  • Worth the extra for 180g records for long term quality.

    heavy weight records are more stable and less likely to warp so better quality sound.

  • Just an iconic Band

    This is one of the best album's from Dire Straits and this 180gm vinyl really show why with the sound quality played on my Music Hall 5.1mmf turntable which brings out all the highlights of there music. Not a mediocre track on this audiophile and definitely one for the collection. If you have a reasonable sound setu Money For Nothing is a must at a few decibels.

  • AWESOME remastered classic tunes

    This record is fricking AWESOME , the sound is amazing..... i actually still have the original vinyl for this but it is scratched so not all songs work well. This remastered version sounds better and because of its thickness is more durable and not going to buckle or give me any issues down the track. I love the sound this vinyl brings to the table and has made me fall in love with this album all over again. The one thing I am not a huge fan of is that the playlist is now split over 2 records so all records only have a couple of songs on them now and if you do not own an automatic record player then you have to watch for the end of the record much sooner than the original..... The cover and artwork is the same and it also comes with a version you can download straight to the PC. I hope purchasing this renewed classic gives you as much joy as I found in it again. Simon D
