I played for years before I realized that to be half as good as the guys I wanted to play like I was going to have to do nothing but study music and play guitar. My only consolation is that Mark is one of the few who plays with fingers the way I do. I'm only 70. I'll keep learning. ;)

I had never seen Knopfler live before, until 2019 at Wolf Trap, Va. Fortuitously, my friend had front row seats. Best show I've ever seen in my life. Kept hearing these amazing guitar licks, and I'd look around the stage at all the guitarists to see who was playing them, and it was always Mark Knopfler! I never knew. Definitely one of the best guitarists alive today. If you asked me if I wanted to see Paul McCartney and Ringo playing a reunion gig or Knopfler with his current band, I'd have to pick Knopfler. That's how good he is.

It's a little sad that just because Mark's such an amazing lead guitarist & and a story teller of a songwriter second to none, that most of us fail to really fully appreciate his fabulously unique vocals !

[@mrdfdowning]

Ha. I found his music because I heard him sing.

[@willurban6105]

Agreed

[@adamg6643]

Oh, I've always loved Mark's vocals as well. Do they have a ton of range? Perhaps not, but they're the ideal understated, narrator-style accompaniment to his music. To me he almost sounds like the Geordie rock version of a Morgan Freeman narration track... very steady, reassuring, deeply personal. Mark is a true artist and I believe he's well aware of his (few) limitations. He crafts his songs such that they suit his voice perfectly, IMO. Anyway, hope your Sunday suits you perfectly!

[@sitthapromwasphornsaran5736]

Mark's music is unique and his notes formations and the way they sound are even more unique. He has added another dimension to the way a guitar can possibly sing or cry.
