The stuff that now passes as "music", particularly rock 'n roll, leaves me cold. So, to start off the week, here's a video of a classic rock artist.
To start off this week, the group Dire Straits is spotlighted. When I think of the late 1970s and early 1980s musically, Dire Straits is usually one the bands that immediately come to mind.
From Wikipedia:
Dire Straits were a British rock band formed in London in 1977 by Mark Knopfler (lead vocals and lead guitar), David Knopfler (rhythm guitar and backing vocals), John Illsley (bass guitar and backing vocals) and Pick Withers (drums and percussion). They were active from 1977 to 1988 and again from 1990 to 1995.
Here is a video of their song, "Solid Rock" (one of my favorites) from their Making Movies album. This the live version:
As an added bonus, here's the studio version:
