I've already written to counter what was the only review of this video by someone who must be either stone deaf or brain-dead to have awarded it half a star. Why my contribution was disregarded is a matter which only Amazon dot whatever can figure out. This Concert is awesome. Dire Straits are performing at their most brilliant best. the sound quality, filming and editing is excellent. Why has it it has not been released on DVD?

This is the video of one of my all-time favourite albums. On video, you are reminded that Dire Straits are more than just Knopfler's sublime guitar playing. Hal Lindes is fantastic in a supporting a role - I especially like his trousers! - and we get to see the often forgotten John Illsley, who is superb on bass, taking "Private Investigations" to new heights. Best of all though is Terry Williams. It's worth buying this video just to watch him on drums - amazing. Like the vinyl, the video doesn't contain "Love Over Gold", but then I didn't even know it was missing until the CD came out. Hopefully they'll bring "Alchemy" out on DVD so we can enjoy it again in all it's glory. Don't think - buy it.

Purchased this concert along time back. One of the best live concerts I have ever seen. DS at their best, knopler at the height of his powers. A DVD version is on the way...............can't wait :)

Is this really Dire Straits
I found this concert abhorrent. The tracks are not superior to the studioversions - in particular 'Romeo and Juliet' is a stinker on thisvideo. Read more
