Brothers In Arms Signed 24″x36″ Tour Poster

Dire Straits returned to recording at the end of 1984, and began recording tracks at Air Studios in Montserrat for their upcoming fifth studio album to be titled Brothers in Arms with Mark Knopfler and Neil Dorfsman producing. The recording sessions saw further personnel changes. Mandel had returned to session work and the band added a full-time second keyboardist, Guy Fletcher, who had previously worked as a session musician with Roxy Music and on the Cal soundtrack.[20] Guitarist Hal Lindes left the band during the recording sessions and was replaced by New York guitarist Jack Sonni.

Brothers in Arms was the first album recorded entirely digitally due to Knopfler pushing for improved sound quality. Written during Britain’s involvement in the Falklands War of 1982, the album’s title track, “Brothers in Arms”, deals with the senselessness of war.

The album is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the first compact disc (CD) to sell a million copies, and it has been credited with popularizing the CD format. The Guardian ranked the Brothers in Arms CD number 38 in their list of the 50 key events in rock music history. The album featured the full version of the “Money for Nothing” cut, rather than the LP version, and it also includes extended versions of all tracks on the first side of the LP, with the exception of “Walk of Life”.

The 1985–1986 Brothers in Arms world tour which followed the album’s release was phenomenally successful, with over 2.5 million tickets sold.[55] The tour included dates in Europe, Israel, North America, and Australia and New Zealand. The band played 248 shows in over 100 different cities. Saxophonist Chris White joined the band, and the tour began on 25 April 1985 in Split, Croatia (then part of Yugoslavia). While playing a 13-night residency at Wembley Arena in London, the band moved down the road to Wembley Stadium on the afternoon of 13 July 1985, to appear in a Live Aid slot, in which their set included “Money For Nothing” with Sting as guest vocalist.
