Dire Straits Box Set Vinyl Review

I am pleased with the quality of the sound when the pressing is good.

Dire straits box set vinyl review.

It is a shame alchemy and the ep isn t included. That s the way you do it. The aptly named the studio albums 1978 1991 will be released by virgin umc in europe and warner rhino in the u s. The last song had a circular defect about the size of a eraser on the top of a pencil.

In 1978 dire straits arrived with a magnificent self titled first album. I can still remember my favorite record shop owner playing it for me. Well pressed 180g vinyl the mastering is as good as the original release. Also on october 9 umc virgin will release a repressing of the hugely popular eight lp vinyl box set of 2013 also titled dire straits the studio albums 1978 1991.

Extremely quiet and the music shine through. You could tell it was the end of the road for dire straits with the final album but mark knopfler s solo albums and tours show he made a smart move in mothballing dire straits. It hit the synapses in all the right sequence. Dire straits 1978 communiqué 1979 making movies 1980 love over gold 1982 brothers in arms 1985 and on.

Have lusted for this box set since it came out. The music needs no introduction dire straits came to power with this debut album with a wide range of well recorded songs that makes this an album to own. In my first set brother in arms had multiple scratches and communique was awesome until the last song of side 2.
