Hey everyone !
One of the first CDs I got was the "On every street"-album by the mighty DIRE STRAITS, back in 1991.
Now, playing the great music of Dire Straits with the tribute-band BROTHERS IN ARMS night for night ( check our tourdates...! ), I rediscovered all these awesome songs by Mark Knopfler.
Among the well-known hits like "Sultans..", "Money...and "So far..." I stumbled about some ( for me ) forgotten jewels, like that Song IRON HAND on "On every street".
The song relates to the "Battle of Orgreave" of 1984, where British mine-workers on strike and police-forces clashed in violent riots.
That song touched me deeply, and I just had to gave it a try on my own.
So here is my cover of IRON HAND, with a deep bow before mark Knopfler
and Dire Straits.

Hey everyone !
While spending some vacation-time in Croatia this summer, sitting on the balcony, guitar on my lap and enjoying the sea-view, a little instrumental-tune occured to me.
Back home in Cologne I hit my studio and recorded it, simple as it was, one guitar played in a microphone ( well...two mics tbh ). So, now here it is for you all to enjoy.
It´s called "Free Hugs", I hope you like it.
