Sheer bliss

ByA customeron 22 April 2003

Format: Audio CD

As long as you can handle the only slightly dated feel of The Walk of life and Twisting by the pool, this album is fantastic. Knopfler (lead guitar) is really in his element here, and his sensibility shines through. One of the best soft rock albums available and almost certainly the best DS album.

Money for Great Rock!

ByRich Milliganon 27 January 2005

Format: Audio CD

Whether or not you can be classed as a Dire Straits fan I would seriously doubt if there isn't a place for this superb recording in anyone's CD collection.
12 absolutely brilliant tracks covering the band's best output from 1978 to 1984 and whilst there isn't a weak track amongst them there are some outstanding songs on this collection. You have two eight minute plus rock sagas in "Tunnel of Love" and a superb live version of "Telegraph Road", high tempo rock and roll in "Twisting by the Pool", moody atmospheric songs like "Where do you think you're going" and "Private Investigations" and for those who like their more popular wide-appeal offerings there "Walk of Life" and "Money for Nothing"
My personal favourites are the bitter-sweet romantic "Romeo and Juliet" and the tragic "Brothers in Arms"
As I say this album really does show the band off in their pomp and I would recommend it for any fan of good honest rock music.

No better place than to start here

ByJayon 13 March 2007

Format: Audio CD

f you are looking to buy a Dire Straits album, no better place than to start here. This contains all the best songs from their debut up to 'Brothers In Arms'. The songs are predominantly in original studio form and not edited in the case of 'Sultans of Swing', 'Romeo and Juliet' and 'Tunnel of Love'. And the one superb cut from the otherwise overrated live album ALCHEMY is included here in the form of 'Telegraph Road'.

Money for Nothing' has its moments and is a good intro to DS

ByThe GuardianTOP 100 REVIEWERVINE VOICEon 20 January 2014

Format: Audio CD

`Money for Nothing' released in 1988 is the first of three `greatest hits' collections of Dire Straits' music. It excludes material from the last studio album `On Every Street' (1991). Most tracks are the original album versions, but `Brothers in Arms' & `Money for Nothing' are slightly edited `single versions' for radio play and inferior to the original album releases.

MFN is worth buying just for the excellent live performances of `Telegraph Road' and `Portobello Belle' which were originally considered for the `Alchemy' release but didn't make it; both are much better than the studio-album versions. You also get the single `Twisting by the Pool' which appeared only briefly on an EP, but not on any of the band's albums.

If your record collection only has space for a couple of DS albums, I would suggest this collection plus the 1991 album `On Every Street'. If you have room for one more, consider either the eponymous debut or `Love over Gold.'

Excellent

ByA customeron 24 April 2004

Format: Audio CD

This is the definitive DS collection. It is actually better than the'Sultans Of Swing' compilation even though there is none of their latermaterial on it.
'Sultans Of Swing', 'Romeo and Juliet' and 'Tunnel of Love' in theiroriginal forms and not edited and the live remix of 'Telegraph Road' is asuperb offering from the otherwise over-rated ALCHEMY set. The only thingis that 'Money for Nothing' and 'Brothers In Arms' have been edited onthis. For this reason you'll want the 'Brothers In Arms' CD as well. Otherwise a perfect intro to Dire Straits.
