I bought the Box Set of their Live 1978-1992 just recently. I believe it is new release (not the music but the complication as a box set). It is great. I also enjoy box sets (both LP and CD) because you get some good stuff with it. Sounds amazing.  | |||

I have their first three albums, I love the sound of that period of Knopfler's career. I used to have Brother in Arms, but my roommate "borrowed" it and I never got another copy. I remember when they first came on the scene, kids in my high school were thinking they were punk rock/new wave, same with early Cheap Trick and Tom Petty at the time. Here is the Knopfler brothers in happier times; like Ray and Dave Davies of The Kinks, the Knopfler brothers had a falling out in the early years, don't know if they patched things up.

It may be too late. I think he’s retired from touring. When I saw him in 2019, he spent some time chatting with the audience, saying stuff that strongly hinted he was going to hang it up. In fact, I went home that night and bought tickets to see him again in Phoenix at the end of the tour because I suspected it might be my last chance to see him. _____________________________________________________________________ “One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.” – Thomas Sowell | |||

From the Sailing to Philadelphia album. His guitar playing isn’t as flashy in this one, but it’s such a great melody. “What It Is” _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||
