Dire Straits - Money for Nothing - Green Color Vinyl 2LP
Released in 1988, as fans waited for a follow-up to the massive Brothers in Arms, Money for Nothing was the first career-spanning compilation from Dire Straits, and it remains one of the best ways to hear what made Mark Knopfler's band so special: that fluid, finger-picked guitar tone, wry storytelling and songs that unfold at their own unhurried pace.
All the essentials are here, from the breakthrough "Sultans of Swing" and the cinematic "Romeo and Juliet" to the stadium-sized "Walk of Life," "Money for Nothing" and the aching title song of Brothers in Arms. Collectors will also appreciate the alternatives that set this set apart from a standard hits package: a live version of "Portobello Belle," a remix of "Twisting by the Pool" and a live "Telegraph Road" that stretches out gloriously.
This remastered reissue spreads the twelve songs across two LPs on green color vinyl, giving the music plenty of room to breathe. An easy recommendation for classic rock fans and a great starting point for anyone new to the band.
