                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Be sure to check out David Hodge's latest intermediate-level lesson on the GN home page: <a href="https://www.guitarnoise.com/article.php?id=634">Dire Straits "Walk of Life."</a>  Nice and simple, no solo, but he incorporates the keyboard melody into the guitar arrangement.  You can probably jump straight to the tab and start playing, but the lesson is short and definitely worth a look.

I should actually look at the home page more often - the desk-top shortcut I have takes me straight to the index. If it hadn't been for the newsletter I probably wouldn't have noticed that lesson till now - I'll be sure to check it out. Always been a big fan of Knopfler's.<br><br> :D  :D  :D <br><br>Vic]]></content:encoded>

Bullseye.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Yasmhicamat, once you go away from popular songs, you will find some quite amaizing unknown gems from Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler. Brothers In Arms, the song, is one of my favorites. Your Latest Trick is also on that CD. I've got the TAB around here somewhere that turns that sax intro (and other parts) into guitar.<br><br>Oh, and any chance in giving up the location of the backing track? (assuming you found it online?)  :D]]></content:encoded>
