With faultless musicianship and memorable songs that quickly connected with music lovers, it was clear the group would set their own path, proving that, even amid the new-wave era, classic songwriting would never go out of fashion. After three years of relentless hard work, touring, writing and recording their music, the group entered the 1980s well on their way to becoming the biggest-selling band in the world. That year’s Making Movies album would also make its presence felt on the silver screen, thanks to the inclusion of the UK No.8 single ‘Romeo And Juliet’ – later used in films such as Empire Records, Hot Fuzz and I, Tonya – and live favourite ‘Tunnel Of Love’, which featured in the 1982 Richard Gere film, An Officer and a Gentleman. Dire Straits’ frontman, Mark Knopfler, would later explain to The Times how satisfying it was to write ‘Tunnel Of Love’: “It’s the moment when you know you’re really on to something,” he said. “There’s a certain part of the song that I call the breakdown and when I got there I could feel the drums, the piano, all the things that I wanted all the instruments to do. When you get to that state, there’s a strange sense of one thing following another, of elements falling into place quite naturally.” Paying extra attention to those elements, this half-speed master of Making Movies has been overseen by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios, in London, resulting in a cut that has a superior high-frequency response (treble) and very solid and stable stereo images. Pressed on 180g vinyl, it comes with alternative artwork that swaps the red and the blue of the original album sleeve, plus a printed inner sleeve, a “Half-Speed Master”-branded obi-strip and an Abbey Road certificate of authenticity.” Artist Dire Straits Genre Rock And Pop Label UMR Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP , Half Speed Mastered Condition New Country UK Track Listings Tunnel of Love Romeo and Juliet Skateaway Expresso Love Hand In Hand Solid Rock Les Boys Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Dire Straits View Product Quick View Dire Straits The Live Albums: 1978-1992 Rock And Pop | UMR/Mercury | 12LP, Box Set Released 3rd November 2023 £199.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dire Straits The Live Albums: 1978-1992 £199.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: UMR/Mercury SKU: 5540596 Formats: 12LP, Box Set Released Date: 3rd November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dire Straits On Every Street (SACD) Rock And Pop | Mobile Fidelity | SACD Released 16th January 2024 £46.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dire Straits On Every Street (SACD) £46.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: UDSACD2239 Formats: SACD Released Date: 16th January 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dire Straits On Every Street Rock And Pop | Mobile Fidelity | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released 16th January 2024 £73.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dire Straits On Every Street £73.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: LMF510 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 16th January 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dire Straits Money For Nothing Rock And Pop | EMI | 180g, 2LP Released 10th June 2022 £30.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Dire Straits Money For Nothing £30.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: EMI SKU: 3863194 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 10th June 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Dire Straits Brothers In Arms (Half Speed Master) Rock And Pop | Abbey Road Half Speed | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 19th March 2021 £40.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Dire Straits Brothers In Arms (Half Speed Master) £40.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Abbey Road Half Speed SKU: ARHSDLP4 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 19th March 2021 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Dire Straits Studio Albums 1978-1991 Rock And Pop | Rhino | 8LP, Box Set Released 16th October 2020 £225.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dire Straits Studio Albums 1978-1991 £225.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Rhino SKU: ARHI567156 Formats: 8LP, Box Set Released Date: 16th October 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dire Straits Brothers In Arms Rock And Pop | Mobile Fidelity | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 26th January 2016 £73.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Dire Straits Brothers In Arms £73.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: MFSL2441 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 26th January 2016 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Dire Straits Brothers In Arms Mobile Fidelity | SACD Released 31st July 2013 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dire Straits Brothers In Arms £45.00 Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: UDSACD2099 Formats: SACD Released Date: 31st July 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dire Straits Love Over Gold Rock And Pop | UMC | 180g, 1LP Released 20th May 2014 £26.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Dire Straits Love Over Gold £26.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: UMC SKU: 3752906 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 20th May 2014 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Dire Straits On Every Street Rock And Pop | UMC | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 15th May 2014 £30.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Dire Straits On Every Street £30.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: UMC SKU: 3752914 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 15th May 2014 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket See more from Dire Straits Start again More from Rock And Pop On Sale View Product Quick View Matthew E.
