so; was my description faithfull ? 
the video is avalaible now
it's exactly the main melody of Terminal of Tribute put in a different dress, soul/rock dress (as you wrote), pretty good overall.
can't hear anything of OES out of it tough.
guitar sound, global sounding/production...I find it sounding more OES era than solo years
well if you just need a Pensa Sound + rock base to sound DS, then yes... but can't find anything of OES atmosphere/melodies out of it
I hear the same atmosphere than on When it comes to you, millionaire blues or even start of PONO
of course it's not excatly the same sound/production, but I hear the same feeling
and BTW , OES is my less favorite DS album, so pensa sound is not what I would call sounding Dire straits. I'm more into early years or LOG/Alchemy, so of course I don't want to say that it sounds like the pic of dire straits,
BUT regarding last albums like Tracker, privateering, Get Lucky, KTGC, I think that this song is closer to what we have in mind when thinking to "dire straits", especially the last era, than recent songs like long cool girl, basil or silver eagle, etc...
