Editorial Reviews

Vinyl LP pressing of this 1985 album from the British Rock band led by guitarist/vocalist Mark Knopfler. When their self-titled debut album was released in 1978, the band garnered plenty of attention but it took another seven years before BROTHERS IN ARMS turned them into global superstars. After one more studio album, the band split up but they left behind a lasting legacy that continues to be embraced by new fans and new generations every year.

Debris embedded in D-side
4 Stars
Debris embedded in D-side
A, B and C sides are all good, but D-side has white paper or plastic debris embedded in the black vinyl of the first 2 tracks. Cleaned with record cleaner and velvet sponge pad, but debris looks like it was pressed into record. Record pops loudly and skips in both spots, but does play through both spots also and doesn’t repeat skip.

Love this album, needed to add it to my Vinyl collection! If you're a Dire Straits fan for sure add this to yours as well, and if you're someone who loves rock, progressive rock, or loves hearing guitars jamming out this may be for you. It also came in packed very securely and safe, no worries for the record to be bent or ruined.

Dire Straits has been my favorite band since I was five years old. I love a lot of music but this band and this album have an unassailable place in my heart.

The purchase itself was impeccable though. Perfect condition, amazing sound, arrived in a safe and secure package ahead of schedule. 100% satisfaction.

I clicked Buy It Now too fast, not paying attention to the price and specifics. I recently decided to get a turntable and explore vinyl records again. I thought of some albums I loved back in the day and landed on this one. When it arrived I realized it was a total scam. No reason to split the music into 2 LPs and charge a premium price. Doesn’t sound better than a single disk. Dire Straits didn’t release it back in the 80s this way. Those who say they can hear a difference are delusional. However I blame no one but myself. I’ll pay more attention in the future. Shame on you Dire Straits and the record label.

Got this yesterday & I'm happy to report this is the "180 GRAM High-Performance 2-Disc Vinyl Record, Half-Speed Mastered by Stan Ricker, Plating & Pressing at R.T.I. version ($30.29 as of this posting). As you might or might not know, this version has the complete, un-altered full length versions of all songs. On the original album songs were trimmed to fit on 2-sides.
Haven't had a chance to do a full listen comparison to my 1st press of the album but I'm liking what I'm hearing! :)

180 Gram Virgin Vinyl - 093624937715

Half Speed Mastering by Stan Ricker - Limited Edition - Pressed at Plated at RTI

WOW!!! The sound was excellent, deep bass, great depth of soundstage, smooth rich tone and great dynamics! There is a reason they cut this Album on four full sides!"

Whatever you think of Knopler’s songwriting depth and the communicativeness of his delivery, there’s no denying the exquisite—though now sounding dated— mid-1980’s production quality. The sound quality of this album immediately attracted audiophiles back then and continues to do so today.

Even on his worst day, I wouldn’t bet against Bob Ludwig cutting at the Masterdisk lathe and the “RL MASTERDISK” original is still a potent sounding record. Stan Ricker’s half-speed cut, spread out over four sides, doesn’t attempt to re-create the original’s brash, forward and echoey sound. It’s somewhat drier, less “tinkly” and definitely gives musical images greater weight and more body. For instance, “Walk of Life” comes off far less “carnival-like” and I think that makes it a much better song. Ricker gives the album a warmer, more mature feel, with the half-speed mastering trading some brashness and edginess for greater true transient detail and a more burnished overall presentation.

. Dire Straits' biggest-selling album-in fact, one of the biggest-selling albums world-wide of all time-Brothers In Arms helped musically define a decade. This superb album spent the grand total of 203 weeks in the UK charts and a respectable 55 weeks in the US charts (where it sold 7 million copies alone).

"Brothers In Arms" was pretty much the success story of the 80's and was primarily fuelled by a slate of huge hit singles like the classic "Money For Nothing" (No.1 US, No.4 UK '85), "Walk Of Life" (No.2 UK '86, No.7 US '85) and "So Far Away" (No.19 US '86, No.20 UK '85). "Money For Nothing," the song that helped immortalize the phrase “I want my MTV,” hit #1 and won the Grammy® for Best Rock Performance.

Today, Brothers In Arms remains a rock essential - and now is offered as a completely uncompressed two-disc vinyl album for the ultimate in fidelity!

The instruments are sharper and the whole soundstage is much more full than the studio pressing. It also seems as if there is more music. I do not remember the extended lead in for the first song on side two ("Walk Of Life") as well as the trailing notes for the last song on side 3 ("Ride Across The River"). I'm not a big fan of bloated bass, and even though the bass is considerably more full than the studio pressing, it was also more musical.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dire Straits Brothers in Arms SACD Multi-Channel
Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2023
Verified Purchase
I've always wanted to purchase this album in SACD Multi-channel format but was put off by the cost. I was finally able to purchase this at a reasonable cost and I couldn't be more happy. I did agree with the many reviewers who stated that this album being side one heavy with the songs on side two being slow and boring on the red-book CD. This SCAD disc changed my opinion on these side two songs due to the nuance of Mark Knopler's vocals and instrumental quality that the SACD brings out. Although side one is still better, at least you'll be less likely to turn off side two now in my humble opinion in SACD

Very pleased with this purchase and the jewel case didn't arrive damaged due to Amazon's shoddy packaging.
