The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will induct Dire Straits in April, honoring the legendary band’s incredible musical legacy Rhino will kick off the celebration early with a career spanning boxed set “The Studio Albums 1978-1991.”-Formed in 1977, Dire Straits, led by Mark Knopfler, were one of the iconic groups of the late 20th Century. THE STUDIO ALBUMS 1978 – 1991 brings together all six of the band’s studio albums. - DIRE STRAITS (1978)- COMMUNIQUE (1979)- MAKING MOVIES (1980)- LOVE OVER GOLD (1982)- BROTHERS IN ARMS (1985)- ON EVERY STREET (1991) -All albums have been re-mastered, with all original artwork restored, the six albums are packed in a handsome box set slipcase. Review: Muy buen precio por tan buena música - Excelente producto Review: If you ever owned or currently own the vinyl, these will still be worth it. - This is a difficult review for me to write as I rarely recommend backing up your collection, but this is worth the money. I had all of the Dire Straits LPs except Communique (don't remember what happened to it). Because their music is some of the best I have ever listened to, I have played them many, many times since they were purchased. I also have Brothers in Arms and On Every Street in CD. Brothers in Arms because it has an intro to Your Latest Trick that the LP didn't and On Every Street because it came out on CD before it was made into an LP. So, now comes along some company and says they are going to release all the albums on vinyl....4 years ago. It was a pre-order so long that I actually had another merchant drop my pre-order believing it would never be done. Well, next thing I know, it shows up as a pre-order from Rhino. I went back on the list. Glory be! They said they would be shipping soon. So I waited....and it was worth the wait. When the set arrived, I carefully listened to every one of the LPs to see how close to the original they were. Spot on and better! The sound quality matched the originals and, in some spots was better...and the intro to Your Latest Trick was there. The slip case is decent in construction and the album covers are just like the originals. They are a treasure I will long enjoy. And the price cannot be a factor if you truly love Dire Straits as you will never be able to do this again after they are sold out. So, whether you don't have the albums or CDs that Dire Straits did or you have every one of them, I would still recommend this boxed set for your collection. I look at what vinyl is going for these days and you can't complain about the price of these 8 LPs at all. C'mon, you know you want 'em. Close your eyes, take a deep breath and order them now. Before it says...."Out of stock. We don't know when these will be back."

Refresh your Dire Straits collection
If you've never heard Dire Straits.... how did you manage that? Instant record collection with all their great releases. I love the box sets where you can get them for about $5 each

Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits were a truly great band.
Mark Knopfler is a truly wonderful and largely underrated guitarist who gave Dire Straits an instantly recognizable sound. Like Dylan, though lacking a great singing voice he could, nevertheless, deliver a song with great emotion. This collection is a testament to a rock and roll great and well worth the cost.

Nice affordable package
Excellent and affordable package. Like many budget-priced all-in-one collections (“Original Album Series,” etc.), the discs are packaged in plain cardboard sleeves, but unlike them, thankfully, each comes with an insert reproducing the inner-sleeve art and lyrics from each original album. Just one improvement they could have made there: there is still no credit for David Knopfler on Making Movies even though he played on the album, though he left the band before it was completed. One reviewer thought it was good that Warner opted to include only the original tracks and no bonus tracks which would likely be a lot of inferior early versions and alternate takes. But as all DS fans should be aware, there are four tracks that belong on a “complete” set but are conspicuously omitted here: the “Twisting by the Pool” EP (Twisting by the Pool, Two Young Lovers, If I Had You and Badges, Posters, Stickers, T-Shirts). Really, would it have killed them to append them to the Love Over Gold disc, or put them on their own disc? At least the superior live version of Two Young Lovers is still readily available. I’m giving it five stars but really more like 4½ because of that omission.

Worth buying
I think all of these collections are biased by how big a fan you are. I enjoy Knophfler's solo work more so but this was better than expected. Worth the money. Another thing is I hate MTV and videos and particularly 80's music trends so I was a little tired of some of their music.

A Decade Plus of Classic Rock
Sound quality is very good, and I usually prefer to listen to an album as the artist intended, in context with the other original tracks. If you like Mark Knopfler, you need to have these albums.
