"Uncle" Joe Benson chronicles the life and music of the band Dire Straits, and he actually interviews Mark Knopfler in the studio for this one hour radio special. (And given that the two appear together, Knopfler took over the Segment Intro duties on this show.) The show contains commercials and studio tracks from several of the band's albums. Tracks 1 - 4 are the actual radio show, Tracks 5 - 7 are promo spots, Tracks 8 - 15 are commercial spots, while Tracks 16 - 27 are the actual interview segments and segment intros separated into individual tracks.
