Remember classic FM radio, and hearing this?
Was watching this clip of Sultans by Dire Straits, and remembering when I first heard it on FM radio, way back about 78-79. Had never heard anything like it. My exposure at the time was much more Zep, VH, Boston, etc., and this blew my mind. Here is a great live version.
