wouldnt work - dire straights would be trying to rock the place while dave gilmour and co. would only be trying to get everyone to commit suicide/do a lot of herion

No guitar player can make such melodic licks. Allother are just noises. Knopfler is injecting an entire different melody from the song. genius!

Yeah.You are so right about that. I'm glad to read a comment like the one you made. When a person is in the same class as Knopfler&Clapton there's no such thing as "who's better" It's just a matter of taste!

It is pathetic and inaccurate to compare one guitar player to another in the belief that one player is "better" than another. There is only "different" as music is a subjective thing.

lol i saw that!

not in my opinion, but this is all just opinion. it's not plain hard fact who's better than who. i like duane allman, knopfler, and trey anastasio better, and you like slash and hendrix and page better. no one's gonna convince anyone else.
but page and slash are sloppy, and knopfler's clean as can be, imho
jackbutton169 (January 6, 2009 at 7:17 pm)
page, slash and hedrix are better

actually i wouldnt even put him above of Blackmore, but thats another story...

oh and if u dont believe me, check out this Deep Purple video from 1969:

putting him above hendrix maybe ridiculous, but putting him above page is common sense
the only player who definitely surpasses knopfler is duane allman
vasman13 (January 4, 2009 at 5:51 am)
a hell of a replacement though
zonkov88 (January 4, 2009 at 5:07 am)
good guitarist definately

putting him above Hendrix or Page is still ridiculous
roadrashrobby53 (January 4, 2009 at 12:57 am)
i have to disagree in this case... only for the simple fact that all clapton is doing is playing rhythm
guitarbrutus (January 2, 2009 at 11:54 pm)
Clapton is stand-in for Jack Sonni who became a father that night... Even though it was planned when the gig was booked..
cutty25 (January 1, 2009 at 3:47 pm)

cutty25 (January 1, 2009 at 3:01 pm)

Knopfler + Calpton = GOD
Rickje91 (December 31, 2008 at 11:20 am)
Awesome, the crowd goes wild after the first note he played.
This music is sooo great.

Yes, kinda like when Salieri said Mozart played "too many notes". Clapton knows this is a battle he can't win besides he loves MK. They remain friends and play together ALL the time. Only EC could know how great Mark really is.
