Hello,
I have a CD version of this album (836 419-2) where everything is correct (seems official) but it is the music of another group which was engraved on it. Have you ever heard of this?
thank you,

Edited 5 years agoDire straits with the Money For Nothing compilation, closed their first decade on a high note, after having conquered the world with Brothers in Arms Album. Money for nothing (MFN) is probably still the best Dire Straits compilation you can buy. Surely, it is not definitive, since the band issued one more studio album (On Every Street - OES) 3 years after MFN was released and two more live albums . Unfortunately the compilations issued after the band's last album "Live at the BBC" in 1995, are not well balanced. They devote disc space mostly on the singles taken from the albums, leaving no space for key album tracks from their albums.
MFN is the best way to discover Dire Straits, for newcomers, because they will have the chance to get a taste of tracks equally served from all albums, (bar OES) while long time fans will get their hands on some unreleased tracks that appear only on MFN, namely the live "Portobello Belle", the "Telegraph road" live remix and the also fantastic studio remixed version of "Where do you think you're going".
Most of the Japanese editions, contain one additional track, as is customary with Japanese editions, "Solid rock", which is a live staple and a wonderful little rocker.
Dire straits has been the vehicle of Mark Knopfler, their guitarist, songwriter, singer and producer. Each album they produced is a wonderful journey. The well balanced productions, the high quality of the lyrics, the superb and unique sound of Knopfler's guitar, the catchy record artwork, all create an extraordinary body of work that has been captivating millions of listeners for over 40 years and represented with great effect in the MFN compilation.
