Lyrics:
Stepping out to Angellucci’s for my coffee beans
Checking out the movies and the magazines
Waitress she watches me crossing from the Barocco Bar
I’m getting a pickup for my steel guitar
I saw you walking out Shaftesbury Avenue
Excuse me talking I wanna marry you
This is the seventh heaven street to me
Don’t be so proud
You’re just another angel in the crowd
And I’m walking in the wild west end
Walking with your wild best friend
And my conductress on the number nineteen
She was a honey
Pink toenails and hands all dirty with money
Greasy hair easy smile
Made me feel nineteen for a while
And I went down to Chinatown
In the backroom it’s a man’s world
All the money go down
Duck inside the doorway gotta duck to eat
Right now feels alright now
You and me we can’t beat
And a gogo dancing girl yes I saw her
The deejay he say here’s Mandy for ya
I feel alright to see her
But she’s paid to do that stuff
She’s dancing high I move on by
The close ups can get rough
When you’re walking in the wild west end

[@marieblue]

The title “Wild West End” (1978) refers to an area of London, England. Mark Knopfler moved to the capital after completing an English degree at Leeds University. Just like so many people, he enjoyed walking around the West End, always with an eye on the ladies. He spotted one distinctly attractive young woman in Shaftesbury Avenue, the very inspiration behind this song that clocks in at 4:42‼️ Another tune from the same LP, “In The Gallery” (1978), had its genesis in that same avenue, though in quite a different sort of encounter. 💚🎶💙

Once again thank you for the back story. The way Knopfler paints vignettes through his subtle lyrics is phenomenal.

My favorite cut off one of the best debut albums ever. There was not a weak song on that album, the influence that Bob Dylan had on the young Mark Knopfler is on full display here with Mark's lyrical story telling. Simply superb!

He made a match with the stile of JJ Cales guitar with a bit of Dylan's singing and nothing wrong on that

[@anne-mariemeiffren7090]

@@marcosgomes7681 et en y réfléchissant bien, il y a tant de délicatesse chez MK. On peut penser à la puissance de Dylan, qui tout changé, en un demi siècle. Et la guitare et les morceaux de JJ Cale sont autre chose. Mark Knopfler est un très grand musicien. Et le reste, il le fait bien. Ses petits univers.

[@andrzejkrezel5503]

I have just read "...I am almost 63..." and it is just the same for me, but it is immaterial as the feeling this song still brings to my heart makes me feel 19 or maybe 22 that I was when I got that LP for extortionate price in the then socialist Poland where anything coming from the "West" was almost beyond the reach. When I bought the LP and listened to it, it made me feel happy for a while, still makes me feel so good when I happen to listen to any of the songs of the first LP and still have the album, one of my favourite. 🙂

[@deadreckoning6288]

I remember when the Straits exploded on the music scene in 1977. They had a sound that I didn't even know I was waiting to hear and they hit such a sweet spot. The right band at the right time. Their music is timeless and it was a dream come true when I finally saw Knophler back in the mid 2000's. One of the best guitar players bar none. Bit of a shame Mark and his brother had such a falling out. Their original lineup was magic.

[@nunuloki]

That first Dire Straits album was so good. When it came out I was living with a group of real head banging heavy metallers, but even they loved this album and played it often.

No more gallivanting in the West End or any End, for the next almost 6 years as I brought up my beautiful daughter alone (with a little help from some dear dearest friends and family but essentially, alone, no partner at all, no ""uncles" dropping in and out). Oh but now. how I miss it. What a time I had, what a time. No regrets of any weight, just great memories.
