Für größere instrumentale Vielfalt sorgten schließlich noch der renommierte Saxophonist Mel Collins und Percussionist Joop de Korte. Recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon in London on 22–23 July 1983, the album features the band's best known songs from their first four albums, along with tracks from the " ExtendeDancEPlay" EP and the " Local Hero" soundtrack by Mark Knopfler. Pick Withers, who I love but realized after Love Over Gold, Mark wanted to take the band up a notch, Pick said, bro, he bowed out gracefully. Wer die tollen Nummern vom Debütalbum in Live-Versionen hören will, muss zum beeindruckenden "Live at the BBC" (1995) greifen. We are available to book for live shows and events, as well as bespoke licensed music for videos, commercials, TV, film and more.That said, this is an excellent live album and the performances are infinitely superior to the live (though not very a-live) tracks that came bundled at the end of a so-so 'greatest hits' type release a few years ago (I think it the 'Sultans of Swing' compilation). The scene switches to the inside of the venue as Dire Straits are announced and walk onstage for the concert.

Von den Gründungsmitgliedern standen nur noch Knopfler selbst und Bassist John Illsley auf der Bühne. There is an interesting contrast on this 94-minute double-disc live album (recorded at London’s Hammersmith Odeon in July 1983) between the music, much of which is slow and moody, with Mark Knopfler’s muttered vocals and large helpings of his fingerpicking on what sounds like an amplified Spanish guitar, and the audience response. It's one of those live albums that was edited down from a much longer concert, or even concerts, and feels a bit short.Related Artists - Brendan Croker, Brewers Droop, Chris White, David Knopfler, John Illsley, Mark Knopfler, The Notting Hillbillies. The arena-size crowd cheers wildly, and claps and sings along when given half a chance, as though each song were an up-tempo rocker. Unfortunately the records are in poor condition as I was very young and didn’t know how to handle them properly.

Alchemy: Dire Straits Live is a double album and the first live album by the British rock band Dire Straits, released in March 1984[4] by Vertigo Records internationally, and by Warner Bros.
