DIRE STRAITS Communique (Gold-Certified second studio album on 180-gram black vinyl LP - Dire Straits' most underrated gem - smooth, effortless, and quietly brilliant. Originally released in June 1979, Communiqué follows on from the massive success of their self-titled debut. While often overshadowed, this record has since been rightfully recognized as a masterclass in understated musicianship, vivid storytelling, and relaxed bluesy grooves. Produced by Barry Beckett and legendaryengineer Jerry Wexler, this 180-gram vinyl reissue offers pristine sound quality, bringing out every nuance of the band's subtle virtuosity. Picture sleeve with original cover artwork, factory sealed).
