This drummer probably came from another planet. Excellent playing.

Josh and Martin's dual lead at the end was brilliant.

7:25 drummer making his own delay with hi hat. He's a 10/10 in every song/medley and extremly taste

Josh smith is criminally underrated and unknown, unreal guitarist!

Josh Smith's playing is just so underrated. I mean the guy is world class good. Such a dynamic guitarist

The original is an iconic milestone. But this version got its own unique dynamic. Absolutely stunning... Great jamming!

This is the Big Boys playground , absolute pinnacle of musicianship ,all blending seamlessly into a masterpiece of precision , passion , and damn good fun!

Man that epic Guitar solo battle. The Drummer is a god, so much groove Energy. Love it

Josh and Martin compliment each other brilliantly. That being said, Josh is absolutely owning this. I hope that guitar is over 18, Respect to everyone on that stage.

The best Sultans of swing cover i’ve ever heard on youtube. Extraordinary. Keep playing.

I've been listening to Dire Straits & Mark Knopfler for over 25 years now, and Sultans of Swing is probably the song I will never get tired of listening even after a million times. This cover is amazing, and I heard a lot of them, but I've never heard anything like this. The foundation and structure of Sultans of Swing are there, but they managed to completely re-invent it, adding their style and feeling, without denaturing it. The solos are incredibly creative but above all, perfectly executed. Josh & Martin have merged their style into something unique. Hats on to the bass, keyboards and drums players, they all nailed it as well, amazing. Thank you guys, you really made someone happy today. Now, I will be listening this in loop for a day or two :)

I liked the smile on the bass players face when Josh was playing his solo. Two incredible guitar players. I couldn't hear a bum note. A roomful of awesomeness. Giants of the music world (all of them).

Josh’s solo is unbelievable, I mean Jesus h Christ on a bike the man is unreal...💪💪💪😍 Nicely done. Enjoyed your version of a great song.

8:27 the keyboardists face sums up this experience for me. So good!

Every musician in that room is amazing.

I love Josh's smile at 8:25. You can tell he was having a blast, and he sounded so darn good, as did Martin!

Fantastic! Two world-class guitarists playing a classic song with a superb bassist, drummer, and keyboard player respectively.

Literal goosebumps as soon as i saw this title pop up in my notifications

That's got to be the best version of that song I have ever seen and heard , absolutely stunning , especially Josh and Martin the way they both nailed those solos.

Dudes, I gotta say, I'm so glad one of your videos popped up in my suggestions, I have not once been disappointed by any of them. Every one has been recorded well and always gets me cranking the volume. Excellent and very talented bunch, thanks so much for feeling the songs and conveying " your" own personal touches yet staying within the framework of the song. Best to you all, be well and prosperous. I mean that.

A collection of these performances would be a fantastic album download, I love the sound of the room so much.

Josh Smith absolutely killed it on this! Amazing in every aspect.

I can watch this video a hundred times and I find another reason to love how each and everyone there uses their craft and gifts! Excellent job!

This has to be one of the all-time best covers in music history. Im dead serious. You guys actually improved on such an already amazing song! Im blown away.

This is just insane! I've been listening to Dire Straits for such a long time and can sing every note of the solo's in this song. I always loved the Alchemy version because it just took the song even further. But this version is just out of this world. Thank you Martin and Josh on killing it on the guitars. And also the drummer just makes this song even better than i'm used to! Great musicians and great feel and love for the craft that is music!!

By 3mins in I was grinning ear to ear - WOW! Once Josh gets to play he knocks it outa the park and brings out even more from Martin... Magic, nice one guys. Best cover I've heard of that song by far!

Leaves me speechless. This band takes the original tracks to next level (with full respect to the original artists' genius of course).

This is still one of the best guitar duos this channel has produced. Josh is such a killer. Such different styles just wailing. Love it and I am so happy Josh got his sig model but man I miss this original black tele

Josh’s solo.....frickin epic.....rewind.

This build ups really nicely! At first, I was a bit like meh... but then holy moly. Josh Smith's tone 👌

Everyone in this band is such class player. Perfect example of when four top notch musicians meet, the music exceeds the sum of all its parts.

