Podcasts about Dire Straits

Another 2 Hours of great music from Tina Turner, Roxette, The Beach Boys, Donna Summer, The Eagles, Dire Straits and loads more.

Barry and Abigail discuss Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits and sample Wild Dog – Pale Ale and Wild Dog – Shempa Ale from Tiemann Beer in Lusaka, Zambia; Strawberry Rhubarb from New Glarus Brewing Company in New Glarus, Wisconsin; Coconut Key Lime Pie Drips and Mischievous Grin from Barn Town Brewing in West Des Moines, Iowa; and Gallo / Famosa from Cervecería Centro Americana in Guatemala City, Guatemala.Read about how the Money for Nothing music video came to be, or watch the video.We first sampled New Glarus on our season 4 Christmas episode, Christmas Beers (Straight No Chaser and Gifted Beers).Barry pointed out that Walk of Life references other songs, and Abigail compared it to American Pie by Don McLean.Abigail formally retracted a fun “fact” she had previously shared on the podcast regarding artificial banana flavoring being based on the Gros Michel banana instead of the Cavendish banana, which is the most common banana cultivar eaten today. The 2013 SciShow video where she first learned this false fact has since been edited to remove any reference to this hypothesis but points to this article that explains the hypothesis. This Hank Green video first brought the debunking of this hypothesis to Abigail's attention.We first sampled Barn Town on our season 4 episode Barntown (Phish and Barn Town Brewery).Abigail called Why Worry an “adult lullaby,” similar to Calm Down by Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons. She then entered Why Worry into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music with a comparison to Little April Shower from Bambi (1942). She also brought up Baby Genius by Eels as having instrumental similarities. Barry mentioned Rain by Hans Zimmer from Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron (2002). The “vibes” in the personnel list likely refers to the vibraphone, which could very well have produced the rain sounds in Why Worry.Abigail asked if Mischievous Grin would count as a “cream tangerine” (we have officially gone zero episodes without mentioning the White Album!).Barry had heard that the three war songs on this album were inspired by the Falklands War between Argentina and the United Kingdom that lasted for a little over two months in 1982. Abigail had always pictured the Vietnam War, partly because of the imagery in Ride Across the River, and partly because Abigail's consumption of war media was heavily influenced by The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien, a novel about the Vietnam War.While discussing The Man's Too Strong, Abigail referenced an in-character speech by comedian and professional Dungeon Master Brennan Lee Mulligan.Up next… Version 2.0 by Garbage, Abigail's annual Phone-a-Friend submission, this time with Carlo “from Canada” Sgro, the namesake of Carlo's Corner!Jingles are by our friend Pete Coe.Visit Anosmia Awareness for more information on Barry's condition.Follow Barry or Abigail on Untappd to see what we're drinking when we're not on mic!Leave us a rating or a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | YouTube | Substack | Website | Email us | Virtual Jukebox | Beer Media Group

