That drummer is incredible
Can remember hearing this for the first time, just like it was yesterday... friend from school said he had a new 45 I'd probably like from a new band we'd not heard of before. Walked home via his house, played a bit of Scalextric and listened to Sultans of Swing about ten times. π
I really admire the way he plays guitar with his fingers.
The whole Alchemy Live album is so great. Definitely my favorite live album and probably my favorite album overall. Mainly because of this one song and Private Investigation.
Holy fuck, this song is 41 years old.
I was in London a couple of years ago. My wife and I were walking to Trafalgar Square in the twilight of a perfect June evening and there was a band in the Square playing βSultans of Swingβ. That was one damn fine moment.
Youβll pay for that Straizo
About a year back we had a new fridge delivered, I happened to sorta mention Money For Nothing and asked if that was their go-to song. None of the delivery guys knew what the hell I was talking about.
Broke my heart, man.
Also one of the greatest songs ever written
