[peterhunger]

Mark Kopfler ist einer der Größten.
Going home dürfte kein Ende haben.
Einfach großartig!

[jumrilyunas]

I can feel what the music talked about. It is great and full of inspiration

[DogSwede]

I see.. Well, I personally think this one sounds better then the previous. Have you pressed the HD button?

[augustoluisvicente]

Como dicen mas abajo son unas bestias tocando aguante Dire Straits

[lpf]

dude this vid is the bomb and you know it. hail Mark the master of fingerpicking, damn you just can't enjoy heavenly music, can you? fwew glad i got that of my chest... now let's get carried away by the god. Love this post DogSwede1, man your vids own everybody!!

[DogSwede]

Which video do you mean? On the Night?

[cdorresteijn]

This song is called Wild Theme. Local Hero/Wild Theme is another song. The calm part sounds the same, but Local Hero/Wild Theme ends orchestral.

[SjaanK]

no, the same video, only that version wasn't in HD format. That one, i have in my favorites list and wheni play it from my favorites, it says that this video is now available in HD en this one ( the original) will be removed.

[JonasRosenven]

I liked the part with the stimpy and ren t-shirt!

[SjaanK]

The sound on the original video sounded better actually, much clearer. Why is that one removed anyway??? Nevertheless, a great song from thé best guitar player alive! Mark Knopfler is the Sultan

[batistabombwwecar]

with fender pickups?
in the end
it's the same with the same pickups

[SjaanK]

The thing i'm very suprised about is that in rolling stones top 100 best guitar players, mark is on 27, and the edge of u2 is on 21 :S The edge in a good guitar player in his own right, but he's absolutely no match for The Sultan, Mark Knopfler!

[VoteBNP]

Mark Knopfler is not the best guitar player alive.
He's the best guitar player alive or dead.
