I did my own investigations... Dire Straits is the best band and MK is the coolest guy in this universe ✨️

[@1973HenkY]

Some might argue Pink Floyd and David Gilmour are in the same conversation...

[@denise0223]

I hear you loud & clear. Die hard MK fan since '78. Hard core! 🎸🎸🎸

I agree 100%

[@solomonoverhead]

Ahhhh! Now this is what the world needs much more of!

[@lydiabentley3413]

True

[@rade95]

Mark is one of the best guitar players of all times. And his voice is legendary and truly amazing. I am 63 and i ve been your fan since I was 20. No other band has come even close to what you have produced.

[@andrewdrummond1244]

They were a very British band. The US, Australia, or anywhere else on the planet do not produce this quality rock music.

[@lydiabentley3413]

@@andrewdrummond1244 I agree

This is music!!! I hope one day will restore and realise this wonderful concert. Dire Straits forever!!!

Yes, those were the times when music was still made by musicians. I am grateful to have grown up in this creative times.

[@catzenhouse]

Hearing/seeing this in concert was such a total physical experience - you are body-slammed with sound and visual effects. In a magnificent way. Was lucky to have seen them perform this live twice and will never forget how it felt to be in the middle of all of this marvelous music.

[@olivermarx1243]

Best would be to see the concert remastered in a cinema

[@CarinTibellAhlin]

I don't think there will ever be another guitarist and songwriter "dancing in Mark Knopfler's shoes", no matter how hard they try. And, how come he's always even greater performing live? Thank you Mark and Dire Straits for your hard work and dedication, bringing live music of the highest quality imaginable, to so many of us. 🙏🎶❤ Always, since '78 Carin

[@guitardave]

Can’t wait for Brothers In Arms from this concert - one of the best versions I’ve heard!

[@AWguitar2006]

on the night is the best imo

[@MrBillRizer]

I always loved the Mandella concert version, watched it live as a kid with my Dad and wore down that VHS recording!

[@guitardave]

@@MrBillRizer yeah that’s brilliant. No sign of them releasing that concert though sadly. Maybe one day…

[@ratsters7]

Everything is subjective, but for me, this was one of their very very best concerts - they were on fire that night. And yes - Brothers In Arms was just epic!

[@richarddejager9267]

Respect vocals and music

[@pumatrejo75]

So great Dire Straits!!!

[@zarkopetrovic7472]

Dear God, this cannot be described in words!

[@kathymacdonald7552]

Ahh, a long time favourite. Brilliant MK and stage presentation. Great band.

[@williamhashimoto797]

Can't wait for Tunnel Of Love from this show: the best version ever IMO

[@jonmath4182]

Really? Oh man I have to listen to it!

[@nickjones3222]

Yes exactly this. It’s absolutely tremendous. This seems much higher quality video and audio of this concert than I’ve seen before. 👍

[@rogerspencer5064]

Me too, the best version, love the intro

[@richarddejager9267]

Mark Knopfer thank's for all the vocals and extreme music

[@Firecatsfun]

Finland here at the concert in Helsinki 1985. Beautiful songs and performances makes me cry, as happened then also in your concert. Thank you for the music you have given us and to the next generations❤

[@user-fp6cy8ev8f]

Masterpice!!!

[@PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

Great song, great live version.

[@lydiabentley3413]

[@CalinGilea]

Just feel the suspense, anxiety and fear introduced by the slow repetitive bass line that Mark Knopfler communicates with this song. It's simply amazing and a great work of art! Everything slowly builds up in a few minutes, then culminates with Jack's distorted guitar entry and then slowly recedes...

[@chardington3412]

My first time hearing it was on a mono radio over Luxembourg Radio - I was so impressed I went out as soon as it arrived in Denmark and bought the album - I still think it is way too short - it could easily have been much longer and still be as good. But now I just have to hear it over and over when ever I come across it. 🤭

[@carlosoxford]

You are the Best Mark 🤠👏

[@mohammedslaoui2984]

Un vrai compositeur.. 🎸🎶 guitariste de tout Les temps

[@angelachignoli8800]

Wow! There are no words, just listen ❤❤🎸🎶🎵❤️

[@ratsters7]

Utterly sublime. And I always love to hear Knopfler's guitar combined with Clark's piano, another fantastic example of that being Telegraph Road.

[@luisitodlopez5234]

no fan should miss it. Please, release it on CD/DVD.. we cant wait until the 40th anniversary ❤

[@lydiabentley3413]

Exceptional to listen to and we feel it too. Thank you mark and dire straits you have reached the world with your brilliant and outstanding music.

I'm 65 and his music still puts me in a dream state. 😀

Hopefully this means we are getting a release of this show

[@spomenkazlokolica3061]

Divine!!! Thanks for the tip! Greeting. ❤

[@HattemAlHajry]

Brilliant performance of a brilliant song

[@josephpriest8682]

I saw them in Deeside, UK in 1985 on the same tour. The best performance of anyone I have seen. The lighting was superb. I will never forget it. Mark is still a fantastic guitarist and his solo music now is excellent.

[@miguelvinas2887]

Hi, you are lucky to see them in 85, do you have photos of this concert?

[@mariopolito1318]

Extraordinary composition and superb performance!!

[@leonardoortiz2548]

Love to see a jam with Mark Knopfler, Al Di Meola, John Mc Laughlin & Paco de Lucia...

[@deanprince8602]

This is one of the greatest songs ever written.

[@lydiabentley3413]

Agree

[@florenzgarcia6544]

I miss Mark & DS

[@sailorman6828]

And around 2020, during an interview, he stated he needed guitar lessons... to which I say 'what?!' He could teach the best teachers a thing or twenty... and absolute guitar god, and a wizard lyricist. My but how today's so-called musical 'artists' sound like crap when compared with stuff like this... I had the privilege of seeing the live, just once, before Dire Straits dissolved... truly memorable

[@user-pr8gm6xe3l]

This Track is a Masterpiece from Dire Straits......Ah Touch of psychedelic......Amazing Sound....👍

[@lydiabentley3413]

I don't think there is a CD or DVD issue. But I have a copy on vinyl and it sounds wonderful. :D

[@anonimomonferrino]

(SORRY FOR MY BROKEN ENGLISH) As a middle school literature teacher (in Italy), I think that this song is something we should teach at school just like teaching the classic, traditional poetry we find in every anthology. Not all songs are poetry, but many songs by Mark Knofpler are: Telegraph Road, Tunnel Of Love, Privateering, Madame Geneva's and many others...Private Investigations is one of that songs/poems you can study on many levels: literary, metaphoric and didactic-moral. And we all can find something we experienced in our life: a loss, a broken love story, a concern, a mistake, loneliness... Not to mention Mark Knopfler's music and guitar: pure magic! 🤩 This is a universal masterwork.

[@CarinTibellAhlin]

As a fellow teacher I completely agree. This song is also metapoetic, a song about his process and experience of writing songs! Loved your comment. 🙏🎶 / Carin in Sweden

👍🎶 I so wish for the entire Wembley '85 concert to be restored and posted on Dire Straits channel, especially since it couldn't be included in the Live Box Set. It's such an iconic concert. Every song being a masterful performancel. Separate videos could never render the same experience and feeling as a concert in full, with Mark's presentations etc. Amazing MK & DS! ❤ & 🙏 Always
