| J-Card Comment | Enlight note: A requested show, nice to give it a listen again. The sound is ,especially at the louder sung parts with Sting, medium..No doubt, Sting singing was great, must be recording settings. Still a great show to have. This is the second night from four in Paris, as far as i know the only one recorded (Or not?) Sting must found some time to join Dire straits after his Gig in Heidelberg the night before (27th) ,and hurry back to Germany for his Hamburg show the next day (29th). Nice to hear Sting perform with the Dire straits outside the UK , which is very rare during the BIA tour.And even more rare also during "Solid Rock" Mark and the band is in a good mood and really rocks. During the "Brake-down" part on "walk of life" Mark talks (screams) a lot to the audience in a funny way ,like his "tweedee-dee-yah", but more rare is that he starts "moaning" in a none Barry White kind of way. (Funny) I love it when " why worry" is played as a long version, this time with another breathtaking sax-solo by Chris. The Cancan improvisation by Alan and Mark is a nice bonus. covers,MD5 included. Take care and be nice fellows Enlight 2011-06 |
