A Night In London

A Night In London, Mark Knopfler 1996.

Amazing version of Romeo and Juliet.

I was in a record shop (for the historical record these were shops where you bought music) to buy the latest Rolling Stones album (it was rubbish).

I do not know why, but I picked up an album by Dire Straits who at the time were unknown. I went round telling people of this amazing group. It was at least a year before they became known.

Some years later I saw Dire Straits in Southampton.

Mark Knopfler is touring this autumn with Bob Dylan.

Bob Dylan a couple of days ago released Tempest.
