Great interview, great stories. John is an extraordinary friend to Mark, of course, but a wonderful musician and a true custodian of the band that so many of love dearly that words cannot describe. Thank you, thank you.

Cracking stuff. Always particularly loved John's bass work on the Alchemy version of Once Upon a Time in the West :-)

The original Sultans single is on line, it is slightly different. Radio 2 sometimes play it.

John has always come across as a man you could have many long lunches with.....

My mom used to go weak at the knees when she saw John on the telly. I told her the bass player is always the best looking one...just look at your son.

Fantastic interview. Will read the book definitely. Funny enough On every street is one of my favorite DS album. To me it seems like an entrance to Mark's solo Golden Heart Era... talking about the tour, it may have been difficult psychologically, mentally and physically for all of them but musically it's just phenomenal. Just listen to to this opener (from Basel 92), really amazing sound and atmosphere, I remember watching it live on my tele as it was broadcasted live back then in Poland. What a gig that was kzbin.info/www/bejne/laDOnYKond16jNE

To not like Dire Straits is to not like music, period
@musicfreak77522 жыл бұрын
Why should Dire Straits get back together once in a while? To thank the fans for the sucess they had! It would be easy to play Wembley once every 5 years, just for the happyness of their fans. And why a proper concert movie (filmed in 35mm or high-definition) of Dire Straits was never made? 16mm-transfered-to-betamax-and-than-to-Blu-Ray Alchemy isn´t enought!

I'd settle for Mark, Guy Fletcher and their fantastic band do a "Songs of Dire Straits" tour with John guesting. That would sell out the arenas for sure.
