Mark Knopfler in 1996, who broke up DIRE STRAITS and tried to go solo. The iconic footage is now available in its complete version. The iconic footage was shot in London on April 15, 1996. It is a multi-camera professional shot recorded at BBC headquarters. Until then, most solo performances were soundtracks and one-off media appearances. The "GOLDEN HEART Tour" was also Knopfler's first solo tour. First, let's take a look at the overview of his activities at that time and check the position of this work. {"GOLDEN HEART" released on March 25th} ・April 1st: TV talk show appearance ・April 15th - May 26th: UK (28 performances) ←★Here★ ・May 28th - August 4th: Europe (58 performances) ・September 12th / November 2nd / November 13th: TV appearances This is Mark Knopfler in 1996. Although there were TV appearances accompanying the start of his solo career, the so-called concert tour was only in the UK/Europe from spring to summer. This work was the first day, which was also the signal smoke of the start of such a full-scale solo tour. Such a show was professionally filmed and officially released as "A NIGHT IN LONDON". It is a symbolic video that was also officially released on DVD in 2003. However, this DVD release was a big problem. The original VHS/laser disc was 18 songs, but for some reason the DVD had two songs, "Sultans Of Swing" and "Money For Nothing", cut out, which was an incomprehensible and unacceptable content. It was also released as an 18-song DVD in some countries, but this was also a trap. In fact, even though it was printed on the package, the contents were cut to 16 songs (it is said that the first Mexican version really had 18 songs, but the Mexican press was so rare that few collectors could obtain it, and the reissue was a 16-song version that was aligned with other countries). It caused great confusion among collectors, with some saying, "It should be included" and others saying, "No, it's not." In this way, the official DVD was extremely chaotic, but this work has a total of 18 songs. Using the master that was officially distributed in recent years, the problematic "Sultans Of Swing" and "Money For Nothing" are also recorded with the best master. The same complete version DVD as the original VHS was realized. Now, let's organize the complete full set. Solo (13 songs) Golden Heart: Darling Pretty (*) / Imelda (*) / Golden Heart (*) / Rudiger / Cannibals / Je Suis Desole (*) / Done With Bonaparte / A Night In Summer Long Ago / Are We In Trouble Now Others: Father & Son / Last Exit To Brooklyn (*) / Going Home: Theme Of The Local Hero / Gravy Train (*) DIRE STRAITS (5 songs) Brothers In Arms: Walk Of Life / Money For Nothing (★) / Brothers In Arms Others: Romeo & Juliet / Sultans Of Swing (★) *Note: The "★" mark indicates a song that was cut from the official standard DVD. The "*" mark indicates a song exclusive to this tour. ...And so it goes. Although I've only talked about "Sultans Of Swing" and "Money For Nothing," the main focus of the show is still "GOLDEN HEART." Nine songs are played on a grand scale, and "Gravy Train", the B-side of the single "Darling Pretty", is also played. A large number of masterpieces that cannot be expected on later tours are also performed, making this the first stage that leaves a strong impression of the long-awaited solo debut. This is a completely official, symbolic video work that can be fully enjoyed as a "live performance version of GOLDEN HEART". The complete version also includes "Sultans Of Swing" and "Money For Nothing", which were cut from the official DVD. Multi-camera pro shot from "April 15, 1996, London". This is the premiere of the first solo tour accompanying "GOLDEN HEART", and was also officially released as "A NIGHT IN LONDON". This complete version includes "Sultans Of Swing" and "Money For Nothing", which were cut from the official DVD, and you can enjoy the first stage of his solo career, where nine songs from "GOLDEN HEART" are played on a grand scale.
