Mark Knopfler - Hill Farmer´s Blues - Córdoba 2010 - HQ Audio

[@wbravo66]

The more I listen to this, I think this a live musical masterpiece, any one agree

[@nathanwhitten8950]

I have since I 1st heard it live.

[@fritsvanswinderen4532]

Isnt everything😉

[@captmcneil]

@@nathanwhitten8950 Totally agree. I still remember when I first listened to it back in 2002 or so when RPD came out, and after the fade out the only thing on my mind was: "damn this will be good live". I was so sad when he didn't play it at first, but I'm glad he changed his mind. To anyone who hasn't: check out the Music Banks London extended version from the Privateering Deluxe edition, it's awesome.

[@hafidfassifihri7348]

Oh yeah wonderful

[@davisbakara]

[@charlesyateschalfant]

This song is a perfect example of just why Knopfler is such a genius, and may I say one of the greatest song writing guitarists of our time.

[@dianerobinson5336]

Why yes you may. He is a true "Wordsmith".

[@CarinTibellAhlin]

Yes of cource you may say so, because it's absolutely true. There is none like him and no one even homes close. 💙&🙏 Always

[@AgentRafa]

This is the perfect version of this song, Mark's outro blows the pants off anyone and that Les Paul needs a smoke and a beer to cool down. Pure perfection, a masterpiece!

Beautiful how he doesn't want you to hear his guitar as much as he wants you to feel the emotion of the song.

Брат,я не могу каждую песню переводить к сожалению (!!! Мне даже музыки хватает...Ты тоже не всего Чехова же читал...,а фильм может смотрел..С Кеану Ривзом,про ограбление банка

[@dianerobinson5336]

He's simply brilliant. I've come to think that the statement you made is not a conscious effort on his part. I believe it is an innate ability. The music flows from his soul and directly through his fingers. An unobstructed pathway. And in that, he allows us to be privy to that most personal part of himself.....the emotion. If he only performed in this fashion on occasion, I wouldn't say that. But he never fails to move me, as I know he does many others or give me the ability to get lost in his music. And one of the best parts of all of this is that he is so "Humble" with respects to the true talent he possesses. And for many years, it's in his music that I find my soft place to fall when I feel the need to do so. For me, his music is warm, welcoming arms. Now, should I tell you how I REALLY feel about this man.....lol!

I was there, in Cordoba (Spain). It was amazing and when I remember the concert I feel sadness. Eternal Mark

[@MissDistarr]

I simply love this man for his talent, intelligence, creativity and sheer musical genius. Over the decades, he has sacrificed a great deal of his life that could have been spent with his family and friends, so that he could share his music with us. He could have retired on top with "Dire Straits" but chose to continue sharing his music with his fans around the world. In doing so, he brought some of the most beautiful sound into our lives.This probably sounds corny to most people, but I truly believe music is a powerful thing that enhances and enrichens our lives, can touch our emotions, heals the soul and it has the amazing ability to be the caretaker of our most treasured memories. How does one thank someone for giving us such a gift?

[@wbravo66]

Miss great comment, I share your passion, wonderful words, there are some of us MK die hards from the early DS day to now, you are right he brings us to much joy at his expense, to you Richard Gamble, Simona, Luciana, Nasro, Carol Spencer, Patrice, Amanda Walker, I wish we could all meet up for an MK concert, it is in my bucket list, to all of you best wushes, lot"s of kisses and let's keep the MK faith

[@wbravo66]

Miss, I listen to his music every day, it brings me calm and peace to what I have in store as an IBM Senior Manager, the lyrics and that guitar playing give me strength, I have it on my USB stick in my BMW, I'm seen humming the melody, my colleagues think I'm nuts, but I'm not,

[@wbravo66]

Peter West PS I Think this song is a musical master piece, as is the live versions, of Privateering, I Dug A Diamond, Kingdom Of Gold, and Boom like that, and...........all the live DS stuff

[@wbravo66]

A crying shame mainstream music will not hear this masterpiece but a least our MK followers will do

[@greenwich1754]

A superlative summary of Mr. MK. Could not have said it better. I just don't get how he seems to be the Rodney Dangerfield (no respect) of music. His core fans are dedicated, but he just doesn't seem to have mass appeal he so richly deserves. MK is the music of my life, and will not miss an opportunity to see him if possible.

[@ALeitner06]

Hill Farmer's Blues is the song I pick when I need to get started on a big task. I love the change in the song when sings "Going into Tow Law | To fuel my fire". Over the years Mark Knopfler's songs have become more distinct and subtle.

[@marciacamposburincamposbur1090]

MK is the greatest ever. Enjoy his music everyday. He is so very very talented. Best guitarist for sure. Loved him with Dire Strait This is one of my favorite songs. Hill Farmers Blues.

Hard to say a guy that has sold as many records internationally is underrated but there is no musician in the world that plays a guitar sounding anything like this. I've been fortunate enough to see him live about 10 times and this group of world class musicians play soul touching songs over and over again. Knopfler is a genius you need to see live before he's too old to care about touring.

[@MissDistarr]

Mark Knopfler is the definition of true brilliance. From the composition of his music to the performance. He makes everything he plays, seem effortless, all the while showing his passion, emotion and love of the music. He can play a song hundreds of times and yet when one watches and listens to him, you would think it was the first time he ever played that song. Everyone up on that stage during this performance shows how it should be done. They have set the bar extremely high for those following in their footsteps.

[@wbravo66]

Great comment

[@MissDistarr]

Peter West Thank you for your kind reply. Mark Knopfer has an ability to give us the most profound messages and on the other hand he can reach evoke the deepest of our emotions. Like I always say, it's one thing to entertain your audience . It's quite another to move them. And he rarely fails to do just that for me. He is simply the best of the best in my humble opinion.

*_This man is just Magical !_*

[@fenwayify]

As a guitarist, vocalist, writer and band frontman, Knopfler takes a backseat to no one. Neil Young is up there in all areas, but he does not have the technical skill of Knopfler on guitar (that's not to say Neil is not as "expressive" or even more prolific). Both continue to be creating new and GREAT music into their 70's....wondrous. Still, as an ensemble, I will take Mark and his bandmates any day....right up there with Bruce and the E-Street band, the Stones, The Who, any of them, in their primes....

[@jennywren7822]

I'm 75 now, and can honestly say after your comment, Mr Knopfler and his Dire Straits right up until now on his own with new band mates, are the best that will ever be. The mans a GENIOUS I've realised that, I was there with all the other great groups and bands in the 70's and 80's but no one can match Mr Knopfler and his creativity. Long may he reign.....
