Fantastic first album. The second album was also terrific.
I started to lose interest when Knopfler bought a distortion pedal.
His style doesn't lend itself to high gain. The distinctiveness of his playing got lost.
My wife & I saw them on the Communique tour. Out of shear luck, we got 6th row center seats at The Iptown Theater in Chicago.
Oh, and welcome to DU.
