Mark is such a nice and humble person. He's been my hero since I've heard Sultans of swing for the first time. Real geniius. And the studio is fantastic...

[@TheXeroid]

I love these little peeks into Mark's world. I would give my right arm to work at British Grove Studio's.

[@AgentRafa]

Yes, and then Mark could tweek the lyrics of "Why Aye Man" to suit you: "One Armed Man" lol.

[@TheLionandtheWolfUK]

I was lucky enough to do 2/3 weeks work interning there back in 2005. Absolutely glorious space. I also think I rewired a plug wrong and accidentally electrocuted one of the engineers. Still feel bad! haha

[@RollieFingers59]

That was me! Thanks a lot

[@MikkelBach-G]

Mark was the reason i picked up the guitar 9 years ago. Recently bought a Fender strat Custom shop(;1956 Fiesta red), don't regret it. your music is something very uniqe. We love you Mark :-)

[@paulcorreia6742]

GOD BLESS YOU MARK,FOR BLESSING US!!! IM GLAD WE WALK THE PLANET THE SAME TIME 2 GET BLESSED BY U TKS. MAN!!!

[@bonesbginnis]

He will always be a hero of mine, from his guitar playing, to his singing, to his songwriting, and for his constant quest to present his music with the best tone possible. Bravo Mark Knopfler.

[@steviesindahouse4903]

What a gentleman you are Mark; how you treat everybody, and all of your treasures (all that wonderful gear, and all of those beautiful instruments), with dignity and respect. What a treasure trove (you have) at Grove (couldn't help it!) And best of all, we can book it! 😊

[@steviesindahouse4903]

Looking forward so very much to hearing you play live again Mark! The last time I saw you you brought me to tears (with Coming Home), and you (and Guy) have just done it again playing the very same song with your tribute to Sir Stirling Moss at Goodwood .. I can't imagine a greater honour .. thank you, infinitely .. Rest In Peace Sir Stirling ...

[@acamo8444]

I love Mark knopfler so much 💜🌷🌷🌷💜 will never be another like him 🌏💥🌏 Mark is the greatest guitarist ever 💕🎸🎸🎸💕i love your voice and love it Sultans of Swing is my favorite song 💖⚘⚘⚘⚘💖

[@MalcolmPowder]

I want to be friends with Mark. I do a limited amount of recording in my own back bedroom and boy is there a lot to learn.

[@mhsigrist]

OMG, all those tape machines running are piece of history that still makes new music. Awesome!

[@charleneguiliano2943]

Wow that was amazingly special!l wonder if he was born holding a guitar 🎸

[@lowandodor1150]

Trust me, sir, it means as much, or nearly as much to me. What a dream recording palace! In my daydreams, i have this nice house with a recording studio attached to it on this gorgeous piece of land overlooking a river down below....but then i come to and sit in this lousy flat in the ugly part of Vienna, haha!

[@kaleomk]

what an amazing Studio, it feeds the creativity and with Mark, this is endless.

[@lovebirdsmusic]

kudos to a real idealist. i would do the same thing if i had the means)

[@larswillsen]

A sales dude approached me in late 70s / early 80s and told me "This, my friend - is the band of the 80s" ..mkay? .. great times - my mom bought the cassette and I still have it :)

[@brigittebrigitte1842]

MK you are my hero you are really amazing what you doing you're singing or even your talking I like it all thank you MK you are the greatest keep care of yourself🎸💜🎸💋🎸❤💗💗🎸

[@davidpfaff9879]

Mark Knopfler - an underappreciated genius and with an very understated and humble artist !!

[@tsl9940]

Little glimpses of the recording world really makes the music come alive for me. I can just see Eric Clapton and the Rolling Stones in there, making their last two albums (which are great!) For me, it makes listening to MK's music so much more intimate, so keep these jewels coming!!

[@marinaabade9646]

Mark knopfler um gênio 🧞‍♂️🎶🇧🇷

[@kirkster7716]

This is so funny to me. Read an interview in an EQ or Mix Magazine years ago with these 2 guys. I never heard any of their music but they dropped some recording gems in that interview. Now I have to go back and read that interview with an English accent...thought he was an American. The wonders of KZbin...good stuff.

[@CliffMcAulay]

These two men are the weavers of all our dreams. So nice to hear them discussing their workshop and tools. Thank you for uploading.