Pour tous ceux qui ont connu le début des années 80, le nom de Simple Minds occupe sûrement une place particulière. Évidemment, on n'était pas des milliers en mars 82 et 84 à l'Ancienne Belgique, alors le temple de la New Wave avec le Beursschouwburg. Mais l'ambiance y était. Par contre, on était des dizaines de milliers en 83 à Torhout et Werchter. Les examens étaient finis et les vacances commençaient avec U2, l'après-midi, et Simple Minds qui concluaient la soirée, juste avant la tête d'affiche, Peter Gabriel. Les Minds n'avaient alors jamais joué devant un public aussi nombreux, et c'était chez nous. Jim Kerr ne portait pas encore les pantalons comme des oreilles d'éléphant qu'il allait arborer deux ans plus tard sur la scène du Live Aid, le plus grand festival de tous les temps. Il était alors la plus crédible incarnation du nouveau David Bowie, celui que toute la New Wave imitait de Depeche Mode à Duran Duran, en passant par Gary Numan. Mais Jim Kerr n'imitait pas Bowie. Il adoptait une attitude particulière sur scène, tous les yeux étaient focalisés sur lui, un charisme dingue, on n'avait plus vu ça … ben, depuis David Bowie.Et il faut bien ça. Car autant U2 est un groupe dont on identifie très bien depuis le début, ses quatre membres, autant on s'y perd avec Simple Minds. Ils changent de personnel quasiment à chaque album, voire single. Et comme ils ont sorti sept 33 Tours en l'espace de six ans, ça fait du mouvement. Non, vraiment, de Simple Minds on ne retient que Jim Kerr, et puis le guitariste Charlie Burchill, le seul à être aussi présent depuis le début. Mais bon, ça le fait d'avoir un poster de Simple Minds dans sa chambre ou son kot, au début des années 80. Ce nom étrange et ces images insolites qui servent de pochette à leurs 30 cm, ça vous pose un max devant les copains et les copains des copains. C'est branché, Simple Minds ! Alors comme à l'époque, il n'y a pas internet, y a des gars qui prétendent que ça veut dire les “simples d'esprits”. Sauf qu'en anglais on place l'adjectif avant le nom, et donc, ça fait “esprits simples”.OK, ça reste pas beaucoup plus valorisant. Sauf que, et on y revient, ça vient d'une chanson de David Bowie. Oui, dans Jean Genie, époque Ziggy Stardust … et dans le contexte, ça correspond tellement bien à la mentalité des Ecossais qu'ils sont. C'est vrai, quand vous entrez dans un pub en Ecosse, vous ne restez pas seuls, on vit ensemble, et on chante à tue-tête le vendredi soir avec le gars qui vient jouer avec sa guitare pour mettre l'ambiance. Sept ans après avoir choisi ce nom, les Simple Minds sont bien loin de l'arrière-salle de leur pub de Glasgow, ils sont sur le toit du monde parmi les groupes britanniques qui vendent le plus de disques, avec Dire Straits, Queen et Duran Duran …

durée : 00:04:15 - "Walk of Life" de Dire Straits : 40 ans de bonheur ! - par : Max Dozolme - Le 29 novembre 1985, il y a 40 ans, sortait le single "Walk of Life", l'un des plus grands tubes du groupe de rock britannique Dire Straits. Une chanson pleine de références musicales et qui nous dit de faire comme un certain Johnny : prendre avec joie le chemin de la vie ! Vous aimez ce podcast ?

