Dire Straits

By May 1992, Dire Straits was in the later stages of their career, with the release of their last studio album, "On Every Street," in 1991. The band was on their "On Every Street Tour," which included performances in major venues across Europe, such as the Feijenoord Stadium in Rotterdam, where this live recording of "Romeo & Juliet" took place. This concert exemplifies the band's enduring popularity and showcases their ability to blend rock and blues elements in live performances. Notably, the track "Romeo & Juliet," originally from their 1980 album "Making Movies," had become a signature song for the band, illustrating their knack for storytelling through music. As of this concert, Dire Straits was still experiencing significant commercial success despite the imminent dissolution that would follow shortly after, marking a transformative period in their legacy.
