Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with DIRE STRAITS!

Ah, one of Johnny's all time favorite Dire Straits tunes. Even though the video was shot in 1980 and some of the imagery is dated (the early Walkman with padded earphones and roller skates instead of roller blades) it's beautifully shot. Very artistic in it's own way. Mark Knopfler is also so great at telling a story in a way that really grabs you and holds your attention. A wonderful songwriter he is.

Toro Toro Taxi, see you tomorrow my son
