Rating: - Mark Knopfler Live in London
This is a very laid-back, gentle and intimate performace by Knopfler and fellow musicians. In this performance you can tell that he has been heavily influenced by J.J.Cale. Just watch "To Tulsa and back on tour with J.J.Cale" DVD. If you like Knopfler you'll like J.J.Cale.

This DVD is a lot different from the Dire Straits "on the night" DVD, because it is more gentle, more intimate ... Read More
Rating:  - Awesome Musician
Mark Knopfler is our favorite musician, bar none! This is a wonderful concert, but with an exception. For some reason the DVD (unlike the video)does not include Sultans of Swing which is one of the best of all. Otherwise it is a fantastic must-see! He just gets better and better!

Rating: - Superb
I may be biased in that I have been a fan of MK for some years.
This DVD of him and others in London I thought was just great.
Some of his best tunes with some terrific support. The setting was spot on, up close and personal with a cracking rapport between the various musicians. The whole thing was superbly crafted and I loved it from start to finish.
