Music Back in my Soul again

Soil's photo.

Music back in my soul thanks to musician Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) who I have never heard of, however he is brilliant with talented band members most of whom have been with him over 20 and one over 30 years. They put on a awesome eclectic electric set mixture of Folk rock, jazz, blues that reminded me of a mixture of The Band, Moody Blues, Steely Dan, with Mark's voice sounding like soothing baritone voice similar to Gordon Lightfoot and Burl Ives. The Performance Hall was sold out without advertising, as he has so many fans that none is needed, They are mostly middle-aged or older like me. Much thanks to friend Mary who invited me.
 
 
Ron Alexander Dire Straits years ago - I do remember vaguely!
 
 
Ron Alexander Mark Knopfler with more recent photo - this brilliant musician has gotten better as he ages, as well as his band members, who all play at least two instruments, some play several more....
