Title: not a cover but an inspired by DS song LINK UPDATED!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Mudrian on February 22, 2019, 04:51:30 PM

Here is a song inspired by Dire straits that I have composed for my father's 80th birthday ...
 It's about his childhood in Spain in the 40's....the lost of his mother at age 14 ....
I did everything except the bass, and all technical aspects...

Yup, very early Straitsy, a good listen. Incidentally, your tag is to Dire Strait, missing a rather important plural.
