Several good songs on this album. Very underrated... For me it's a classic as it holds up after all these years. I still play it and enjoy hearing it in the RP rotation.... Brings back pleasant memories of different times and places around the world where this album was in the background, car, beach... Nice.

Sounds like this digital might have come from a good piece of vinyl.   It is warm but crackles here and there,  just like my old Rega Planar with an AKG cartridge.

Once again the PSD button gives me exactly what I need to listen to before I know what I want. Neat trick.

Can't be anything but one of the greatest songs ever. Rare musicianship and lyrics full of story and imagery.

Not as crazy about this plain Dire Straits stuff. It's aching to be 'Sultans of Swing'...sounds like a sister to it. I really LOVE Mark Knopfler's solo stuff a bit more...oh well. I'll take this over something like Bob Dylan or Rolling Stones any day.

How dare Mark have his own inimitable sound!  Wah!!

Amazing that this album came out right between the peak of disco (which i know people think of as a "70's" thing but it really peaked between 77 and 82....) and 80's hair-bands/Wham/Madonna/depeche mode (what do we call that genre?).

She took off her silver locket
She said "Remember me by this"
She put her hand in my back pocket
I got a keepsake and a kiss

And in the roar of dust and diesel
I stood an' watched her walk away
I coulda caught up with her easy enough
But something musta made me stay.

Sheer poetry.
