Dire Straits Making Movies Half Speed Remastered Edition

Half Speed Re-Mastered edition. One of the most iconic groups of the late 20th century, Dire Straits established their timeless sound from the moment they first appeared on the London gig circuit, in 1977. 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 it's 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.
