Calling Elvis.
Editing just to say that Mark Knopfler has one of those guitar sounds that is instantly recognized, kind of like David Gilmour...you hear like 3 notes and know who it is.
Mark Knopfler is so talented. If you get a chance check out some of his soundtracks to films.

Sultans of Swing.
I still can't believe it's about a jazz band.

I was a pretty young kid when my dad explained to me how they overheard a conversation to come up with the lyrics. Always liked the song after that.

Telegraph Road is a long time favorite.
Fantastic piece of writing.

Love it musically, he makes the most of that resonator guitar in that song. I never thought it was his best work lyrically though.

Pretty sure the song is about the types of bands he used to play in, before Dire Straits was a thing.
He's a fantastic guitar player, but he had to struggle a bit. He didn't really fit into anyone's idea of a rock guitar player at the time.
He played with some pretty eclectic types of acts.
