Dire Straits ORIG OZ LP Brothers in arms VG+ '85 Vertigo 8244991 Mark Knopfler
Original OZ LP released in 1985 on Vertigo Records. Cat: 8244991. Comes with printed lyric insert which is in Excellent condition.
Brothers in Arms brought the atmospheric, jazz-rock inclinations of Love Over Gold into a pop setting, resulting in a surprise international best-seller. Of course, the success of Brothers in Arms was helped considerably by the clever computer-animated video for "Money for Nothing," a sardonic attack on MTV. But what kept the record selling was Mark Knopfler's increased sense of pop songcraft -- "Money for Nothing" had an indelible guitar riff, "Walk of Life" is a catchy up-tempo boogie variation on "Sultans of Swing," and the melodies of the bluesy "So Far Away" and the down-tempo, Everly Brothers-style "Why Worry" were wistful and lovely.
Tracks : So far away/ Money for nothing/ Walk of life/ Your latest trick/ Why worry/ Ride across the river/ The man's too strong/ One world/ Brothers in arms.
