Stefan Gagnon says:

That was really educational. Too bad i dont really understand what he's talking about. Inspires me to want to play, though.

Carlos Bosso says:

4:335:00 What in the world is that song? He seems to highlight it a lot when explaining his musical journey.

Jaja Lizts says:

I don't know Mark personally but cannot understand some people thumbs down a hard working man, who got success through hard work, and at that, created some beautiful music for many people around the world to enjoy.

Jeff Cooper says:

Thanks, this is a great encouragement for all of us stumblers out there.

My kid is only 13 and she’s learning to play the guitar. She gets frustrated when she’s struggling to get something right. It’s nice for her to see that someone like Mark, with all his experience and knowledge struggled too, when he was learning. Great video.

Antonio Vivaldi says:

It's the music itself, not the techniques, that lives on and gives you lasting joy out of the instrument. The struggle is just learning the techniques to make the instrument sing the music.

Matthew Blas says:

What was the song that he was playing when he was talking about the folk finger picking style?

That's the way you do it ,  play your guitar on that U Tube see .

Thank you Mark for the tips

The Last 759 views ….it was me. Try to switch to the fingerpicking Style like Mark. I guess if Mark has two hands broken it still sounds better. Anyway. Try more

The unsung hero of rock n roll ladies and gentlemen Mr. Mark Knopfler

Mike Zidek says:

Is the tune he plays at 3:30 improvised or is that a song cause it’s catchy as hell
