Considered by many fans to be the group's most complete album, the 1980 set witnesses leader Mark Knopfler greatly expanding his songwriting palette and setting his storytelling amidst more complex, involving arrangements. Dire Straits also benefits from crucial contributions from Bruce Springsteen pianist Roy Bittan and the departure of rhythm guitarist David Knopfler. The songs spark with a m lange of poetry, passion, and cohesion that engages the senses and begs to be experienced again and again.Tracklist:A Tunnel Of LoveB1 Romeo And JulietB2 SkateawayC1 Expresso LoveC2 Hand In HandD1 Solid RockD2 Les BoysBass, vocals John IllsleyDrums, Vocals Pick WithersKeyboards Roy BittanVocals, Guitar [Guitars] Mark KnopflerMastered from analog tapes and pressed at RTI, Mobile Fidelity's 180g 45RPM 2LP set of Making Movies breathes with reference-caliber airiness, spaciousness, dynamics, and separation.
