About Playlist

When Dire Straits emerged at the end of the '70s, the blues rock style that they imposed on the musical landscape was in total contradiction with the trends of the time. In the midst of punk, new wave and metal, Mark Knopfler's band turned up with a clear sound and a style of music that found its roots in rock and roll. Tinged with the blues/rock sounds of J.J. Cale, but also containing jazz and country influences, their songs brought them international success, mainly in the 80s and 90s. Enjoy our hand-picked selection of tracks that represent the best of Dire Straits and Mark Knopfler.
