I have the recording of "Tunnel of Love",
where Mark Knopfler is singing only, but I have read there was an
earlier recording, where another band member of Dire Straits (perhaps
Hal Lindes) also sang the song and played guitar (in addition to Mark
playing guitar). Do
you know where I can find the earlier recording?
Thanks.
It's not John Illsley.

Hello vagal32-ga,
Perhaps the version of the song that you are looking for is the one
that appears on the 1995 Dire Straits CD ?Live at the BBC?.
You can hear a clip of this live version at the link below.

Could it be John Illsley?
It probably is the "Live at BBC" where there is an older recording on
the record. The link you sent just has music, so I can't hear if Mark
or Hal are singing. I have ordered the CD, so I will find out when it
arrives next week.
Thanks for your help
