About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Adding a new rhythm guitarist, Dire Straits expands its sounds and ambitions on the sprawling Love Over Gold. In a sense, the album is their prog rock effort, containing only five songs, including the 14-minute opener "Telegraph Road." Since Mark Knopfler is a skilled, tasteful guitarist, he can sustain interest even throughout the languid stretches, but the long, atmospheric, instrumental passages aren't as effective as the group's tight blues-rock, leaving Love Over Gold only a fitfully engaging listen. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

August 12, 2009: This album finds Dire Straits treading new territory with regard to musical direction. Tracks like "Telegraph Road" attempt to paint a large canvas detailing an individual's place in the vast lanscape of life. "Private investigations" lends itself to a dark and forboding atmospheric soiree into the unknown. A delightful album sure to delight any musical fan.
