Notting Hillbillies - 13th May 1997

One of the many times we have had the pleasure of seeing Mark Knopler. I don't recollect the specific songs he played although many were from their album. I do recollect deep enjoyment at the music and surprise that MK had somehow lowered his profile after the hugeness of Dire Straits who ended up as possibly the biggest rock band around. There we were in an uncrowded Derby Assembly Rooms a couple of years after Dire Straits finally jacked it in listening to some glorious music from one of the best guitarists around ably assisted by a great band. Mark Knopfler - Guitar, vocals Steve Phillips - Guitar, vocals Brendan Croker - Guitar, vocals Guy Fletcher - Keyboards, vocals Marcus Cliffe - Bass Ed Bicknell - Drums
