Mark Knopfler recalled the experience of watching an “average” band play a low-key show in an empty London pub, and how their name, the Sultans of Swing, helped inspire the Dire Straits hit song about the moment. The Sultans of Swing were just a very average little Dixieland jazz band that were playing in a pub one night I was in, in Deptford, which is a very run-down part of south London,” Knopfler said. He also recalled the guitarist onstage that night really was named George, as in the song, and added that he's "read a number of completely fictitious and erroneous claims of people to be there. … I think they were actually surprised they had an audience of three or four. “I remember asking them to play ‘Creolo Love Call’ or ‘Muskrat Ramble.’ … I think they were amazed that somebody was in the pub who actually knew a few of the titles.” Read More: Mark Knopfler Remembers the Real Sultans of Swing | ultimateclassicrock.com/mark-knopfler-real-sultans-of-swing/?

They have so many great songs though, the radio stations could have played any of them and made hits out of them. Down by the Waterline is another that I really like. I'm sure you would really like their first album a lot. I played it over and over until the tape broke! Was so happy when they invented CD's and we didn't have to mess with cassette tapes anymore.

Not sure he so under rated, Dire Straits just didn't put out the huge library of music that some of the other legends did. But I think most guitarists put him in the top 15 at least. There are just sooo many great guitar players and it is soooo subjective. I truly love his sound and I'm with you, they didn't know how to make a bad song.

Hello, Empress. You were kind enough to indulge my Billy Idol requests for you to react to and I thank you. Although, you could still listen to DANCING WITH MYSELF, MONY MONY, and TO BE A LOVER and I would love you for forever. Mark Knofpler the singer and lead guitarist of Dire Straits is a former journalist and turned that particular skill into songwriting gold. The interplay of the band is well crafted, measured, and as detailed as his vocal delivery. Others will ask you to follow their most popular song, the MTV inspired MONEY FOR NOTHING and the video is good as it serves as a time capsule for computer graphics at that time. But there are songs to listen to. I love MONEY FOR NOTHING. But you should listen to the songs, INDUSTRIAL DISEASE as Mark documents the cover-up of the chemical leak at Monsanto. And SKATEAWAY just for the jazzy freewheeling music that comes with. Finally, I noticed that you liked the rhythm and musical bounce of SULTANS OF SEING. There is another artist named, Boz Scaggs who has a live performance of of his mid-7o's hit, LOWDOWN. I know you will enjoy it.