Almost for 3 years I have been listening to this cover...never gets old...filled with crazy solos...just amazing 🤯 i love dire straits but I listen to this version a lot❤❤ legendary players🙌

I've probably watched this 75 times over the last year. I enjoy it more and more every time. Just fantastic! Thank you!

My goodness ❣️. Complexity in perfect harmony. What a performance. You guys enjoyed playing we enjoyed listening. Thank you.

Absolutely astounding. I love the amazing improvisation plus ability for you all to feel each other and defer to each other. The tone of the solos is other worldly! Thanks so much. Loving it from down under.

That's what happens when everyone in the band is a killer musician.

This is the second time I must comment on this video: This is such an incredible performance. The guitars are superb. I literally can't stop watching it. I'm certain you made Knofler very proud. Incredible performance, incredible sound. Rock on y'all!

Não me canso de assistir e ouvir esses caras. Mandam bem de mais, todos!

Martin, I love to watch you play and jam with other guests, but when I saw that you had Josh Smith in the house, I knew this was one to watch over and over! Both of you are masters of your crafts and together, well, that was more than a huge fan could ask for. Thank you!

Simply ‘off the scale’....some great guitar playing and a rock solid band! Well done guys! 👍👍👍

When genius and empathy come together, musicians like you emerge ... wow, what good musicians you are !!!!

Josh’s solo had soul in it really felt it. Best cover on here hands down

stumbled upon this video . the best sultan of swing i've heard so far. the drummer is awesome and both the guitar players are incredible with their solo. love it

Amazing performance! I can listen and watch it all day long. Both guitars are incredible, the entire cover is fantastic, the sound is just perfect. Wonderful wonderful rendition.

I don't get the dislikes.. This is fabulous. I like Joshes singing, his brilliant soulful playing and the way he uses the rotary effect in this song. And Martin adds his superb jazz-fusion style, which makes it more interestering than just copying the original. And let's be honest: the drummer, bassplayer and keyboardplayer are fantastic too. Keep those covers coming guys!

THIS IS JUST EPIC PLAYING SKILLS! THAT SOLO OF THE SINGER IS INCREDIBLE!!! AND THE COLLABORATION OF HIM AND MARTIN IN THE END JUST FINISHED THE SOND WITH A GRAND FINALE... AWESOME JOB YOU ALL

Wow! This is the best rendition of this song. Mark Knofler is amazing and you guys are absolutely amazing!!

I really appreciate that they respect the heritage of Mark and they kept the most recognisable licks in their solos.

NO ONE IS COMMENTING ON THAT PERFECT SNARE DRUM SOUND OH MY GARSHHH!!!!

As many times as I come back to hear this over and over, I wish I could keep on hitting that thumbs up every time...

The whole band lifted with Josh’s solo. Another great cover.

Mark Knopfler made me want to play guitar. You obviously all have so much fun playing this. Great job from all involved.

This is the video that introduced me to Martin Miller and the band. It’s such a tasteful cover of a real classic. Every part is true to the original but with clever twists, which results in one of the best modern interpretations I have encountered. Martin’s solo from 3:30 to 4:50 is amazing...every chromatic run is perfect...every tone and intonation is spot on...fantastic! Excellent music makes me laugh out of joy and this one keeps me smiling. I’ve listened to it about 50x and will continue to come back to it. It’s the best cover of Dire Straits on the planet.

I haven't heard anything like this! All of them are perfect!

Probably my favourite of yours. I come back to this one over and over again. Thank you so much for this.

When you see a Martin Miller video you first give like and then whatch

This is the first time I've ever hear Josh Smith play. Holy cow!! That boy's got more chops than a street full of butcher shops.

Joshs sound speaks to me... Damn... An authentic electric guitar sound with that spring reverb. great!

absolute masterpiece. i'm so impressed with this. such a lovely take on an already guitar-heavy jam. WELL DONE!

The bass and drums is killing it as always! Best rhythm section on KZfaq for sure.

Sitting here in Japan soaking my feet in an Onsen drinking whiskey and then Martin does that. If I died now it wouldn’t be a bad way to go. Amazing work Martin, Josh and crew. 👍👍🎸🥃👍👍🇯🇵

Fantastic performance! ... and the dialogue between the two guitars at the and is amazing. Friendly regards from Bulgaria and Black Sea!!!

