Introducing Dire Straits
All the late night bargains have been struckBetween the satin beaus and their bellesPrehistoric garbage trucksHave the city to themselvesYear Two, Season Four. It's time to take side step from the heavier stuff and get into the colours and shapes that Mark Knopfler and the rest of Dire Straits bring to the musical landscape. Five albums in seven years and then a six year gap until their final record saw Dire Straits release some of the most iconic songs of the 80s. Is there a riff that defines that decade more than Money For Nothing? Is there a more instantly recognizeable keyboard intro than Walk of Life? Maybe a little 1984 synth intro from a band Corey knows well, but besides that, probably not! Will Kev go under a 5 on the Haskin Scale for any song in this catalogue? Will Corey's ear bend to the finger-picking style of the band's unlikely headband-sporting frontman? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and get your chicks for free.Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashTwitter: https://twitter.com/UCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDon't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theultimatecatalogueclashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/mz9ymTwSSEKo-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclashSHOP OUR MERCH STORE!!!