[@ChristineLinge]

It's so fabulous to see this. Very interesting indeed to hear the comments! Greetings from Dubai

[@buddycasino2415]

Cause Mark is such a nice and gentle guy everybody would wish that he and David could resetup their relation-chip and that Mark could help his brother's career. Both should be based on a real brotherhood without emotions of false proud or envy. Everybody knows that David's financial situation is stressed even to pay a studio and Mark could do something special here. You only have one life and one brother 🤷

[@smalltown2223]

Wasnt Mark Knopfler the guitarist in REO Speedwagon?

[@markmorrell3494]

The Starsky and Hutch amp head. Anyone know who the manufacture is? 3:38 in.

[@joanstylsvigpetersen9998]

You are one in a million Mark. I love you❤️

[@william6084]

Mark looks and sounds like a real human being but you get the feeling it's all pulleys and cables - the magician resides elsewhere, where the hidden heart of icebergs dance about a blue flame, where Pharaoh's and mystics chew the fat and toss crumbs into the world of men

[@pttrent123]

What a treat this video is, thank you

[@stephenchow5161]

komet k60 in the corner!

[@guentifree]

Wow Very interesting tour through the studio..

[@rav_63]

it was only me who expected that Mark would play Daft Punk? 😂

[@stephaniewhite5644]

I love this tour of his studio in a way I feel like I am there (I wish)...🙏😏💕

[@SoniaMaria-dy5ug]

Breathing music 30hrs/day... how nice delightful..🤩😍

[@paulmarjoram2258]

Like heaven to me. Can I come and make coffee and tea for free.

[@Northyorkspaul]

Yes its great that we get these insights,very interesting and not many other artists would do this,what a fantastic place... thanks Mark!

[@БобГубкаПупкин]

Марк лучший!

[@78alireza]

Wonderful....

[@mjleb1]

Thanks a lot. I know now a little bit more about recording studios.

[@Paul8342]

Mark’s passion is clear to see here - love the guy!

[@fatimaluz777]

Aí está...um maravilhosos mundo mágico, onde coisas boas acontecem!! Parabéns, Mark! 💯👏🏻🎸💋

[@simon_patterson]

Funny to think that this is the guy who made the first DDD CD, and now he uses all analogue gear!

[@charlieindotnet]

My favourite GOD

[@williamrobinson7435]

Thanks for this fascinating tour! Being able to adapt the acoustic of your main space is great. You certainly appear to have achieved maximum flexibility here, and it's clear that a ton of dedication has gone into the studio.. I shudder to think how much all of this cost. My sincere congratulations to you all on the award! 🎶⭐👍

[@nikolaj550]

11:13 hello mark is that not the guitar that you used in money for noting and walk of life?

[@vansmith1029]

Good to see Danny Cummings in this wonderful studio! Along with bassist Glenn Warf!

[@SamoMoment]

Started playing guitar because of Mark almost 15 years ago, seems like yesterday... I would drive on that red Vespa to UK to get a glimpse of this marvel!

[@opalsuse]

great! :-)

[@thecannetwork7559]

I’m surprised to see adverts on Marks official channel 😣

[@donnaengel6413]

❤❤❤

[@dawin6710]

Mark how about showing us your guitar rig once. I would love to see and cop.. I mean get inspired.

[@northof50now]

Awesome tour. Seems to be a real passion for Mark now. Far cry from the small studio shown in "Guitar Stories."

[@firststatetate]

Wow. Just wow.

[@MAli-yc3bs]

This bass means a lot to me too 🤩🤩🤩😅

[@marciodamusica3318]

Great friend hits.

[@jerryfields4837]

wouldnt it be absoultly amazing....to see Mr Knopfler playing a bass sometime??

[@morbidmanmusic]

Not really... why?

[@MichaelLu8]

Guys and their toys, as simple as that

[@morbidmanmusic]

Not toys, unless you don't know what they are...

[@paullynch928]

Instruments for the true professionals

[@sandydsylva]

From where does one get 1inch Magnetic Tape today ?

[@bluebeatsfan]

Simple - You just call someone and say, "Hi - This is Mark Knopfler. I need some quality 1-inch tape." The answer will be, "I'll get it right over." :-)

[@spomenkazlokolica3061]

👏👏👏

[@darjeeling6432]

Is that a Celica? I think so, I got one. Great car!

[@A338-b5k]

Yeah, it belongs to the woman that cleans the toilets.

[@dr666demento]

Where is Clapton? Retired. Where is Knopfler? Still going on. And still being good.

[@A338-b5k]

Perhaps remember Clapton was starting out 14 years earlier. He's now got a nerve condition that makes it harder to play hence he's only got 3 shows lined up this year. Don't compare apples and oranges.

[@jupitorious7925]

Pathetic comment...

[@vansmith1029]

Yea I would say you have gotten a sound or two from there!
