Dire Straits - True Wembley '85 (Perfect Audio)

This is the ultimate audio recording of the best part from the famous Wembley Arena concert recorded on July 10th. 1985. REMASTERED! Every song here is truly from this show while many other boots (e.g. Straiting out Things) incorrectly feature some songs from Hammersmith '83. This one is special for highlighting Why Worry, Tunnel of Love, Solid Rock (feat. Nils Lofgren) and Going Home (feat. Hank Marvin) at such soundquality. Enjoy this historic Dire Straits show with one of the best versions of Brothers in Arms ever performed!

I saw this tour at the amphitheatre in Costa Mesa and they just blew me way. I was always a fan of Mark and virtuoso guitar playing but he was on fire that night. Dire Straits was the best band of the 80s bar none.

[@anonimomonferrino]

Best of the 80s and not only! Music, playing, lyrics... a magic, unique potion! ❤

[@realplonk]

mark created his own sound, you'll never hear anything like it again

[@CB-xr1eg]

Mark's brother David tries his hardest to sound like this.

I saw Dire traits in Vancouver 1992. Undoubtedly the best show I've seen. EVER !!

[@anonimomonferrino]

If the original Private Investigations gives me gooseflesh, this version is unreachable!

[@sarkisfridon4958]

Mark is a legend... speechless

[@HempsteadGaz]

I was there. 3 days before Live Aid. After 55 years of concert going, it remains the absolute best I've ever been to.

[@davidr9044]

I was there too @ 20 years old, and saw Springsteen at the Stadium around the same time. I rank the Dire Straits show in the top 3 I have ever seen (and I have seen many),

[@fabbiogomes5745]

Spectacular, I love this band, this show is perfect, 👏👏👏

[@CorradoCasula]

La mia impressione è che ogni concerto dei Dire Straits sia memorabile. E' difficile poter dire questo e' buono e l'altro un po' meno. Quello che si nota in evidenza è prima di tutto la loro grandissima professionalità, ma anche la loro passione e il loro amore per il rock romantico. In un dvd affermano che ogni "singolo concerto ti arricchisce sempre più". Anche tra gli album ( solo sei, purtroppo) è compito arduo scegliere il migliore. Forse il primo è il più originale, mentre nell'ultimo si scorge un tentativo, in alcuni brani, di cambiare genere. La cosa sicura è che questo gruppo "si rimbocca doverosamente le maniche ogni volta". E fanno scintille in tutto il mondo.

[@ChrisBoland]

Wow, is it just my ears or is this Sultans better than Alchemy???

[@PieterCD]

For me this whole concert is better. Butt everybody has his own taste. Sultans, brothers in arms, so far away, money for nothing. Every track in this concert is masterclass.👍👍

[@petermetaxas9696]

Speechless !!! You can hear Terry Williams, his wonderfull drumming style. Speechless !!!

[@devilsoffspring5519]

Terry kicked ass, I first had my little mind blown by his fine work on Sultans Of Swing from the Alchemy Live album, which I got when I was 6 years old right when it was released. I was a little pint-sized rock 'n roller and a big Dire Straits fan :)

Best concert ever heart

[@jonathonrowley3535]

God knows why Knopfler didn’t record a solo for So Far Away on the album it fits so perfectly here. I recorded this concert on VHS when it aired on C4 in the uk and wore it out re winding it 1000 times trying to learn all the guitar parts……..still trying at 50 years old.

[@shard841]

My dad got a friend to record this. It jumped in the middle of Sultans. Used to play this alongside Alchemy every Sunday morning fantastic, cannot wait for the release. Wish they released this with the missing songs.

[@malcolmspence2869]

Exactly the same for me. VHS. I went on to practise night after night for ages the final solo on Tunnel of Love. Was blown away by that concert. A shame he couldn't have squeezed Telegraph Road into the show. The trifecta .

[@Massimoschiroli]

Semplicemente stupefacente..

[@kambramareburger-erskine1574]

Like I said this is a lot more fun than going to the gym!

[@devilsoffspring5519]

I don't think going to the gym was invented to be fun, it was invented so you can get huge and beat the fucking shit out of people so you can get laid. Dire Straits had better things to do with their lives. Nothing wrong with getting in shape and pumping up your giant muscles. But to the world around you, it is trivial drivel and serves ZERO purpose other than assaulting other human beings. Nobody ever created anything great, moving, and meaningful simply because they were huge and could assault people.

[@Francoise-gm8re]

Dire Straits remember me the BEST OF MY LIFE ❤❤

[@bevleroux9992]

Mark? his dancing/moving! listening to him sing/ whew!

[@devilsoffspring5519]

52:08 Pure magic! I've heard Face to Face do it, I've even heard Blink-182 do it! But nobody captured the magic of great rock 'n roll quite like Dire Straits. Let's just call them special and unique and leave it at that for now :) The cool part is that it's STILL rock 'n roll. It ALL revolves around John's simple bass line.

[@wallsy2010]

This really has to be classed as one of the most iconic live performances of all time, next to something like Live After Death or Live Shit Binge and Purge. This is great sound quality too, thanks for sharing.

[@CB-xr1eg]

Alchemy Live is even better than this, but the number 1 Live album has to be Made In Japan - Deep Purple. They played 3 concerts in Japan and recorded them all, then they took the best performances from each concert and compiled a double Live album. There is also a triple Live album called Live In Japan which has all 3 concerts on it.

[@stephaniemanchester-chermo3840]

Iron Maiden “Live After Death” has to be one of the best live double LP’s ever. I’ve seen Maiden a half dozen times and have always walked away more than satisfied. A few other great live LP’s, Thin Lizzy “Live and Dangerous” and Slayer “Decade of Aggression”. Black Sabbath “Live Evil” remastered.

[@wallsy2010]

@@stephaniemanchester-chermo3840 Wo that's a lot of times! I saw them during the X Factor tour, which was the greatest gig I ever attended. And then saw then a few years back which didn't really come close. I don't really listen to them much these days because I over-listened to the old stuff and can't really get on with the newer stuff, but man I love that band so much!
