I have all the Tracy Chapman albums apart from her most recent two and she never managed to eclipse her debut in my opinion, it’s a stunner.
Dire Straits I would probably go with Love Over Gold as my favourite, mainly because Private Investigations is my favourite track of theirs. Brothers in Arms is of fours an all time classic, but I much prefer side 2, Walk of Life gets on my nerves and Money For Nothing I played so much when it came out it kind of got done to death - but I do like all of their output, properly Dad rock.
I admit to not owning a single Dire Straits Album, although I do know a few of their songs. Which Album would you suggest as an intro ?Quote:
