SOUND & VISION Series.
Knopfler and his band were full of rock & roll romance and proved it through their first four recordings time and again. They couldn't help but become superstars and mainstays of MTV. But there is another story told on this best-of, which begins with "Telegraph Road." The story-songs Knopfler wrote were always the best anyway, and this set is full of them, from "Sultans" to "Romeo & Juliet," "Skateaway," "So Far Away," "Walk of Life," and (of course) "Brothers in Arms," which made for the most dramatic marriage of the little screen and rock music when it was featured in the closing sequence of an episode of Miami Vice. But there are many other stops along the way, like "Private Investigations," "Sailing to Philadelphia," and "The Long Road" (from Cal). But "On Every Street," "Calling Elvis," and "What It Is" are here, too, making for a wonderfully rounded if argumentative best-of collection that goes the distance and explains sonically what all the fuss was about in the first place. There's the guitar sound that's as much Tony Joe White as it is J.J. Cale and Billy Gibbons, and the elegance of James Burton and Chet Atkins.
COMPILATION INCLUDES:
DVD- Mark Knopfler: A NIGHT IN LONDON (Recorded In 1996);
CD1 & CD2- The Best Of Dire Straits & Mark Knopfler: PRIVATE INVESTIGATIONS.
Deluxe three disc (PAL/Region 0 DVD + two CD) Sound And Vision edition of this solid collection, a compelling career overview of one of rock's most distinctive groups. Includes the two CD compilation of Dire Straits and Knopfler solo recordings plus the companion DVD. Led by Mark Knopfler, whose deadpan vocal style and stunning guitar technique characterize the band's sound, Dire Straits burst on the scene in 1978. This very best of features the 1991 release, 'On Every Street', the Dylan-esque narrative of 'Romeo and Juliet' and at the collection's heart are the tracks from the 1985 blockbuster 'Brothers in Arms', including the bopping 'Walk of Life', and the irrepressible 'Money for Nothing'. Beyond showcasing Knopfler's excellent songwriting, this album is graced by his light, technically precise guitar technique (he finger-picks all of his electric leads).
Presented In A DVD-Sized Deluxe Tri-Fold Digipak With Transparent Color Trays Includes 16-Page Booklet And Housed In A Cardboard Slipcase With Hype Sticker On Front.
