What do you think of its recording quality?

I have Brother In Arms (Original Recording Remaster) and it sounds execllent to my ear.

thanks.

Its not what you asked about, but this album is phenomenal...the best DS album IMHO.  Its also their first.  The sonics are supreme as well.

...the best DS album IMHO. 

In mine too. Love over Gold is a distant second IMO.

Thanks.

I recall that i listened to this album (song #6 Sultan of Swing) when i demoed the speaker at the local dealer. It was awesome. I  will get this one a part of my collection.

Since asking, i wonder if you also like the album "Making Movies" ?

IMO all of Mark Knopfler's recording whether Dire Straits or solo are very good.  One of my favorite recording is:

Mark Knopfler: One Take Radio Sessions

Excellent Sonics and Great Music

Enjoy,

A lot more songs, including some solo stuff by Mark Knopfler. Also that one is a HDCD (if you use a CD player that can take advantage of it).

I thought it was a disappointment.  I bought their debut album when it came out and was blown away.  Communiqué was a strong follow up but Making Movies fell flat.  If it wasn't for "Private Investigations," Love Over Gold would have been a major disappointment too.  Whatever happened to Pick Withers?

I was wondering if Private Investigation recording quality is up to the level of Dire Straits ( Original Remaster)?

thanks.
