About this album
Brothers In Arms is Dire Straits’ most commercially and critically influential album, combining Mark Knopfler’s fingerpicked guitar style with sharp songwriting and immaculate 1980s studio craft. Released in 1985, it turned the band into global arena stars and helped define the era’s polished rock sound without losing the blues roots at the core of their music. Driven by hits such as Money For Nothing and Walk Of Life, the album became a major international chart success and one of the decade’s best-selling records. Its mix of radio-friendly hooks, extended musicianship and widescreen production made it a landmark of mainstream rock.
