weird comment, considering the miserable times had by many...
still, nice to see the revival of DS interest.
any Knopfler, Floyd or Dylan will do....

As I've said before, I don't think John had a 'miserable time'. He was quite jolly most of the time. I didn't commune with him much but he was an easy going presence on the tour.
I'm sure he loved being next to Paul Franklin. Surprised I was the only other he picked out. Maybe appreciation with hindsight?

"Does it get any better than this?" -- Exactly my thought when I was at the Basel show in 1992.

"listening to him and play that pedal steel guitar was sheer heaven. Him and Mark trading off solos was just fabulous.

Sheer Heaven. John nailed it. That's exactly the right name for the wonderful collaboration between Paul and Mark.
It really doesn't get any better!
This is all the heaven we've got, right here where we are in our Shangri-La.
