Do any of you remember this classic from 1977? the Dire Straits' big opener, Sultans of Swing, was a real blast and got me into this music. Mark Knopfler is still active and just released a new album a few weeks ago, but is no longer touring. A style-defining, unique sound, voice and guitar always recognizable in the general noise of our time. Great music

Head up, this is definitely a low time-preference track.

This is amazing! I didn't know you love there! I also love Flamenco. We all Indians do. Here's one Bollywood song that's loved too much. I think it's got some good flamenco in it.

An all-time classic.
Mary Spender and Leo Moracchioli did a fun metal (well, metal-lite) cover a few years back that I also enjoy a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0RV0kgdqJU

That is the difference between past and present musical instruments. If previously musical instruments were not so complete and still classical, now musical instruments are complete and modern.
