Dire Straits - Money For Nothing (Greatest Hits) [2022 Remaster]

Originally released in October 1988, Money For Nothing was the original hits package celebrating Dire Straits' first five albums. It includes all the favourites like “Sultans Of Swing”, “Romeo And Juliet”, “Money For Nothing” and “Walk Of Life”. Newly remastered by Bob Ludwig, Money For Nothing, it includes two rare tracks “Telegraph Road (Live Remix)” which was previously only available on the original CD format, and a previously unreleased alternative live version of “Portobello Belle (Live)”.

Dire Straits straddled the globe with their sophisticated rootsy guitar rock wedded to literate story-telling lyrics. Emerging from the club and pub circuit in 1977, Dire Straits were led by charismatic Geordie singer-songwriter, record producer and composer Mark Knopfler. Widely regarded as one of the most successful musicians hailing from the UK and is often cited as one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

Heavyweight audiophile double vinyl produced by Mercury Records in 2022. The album is cut over four sides for the first time and features faithfully replicated original artwork. Remastered from the original sources by Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering.
