John came to my very modest home town in Essex to play live two years ago. He play his own tracks, stopped for a talk about life in Dire Straits for half an hour, then played some of the bands best tracks. After he signed our albums, chatted with us and showed us his guitars. It was the best live performance I’ve been to. A lovely bloke, we’re lucky to have him.

I bought my first guitar and started playing it in 1978 after listening to Dire Straits' first LP, I was 14 years old... I always continued to follow them and after their dissolution I continued to follow Mark Knopfler... I I was always wondering what happened to the other members of the original group, namely Pick Whiters, David Knopfler and John Illsley... so for me this video is a pleasant surprise, also this song is beautiful, it could easily be included posthumously in the first historical Dire Straits album since the atmosphere is the same! the story of Dire Straits was the rock fairytale par excellence of my adolescence... four friends with no money who live in a flat in Deptford, one teaches, one works in a record shop (Illsley), another works as a social worker and only Whiters had been a more well-known musician having played with Mal's Primitives... I will soon be 60 and a few years ago I started playing the guitar and writing songs again... in the songs I write and in my guitar you can hear a strong early Dire Straits influence!

I've only just started listening to John Illsleys solo work and really like it, yes like some have said there's echoes of dire straits, particularly this song but there's lots of influences and he has a great cool voice too. Bass players never fully get the attention they deserve unless they lead singers too like geddy lee, Phil Lynott etc so it's nice to hear his voice and see him play backing guitar too on some stuff. It's a bit like Brian May doing solo stuff, people sometimes can't separate them from their famous bands to appreciate them doing solo stuff even when it's good.

It's a Long Way Back / Lyrics City of Angels was Burning bright Setting the scene for an LA night Standing on the edge of tranquility This was the moment to take in the view Shimmering with the red and blue Sun going down at the Sunset Marquee People you knew but never met Masters and maidens that slipped through the net Friends of friends of a certain kind Talk of the town a line in the news In the Gallery with a touch of the blues All you need is a six blade knife It's a long way back, It's a long way back to Deptford Town Sometimes it feels like these days will never end The push and pull of how we dance the messages we send Natures voice unheard amongst bluster and desire No one seems to notice that the flames are getting higher Which way is up no one can agree Keep asking myself where's the sense of harmony Smoke and heat of a hotel room Songs from the bard like rare perfume Fresh off the shelf now they're gone Nothing now will ever be the same Could this be heaven by another name Depends what side you're on If she asks you to go you can't decline Putting it down a line at a time Don't move too fast better taking it slow The world didn't start with the ticking of the clock Can't get by without a few knocks One by one blow by blow It's a long way back, It's a long way back to Deptford Town There's going to be a problem if we don't see eye to eye Only time will tell before another battle cry Take time to reflect take time to consider this For you and me and him and her this life of utter bliss Chorus Another actor another stage Who pays the pipers pay Let's hope he don't get lost Or tries to count the cost You face the world with quiet contempt Was this really what you meant When all is frozen and nothing pure Its make or break kill or cure I'm not sure anybody knows The way it is and how it goes Which way is up no one can agree Liberty fraternity Equality From New York city to Monterey New Orleans to Frisco Bay On every street in every town Out on the highway on with the show So much I just didn't know So I breathed it in took it down A gentle man with his gracious wife They had their dreams of a perfect life Worked the land until the sun went down They were lovers then in that market town The battle ground had left its legacy No words he spoke of this victory He built a world that was safe and sound Life was good in that Market town Take what you need not what you want There's no bars or restaurants No playing in the park no visits to the Zoo Relax my friend and let things be You have you're pride and honesty None of this was planned Or so they say But the sun will shine and the winds will blow This all will pass as well we know Once there was a river now it's a stream Looking back it feels like a dream Memories linger in your heart Life feel shot cos time flies Take a look through a child's eyes Now's the time to make a new start It's a long way back, It's a long way back to Deptford Town

Спасибо Джон, и ребятам спасибо. Мне очень понравилась композиция. Действительно, очень напомнила стиль Dire Straits 80-х. Гитара не Марка, но тоже очень хороша. Парень - молодец. Все - молодцы. Еще раз спасибо. Очень понравилось. Успехов!
