Dire Straits - On Every Demo - Repost

$
0
0


Studio, 1990-1992 

1. Calling Elvis (demo)
2. On every street (demo)
3. The bug (demo)
4. Heavy fuel (demo)
5. Iron hand (live, Timothy White sessions)
6. The long highway (live, Timothy White sessions)
7. Millionaire blues (B-side from Calling Elvis)
8. Kingdom come (B-side from Heavy fuel)
9. Calling Elvis (remix by Bob Clearmountain)
10. I think I love you too much (live, Knebworth)

Tracks 1-4: alternative demo versions
Tracks 5-6: Timothy White sessions
Tracks 7-8: B-sides
Track 9: alternative single mix
Track 10: live version

This is the collection of demos, remixes, B-sides, alternative versions of the songs that was made for On every street, except for the song The long highway and the live version of I think I love you too much from Knebworth 1990. The Calling Elvis demo version is now for the first time ever available for fans. It is not so very different from the original version, but has got another short drum/counting in intro and is shorter, mostly interesting for the die hard fans. The other demos are for the first time available in better sound quality and also in correct speed. The two Timothy White Sessions songs have got improved sound quality and a few seconds longer outro on The long highway. I think I love you too much was originally meant for On every street but was given to Jeff Healey. In other words; songs 6-8 and 10 in this collection could have been on On every street but was "thrown away". Good or bad? Listen and find out...

I rarely write to you all,  but I want to take  a few lines to show my appreciation for all these years of supporting and loving and enjoying the music of guitar god Mark Knopfler.

2015 has been a hard year for many of us, but fortunately I got a Job. Unfortunately it takes much of my time and has me not uploading as frequently as I would like.

As a way of saying thank you to you all for all your year of putting up with me, I'll be uploading some new stuff and some reposts before New Year's Eve.

I also will do something that give me no comfort at all, and that is to request for a little of your financial support in the way of a donation to the expenses of this site. It would mean a lot to me and the site.

There is no limit or pre-established amount for the donation, as little or as much as you can give will make a huge difference.

BBC Radio 2 studios Maida Vale, London, UK


February 5th, 2001


This is a very nice radio show that Mark Knopfler did for Chris Barber in his radio show the Jazz Diaries. They recorded four songs exclusively for this show, two instrumentals and two with vocals. Interesting to hear Mark Knopfler play with a jazz band and nice interview in this one hour show. Mark Knopfler joins at about half time in the show - the part about Mark Knopfler is from track 8 to track 18. Goin' home is not the Mark Knopfler song, and it is played only by the Chris Barber Band, also recorded exclusively for this radio show. Perfect sound quality.