Les années 80, ça nous plaît, hein. La bonne musique funky, la pop électro, les synthés, la liberté de ton, la grosse éclate permanente. Franchement, on a vécu pire comme décennie, et probablement pas mieux. En 1985, on était au beau milieu du parcours et franchement, si on nous avait dit que cela n'allait pas durer ainsi, on se serait tous mis à freiner des quatre fers pour y rester le plus longtemps possible. Et donc aujourd'hui, un tas de gens nous disent tout le bien qu'ils pensent de ces années 80 même s'ils n'étaient pas nés ou étaient haut comme trois pommes, et encore, seulement à la fin. Et donc, je peux vous dire que les vivre, c'était quelque chose. Tenez 1985, on nous bassine toujours, et à raison, le même Live Aid mais grands dieux, il ne s'est pas passé que ça. 1985, c'est l'année du triomphe sans précédent de Dire Straits, quatre hits phénoménaux sur le même album … l'année où le Thriller de Michael Jackson atteint les 42 millions ‘exemplaires … du retour phénoménal de Kate Bush … et où Phil Collins règne sans partage sur le métier du disque … 1985, c'est bien l'album Positif de Jean-Jacques Goldman … du premier album de Jeanne Mas … Serge Gainsbourg remplit le Casino de Paris, Luc Besson débarque avec son ovni Subway, et puisqu'on parle cinéma, on court voir par millions Trois hommes et un couffin, Rambo II, Retour vers le futur, Out of Africa et un film pour ados, avec des ados, intitulé The breakfast Club.Pour nous, en Europe, et surtout en Belgique, le mec qui chante le générique final, on le connaissait déjà depuis des années, c'est Jim Kerr de Simple Minds. Mais pour la plupart des Américains, c'est une découverte qui vaut au groupe leader de la New Wave de faire une improbable percée dans ce pays où le son de cette musique ne s'est pas encore vraiment imposé. Le succès énorme et surprise du single vaut à Simple Minds d'être du bon côté de l'Atlantique le jour du Live Aid, à Philadelphie. Ah ben oui, quand U2 fait ce qui est pour nous, sa légendaire prestation sur la scène de Wembley vers 17.15, il est 9.15 à Los Angeles. Pas évident d'être devant sa télé. Tandis que pour Simple Minds, il est 14.00, un jour de week-end. Tout est dit. Alors justement, l'album que le groupe doit sortir à l'automne, pas question de le rater ; il est d'autant plus attendu que la prestation de Jim Kerr a été remarquée au Live Aid. Ah, il sort du lot, le gars, il a une attitude particulière, bien rodée par des années de succès à travers l'Europe. Et de fait, ce septième album de Simple Minds, qui s'intitule Once Upon A Time, je ne dois pas vous traduire, c'est le Purple Rain de Simple Minds : non seulement celui qui se vendra le plus, grâce au marché américain, mais aussi le meilleur d'un groupe qui nous en avait pourtant déjà sorti de solides. Quarante ans plus tard, avec ses cinq tubes devenus des classiques, il marque d'une pierre blanche le milieu d'une décennie d'exception. Car parmi tant d'autres chefs d'œuvres inoxydables parus cette année-là, il est le révélateur du fait que jamais la musique pop n'a atteint un tel niveau de qualité et de production. Et quand on mettait l'album sur la platine, il commençait comme ceci …

Chaque jour depuis des décennies, nous sommes des millions à regarder la télévision. Quel succès pour un meuble ! Cette vanne de Coluche nous avait bien fait rire à l'époque. Et depuis cette époque, elle a bien changé, notre télé. Je ne parle pas du fait qu'elle soit devenue ultra plate avec un son de cinéma, non. Mais plutôt qu'elle offre une myriade de chaînes et de plateformes. C'est vrai, aujourd'hui, tous les soirs, c'est “chacun regarde ce qui lui plaît”. Et donc, on a perdu la grande communion télévisuelle, celle qui faisait que le lendemain, on avait quasiment tous vu le même programme : on pouvait partager les émotions qu'on avait ressenties. Et justement, ce week-end, je me suis arrêté sur une chaîne que ça faisait plus de vingt ans que je ne l'avais plus regardée : MTV. Et ben, ça m'a fichu un coup parce que MTV, ça a quand même été une fête quand elle a débarqué en Belgique et en France au début des années 90. C'est vrai qu'on en entendait parler depuis dix ans sans pouvoir la regarder. On se disait que ça devait être le pied de pouvoir regarder des clips à n'importe quelle heure de la journée ; il suffisait d'allumer sa télé et hop, c'était parti. Ça devait vraiment être magique, MTV. C'était l'époque où le groupe Police en faisait la pub. C'est d'ailleurs ce qui avait donné l'inspiration à Mark Knopfler de ce fameux titre de Dire Straits en 1985 …Et donc début 90, quand cette chaîne musicale est enfin arrivée chez nous, on s'est calé devant le poste et c'est vrai qu'on a découvert un autre univers, à la fois américain et britannique. Alors pour ceux qui n'ont pas connu, ce n'était pas seulement un défilé de clips. Il y avait un tas d'émissions musicales dont certaines nous ont tous réunis en soirée comme MTV Unplugged. Combien d'entre vous ont regardé celui de Nirvana, Bob Dylan, Page et Plant, le presque Led Zeppelin, ou encore Rod Stewart. Des CD de l'émission figurent parmi les plus grands best sellers des années 90 comme celui d'Eric Clapton. Et puis les autres soirs on regardait Most Wanted avec l'incroyable Ray Cookes qui ne se contentait pas de lancer des vidéos. Nous, en Belgique, on le connaissait déjà car il avait été animateur télé sur la chaîne publique avant, mais là, il était déchaîné ! Il nous parlait tout près de la caméra comme s'il était dans notre salon, et il dialoguait avec le cameraman qui parfois répondait et dont on n'a jamais vu que l'ombre sur le décor. Et ça c'était une première dans l'histoire de la télé qu'un technicien donne la réplique à un animateur.Bref, on a encore tous quelque part dans notre tête, je vous l'ai rappelé, le I want my MTV, alors moi je dis I want my MTV back, rendez-nous notre MTV, celle qui nous a fait découvrir tant d'artistes dans les années 90 comme, tenez, TLC, qu'est-ce qu'il a tourné ce clip soul, cool et rafraîchissant, souvenez-vous ...

