Title: Re: Dire Straits Post by: Miz on August 04, 2004, 09:30:33 PM Dire Straits are amazing!! Mark Knopfler is a criminally underrated guitarist. His melodies are just wonderful.
Brothers in Arms and Making Movies are incredible albums. ANyone who hasn't got them, go out and buy them. : ok: Title: Re: Dire Straits Post by: Oddy on August 04, 2004, 10:51:26 PM i love dire straits.
i agree with miz, knopfler is an extremely talented guitarist. also extremely underated. i wonder how he fairs on those greatest guitarist lists. he's definetly in the top 20 in my book. played with his fingers too, awesome i say. just an alround great band. excuse my ignorance but what nationality are they? i thought they were australian but im not sure any more. Title: Re: Dire Straits Post by: Miz on August 05, 2004, 10:09:28 PM They're british. Knopfler is a Geordie which means he's from Newcastle (although I think he was born in Glasgow) for all you uneducated people.
The rest of the band (other than the Knopfler brothers) was assembled in London I think and I'm not sure where they all came from. Title: Re: Dire Straits Post by: Gunner80 on August 05, 2004, 10:54:38 PM I don't really care for their music at all.
