Dire Straits: Brothers In Arms (Limited Edition) (SHM-CD)

There are hit albums. There are blockbusters. And then there’s *Brothers in Arms*. One of the world’s best-selling albums, it catapulted Mark Knopfler and his band to the top and won two Grammy Awards, including one in the “Best Mixing” category. MTV may have contributed to the album’s enormous success, but it’s above all the superbly crafted songs and the unforgettable instrumental performances by the musicians involved that make it a classic. Mark Knopfler’s guitar riffs and Sting’s vocals on “Money for Nothing” are—and will always remain—unmistakable to any music lover. Dire Straits’ fifth studio album, released in 1985 and produced by Mark Knopfler and Neil Dorfsman, is now available as a limited-edition Japanese SHM-CD with a paper sleeve: Replica of the original LP sleeve with original artwork, a miniature version of the Japanese obi strip, an inner sleeve, and a white booklet with Japanese translations of the lyrics.
