There's So Many Different Worlds.

I Don't Really Think Of Dire Straits As A Sound, You Know. It. Just Depends On The Song, And The Stuff We're Doing Is So Varied.

I Bad A Piano Long Before I Bad A Guitar, And The Practice I Got Just Playing Those Three Chords In A Basic 12-bar Blues Song Was Very Important.

Each Song Has Its Own Secret That's Different From Another Song, And Each Has Its Own Life. Sometimes It Has To Be Teased Out, Whereas Other Times It Might Come Fast. There Are No Laws About Songwriting Or Producing. It Depends On What You're Doing, Not Just Who You're Doing.

My Playing Is Fairly Straightforward, Really, And Everything's Pretty Much Standard No Frills Or Special Effects.

Last Time I Was Sober, Man I Felt Bad, Worst Hangover That I Ever Had. It Took Six Hamburgers, Scotch All Night, Nicotine For Breakfast Just To Put Me Right.
