Papai Noel me deixou esses bootlges que seguem, para que eu postasse aqui para todos os visitantes do Universo Dire Straits. ^^

Esse bootleg é raro e bastante interessante. Já na reta final da BIA tour 1985, paticipação especial de Sting em Money for Nothing, no entanto, uma surpresa acontece quando Mark o convida em Solid Rock é muito legal, outras surpresas ocorrem no decorrer do concerto, as quais deixo que vocês mesmo tenham o prazer de descobrir quando ouvirem! ^^

Additional comments:
Pretty nice sound quality. No suprises in the setlist but the suprise is Sting a guest player on Money for nothing just like on the record! He also sings on Solid rock. But he is not introduced until Mark Knopfler thanks him before Going home. Another suprise is when Alan Clark improvises a bit during Going home. He plays a piece from cancan (Moulin Rouge). The song stops for a while and then Mark Knopfler begins playing a piece of it too! a funny moment, but only one minute in total. Complete show.

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.
