There are hits. There are blockbusters. And there are brothers in arms. One of the world’s best-selling albums, it catapulted Mark Knopfler and band to the top and won two Grammy Awards including Best Mix. Brothers In Arms is the kind of epic album few come across in a decade. Always a reference work for audiophiles, MFSL releases the sonic masterpiece in 2013 on hybrid SACD. For this purpose, the PCM recording was reworked in the analog mixer and finally converted to DSD. Brothers in Arms has never sounded as realistic, balanced, dynamic and complex as on this release.
MTV may have contributed to the enormous success of the album, but above all the excellently worked songs and the unforgettable instrument playing of the musicians involved make it a classic. Mark Knopfler’s guitar riffs and Sting’s vocals in Money for Nothing are and remain unmistakable for every music lover. The hybrid SACD, remastered by Shawn R. Britton, is a limited edition with a serial number and a booklet with all lyrics in the mini LP cover.
