"Mark and David Knopfler, sons of an architect, both learned guitar in their teens. Mark became a rock critic at the Yorkshire Evening Post while working for an English degree. He then taught problem students at Loughton College and an adult extension course, worked in South London pub bands, and wrote songs. By early 1977, Mark was teaching literature part-time and jamming with David (then a social worker) and David's roommate, John Illsley, a timber broker who was pursuing a sociology degree at the University of London. In July 1977, after rehearsing with studio drummer Pick Withers, the group made a five-track demo tape that included "Sultans of Swing." Critic and DJ Charlie Gillett played "Sultans" on his BBC radio show, "Honky Tonkin'," and listeners and record companies responded. The band got an offer to open for Talking Heads on a 1978 U.K. tour, and afterwards, spent 12 days and about $25,000 to record #DireStraits (Number Two, 1979), which eventually sold 3 million copies in the U.S. and approximately 11 million copies worldwide."
