Dire Straits - британская рок-группа, основанная в 1977 году Марком Нопфлером (гитара, вокал), его братом Дэвидом Нопфлером (гитара), басистом Джоном Иллсли и ударником Пиком Уизерсом. Менеджером группы на протяжении почти всей её карьеры был Эд Бикнелл. Музыкальный стиль Dire Straits, развившийся из паб-рока, может быть охарактеризован как мелодичный блюз-рок, испытавший сильное влияние кантри, рок-н-ролла, фолка и джаза. В творчестве группы преобладали меланхоличные композиции.
Dire Straits вошла в число наиболее коммерчески успешных групп в истории рок-музыки, в общей сложности было продано более 120 миллионов копий их альбомов. Самый популярный альбом группы, Brothers in Arms, разошёлся тиражом более 30 миллионов копий.

However, the concert was recorded on May 21,1992 at Les Arenes, Nîmes, France and May 29,1992 at Feijenoord Stadion, Rotterdam, Netherlands. Shortly after, Dire Straits disbanded as lead singer Mark Knopfler embarked on a solo career.
The video version of On the Night included three additional tracks: "The Bug", "Solid Rock" and "Wild Theme" (from the Local Hero soundtrack).
