Johnson and Knopfler's music legends

[Skyedriver]

Watched the first prog on Sky Arts - Tom Jones.

Bit of a rambling natter. Brian Johnson full of himself as usual, Mark Knopfler seemed a little hesitant to speak and Sir Tom was great.

Thanks for posting, I missed this but will be watching the rest of the series. I’ve been a Dire Straits/Knopfler fan forever (it seems)

Should be able to get it on catch up or one of Sky's countless repeats?
Nice insight into Sir Tom's beginnings.

Brian Johnson full of himself,what like the singer on one of the largest selling albums ever,tours to millions n a legitimate rock n roll star?
Saw him in the pub last Saturday,full of himself,no just another punter out for a drink n bit craic, television personna can be misleading?

Yes, I'm sure he's alright in company or on a one to one, in the interview with Sir Tom, he took the lead, Mark K, sat back and let it flow.
Others have said the same, Brian is OK, maybe it's set up for him to be lead interviewer.
Anyway OK programme will watch the series.

Watched my recording of the Cyndi Lauper interview and really enjoyed it.
TBH I don't know that much about her other than the couple of big hits and that i saw her at the John Lennon memorial concert in Liverpool back yonder.
Her history and comments were great and the bits of M&B wandering the streets of NY were entertaining and enlightening. TBH I never realised Mark had lived over there but there again I think everyone in the music biz has at some time.

The Nile Rogers interview was enlightening and entertaining.

Carlos Santana: this series is getting better and better.
Great discussion on how he got started and seeing Mark duetting with him.
