why, at the beginning of Private investigations does Mark say:
"...this one was a big favorite with Dave Lee Travis"
i understand the guy was a DJ.
but mark sounds a bit tongue in cheek like, anyone know why?
any Knopfler, Floyd or Dylan will do....

Maybe he wouldn't play the single due to it's length?  I am only assuming. If I recall I read somewhere it hardly received any airplay in the UK.
