Probably the biggest vinyl release since the reissue of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. Really, how much bigger than Brothers in Arms can it get? One of the greatest and most popular records of all time, mastered by Stan Ricker and pressed on 180-gram virgin vinyl at Record Technology, Inc. The nine songs are even spread out over two pieces of vinyl (four sides) to optimize your cartridge's trackability. THIS IS HUGE!!
Dire Straits' biggest-selling album — in fact, one of the biggest-selling albums worldwide of all time — Brothers In Arms helped musically define a decade. A sophisticated rock masterpiece, the 1985 album reached No. 1, stayed there nine weeks and is nine times platinum. "Money For Nothing," the song that helped immortalize the phrase "I want my MTV," hit No. 1 and won the Grammy for Best Rock Performance. Today, Brothers In Arms remains a rock essential — and now is offered as a two-disc vinyl album.
