So, here's yet another million views for Sultans — the single song that Mark Knopfler wrote.

The last player to solo in the 40 finger's version has ripped off Miguel Montalban's version,
check Montalban's many takes on sultans on youtube

that one for instance

overall, there is a feeling that 40 fingers did take a good listen to Montalban.

He occasionally refers to Richard Bennet as Ricardo.