Just discovered the session. Am watchin' them on and on. Just amazin'!!!

Incredible, as usual. As a Mark Knopfler fan, i must recognize that sometimes is very nice to see Dire Straits songs taken on another way.

Jesus wept. If that didn't get you playing air guitar, banging out the odd double bass drum and generally losing yourself in that you need to get help. Awesome. Stunning. Simply stunning.

What a band, what a drummer!!!!😍😍😍

I'm discovering Josh Smith. Perfect performance, unique taste, flawless playing. 15000/10.

Always perfect. Keep on the amazing job guys - thanks!

just discovered the Martin Miller Sessions, EPIC

Man oh man! I love that song. This is THE version I have always wanted to hear! This is just jaw dropping stuff!!

seriously amazing music, has been my favorite thing to listen to for like 2 years. its just so damn good.

First time ever that I see a Sultans of Swing version that can change the song and the solo but keep the same energy, the same feeling, being fun, catchy, and perfect in every aspect. BRAVO!

Holy crap u both just blew my mind my god seriously the last five minutes of song I couldn’t stop smiling seriously just brightened my day amazing truly amazing

Much love to Martin Miller and his amazing band for putting together these huge covers and bringing such interesting musicians to play with them, its something else And since ive seen so many people talk about Josh, i just wanted to give my wows to Martin, cuz omg those licks, the man doesnt quite know how many licks from these videos i (and a lot of people im sure) have stolen from him. From the harmonic minor stuff, to the beautiful melodic ideas, to the fast licks (man slow down, some of us cant run that fast ;-;) and also something that is normal to maybe go unnoticed but his comping in the whole song and joshs solo is amazing, the dude can do anything, amazing amazing amazing The only thing i havent seen people point in Josh's playing that id like to mention is his ability to create tension with very few notes and his ability to hear the band and really glue to them, especially on his solo Much love to everyone, this comes 3 years late but i hope you guys keep on making us feel blessed to hear such amazing musicians play!

That's one of the sweetest sounding tele's I've heard in a while!

Miller is obviously an amazing player, but I just love Josh’s overall tone and style here a lot better. He really rips. Wish more people knew about him

Just goes to show that the best musicians out there aren't always super famous

such great shredders. the singer came very close to finding the heart of the song. I'm glad he took over the lead at the end.

Ive never heard dire straits played better by anyone other than them. This is special

Oh man! This is just smokin'! Thank you for making and sharing.

I adore this song and I love you guys ,so seeing you play it is the best thing everr👍😊

whole group and its sound is superb awesome...view from the videoman also superb

The more Martin Miller clips I watch the more I just love the drummer - what a perfect pocket.

Sultans of fusion 😭😭😭😭

Great playing all the way around. Love Martin’s tone.

cara eu vou falar uma coisa... EU AMO VOCÊS! vocês são DEMAIS!!!

I don't remember how many times a have see this video. I really love this version.

Versiones únicas de los mejores temas.Y los interpretes inigualables. Saludos desde Uruguay.

Whoever mixed this deserves a medal

I got goosebumps multiple times watching this. Wow!

Josh, you are amazing! Great tone and timing!! And the band is also very wonderfull!

A brilliant take on Sultans of Swing, top notch!

Josh’s solo is unbelievable, I mean Jesus h Christ on a bike the man is unreal...💪💪💪😍

That signature lick on the outro solo played by Josh and Martin was so tight it sounded like one person. 😮🎉😊

I never, never comment but OMG.. WOW… i hope Mark Knopfler has listened to this and if he did, two things should’ve happened, tears of joy in his eyes and a phone call to arrange a session with you guys…

Amazing. Just amazing. And kudos to the drummer- so on point and such a groove... Thanks for sharing, guys. Really appreciate what you do here. Cheers

josh & martin will make this world a better place to live 😌😌 the other member of the band too😊😊

Man, just amazing performing! The best cover of this song I've ever seen

This all seems to come together very nicely is an understatement. WoW 😮