On this episode of Vinyl Verdict, Adam and Jamie talk about Jamie's first pick of Season 4, Dire Straits' "Alchemy". Released in 1984, it was their first live album and their fifth album in total. This album has been requested by our most loyal fan, Dave (sorry Sarah). Clocking in at two LPs and just a hair under 90 minutes in length, "Alchemy" represents the final show of the tour in support of the album "Love Over Gold". Recorded via the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio at the Hammersmith Odeon, the album captures Mark Knopfler at his peak, and the crowd is absolutely eating it up like they're at a Led Zeppelin concert. But is the album more like iron pyrite than actual gold? Come along and find out!

Singer-songwriter Paul Brady joins Anton in conversation to chat about some of his favourite albums, the rumour that he was at one point linked to Dire Straits, as well as some of the highs and lows of his career.

I do think of my formative years a lot – and I think this started to happen more when my parents died in 2022. Music started to become huge for me around 1976 when I was 8 and started playing the cello…but I did have some music differences of opinion let's say as I got a bit older and started to  listen to “bang and thump music” as my dad used to call it  – I really struggled to reconcile what I now know is a beautiful instrument with the Ramones, who were changing my life and pulling me in the other direction – it was like I had an alter ego. I mean, it's not a big deal in the whole scheme of things, but you know, each to their own.  Anyway, I just devoured more and more music – bands like Killing Joke, Siouxsie, Au Pairs, Minutemen, Husker Du - and as I found more and more stuff through, mainly listening to Peel and other local radio – like Steve Barker's On The Wire and Tony Michaelides on Piccadilly or just taking a chance based on whether I liked the sleeve, I started to get into more of the avant garde, off kilter, skrunky, weird – Neubauten, Alien Sex Fiend, Bush Tetras, The Fall, Butthole Surfers and then there was a bit of a lightbox moment with Tackhead's Hard Left around 86, I think before Public Enemy came along and changed things again. There was also another band who completely flummoxed, intrigued and excited me - and that was Fini Tribe. There was the underground and there was Fini Tribe. I had no idea how to describe them. They didn't sound like anyone else. I had no idea what they looked like. And I didn't know much about them. And I had no idea what to expect. And of course, we lived in an age of genre obsession – still do - so they were real genre party poopers. So, by the time I was listening to Splash Care or Detestimony, there were frequent shouts of “turn that shit off”. I was very used to this. Especially from the fella that liked Dire Straits. But Fini Tribe awakened an excitement in me – listening to them was like Alice Through The Looking Glass stepping into another world that felt as distant and exciting to me as when I got those first Killing Joke records… I never got to see them live so to now have a wonderful compilation of their 1982-1987 years called The Sheer Action of Fini Tribe, diligently and lovingly brought to life by the band with tracks I've never heard before including some live tracks, well, it's well worth the wait. This is such an exhilarating and fascinating insight with Christopher Connelly and Davie Miller.https://www.iwannajumplikedeedee.comI Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently.
