  Mark Knopfler. Imo one of the most technical guitarists in history.

  Terry Williams, the drummer, was on fire. He was known for hitting the drums very hard. He is now retired in Wales, at the age of 75. The lead singer is Mark Knopfler, one of the best guitarists in the world.

  This gig was probably one of THE BEST GIGS EVER, every single band member was on fire all at the same time, to do this Telegraph Road and Tunnel of Love on one night is just unheard of ...... top top musicians at the very peak of their game....and moreover playing with smiles as they actually knew just how good it was

  I do believe it is one of if not the best drum performances of the era.

  This is one of the best live performances ever! It&apos;s full of energy and keeps me goosebumped for the whole 10 minutes. What a performance, even after seeing this hundreds of times so far...

  This was the drummers dad&apos;s first time seeing him play.when you see Mark smiling with the guitarist and looking back at Terry the drummer, they extended solo a little, soTerrycould really show his dad what he could really do, love that. Best band ever

  Mark Knopfler may be the finest guitar technician of our time... When you consider Touch, feel, speed, finger plucking, song writing and playing live, Mark has it all. His Dire Straits stuff is iconic but his volumes of solo records are what I listen to all the time... Smooth, with incredible storytelling in both the lyrics and the guitar playing... they become almost undistinguishable when you get locked in!

  Keep your eye on Mark Knopfler throughout the entire video. He is directing the entire time with a look, a nod, eye contact.......there is never a second that he is not in control of that stage. It is how he performs at every concert and how he leads his band. &nbsp;And that is what makes him &apos;next level.&apos; Along with being arguably the greatest guitar musician of all time.
