the very best of DIRE STRAITS

[jenks]

Another Mark Knopfler/Dylan collab that wasn't released for years for some reason despite being one of Dylan's best ever imo

Both this and Jokerman are works of genius

Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet

[thirdform]

i used to work with someone who lived with mark knopfler when they were both at leeds uni. she said she had some stories about him but i wasn't interested.

 

[jenks]

Best fact is that he worked on the same paper as Basil Bunting in Newcastle - guessing late 60s/early 70s

 

[catalog]

Which would be same paper as Tom pickard and Barry macsweeney?

Have you all read that description of Barry macs poetry weekend thing he organised when he got pissed up and swore at everyone?

 

[luka]

yeah i think there was a divide between the academic oxbridge lot and the hairy bohemians and it all kicked off

 

[catalog]

Yeah prynne was there was he? I read it in some poetry pamphlet stapled together thing by sinclair. Barry macs later years sound pretty heavy

 

[luka]

thats right

A classic of the genre.

Come on, everyone. Stop fucking about, just put 50p in the jukey and select 'Money For Nothing' from a compilation CD with a car on the front. Obviously.

I really hate dire straights. Headbands. Fucking come on. Says a lot actually, that we can get to page 2. The real.

Someone else has written a pretty decent book about the 70s poetry revival scene and how they kept having scraps and could never get on with one another.

I've always found it odd that there was a big scene in Newcastle.
