heh heh , there's some history for you. I remember crystal clear the first time I heard Sultans of Swing on the radio. WTF? Who is this, Dylan or something? I knew it was something special. Called a buddy to ask "You heard of this song?" and he filled me in on the details. Never did see them live though. Knopfler did a show in Toronto sharing the stage with Emmylou Harris earlier this year.
