DIRE STRAITS / COMMUNIQUE - original album on 180 gram vinyl. The performances on Dire Straits' Communique are so smooth and effortless, they were originally criticized for replicating the blueprints of the band's breakout debut. Time, however, has a way of changing perspectives and exposing the truth. Long after it's original release in June 1979, Communique rightfully takes it's place as the group's most underrated record - a nine-track set spiked with engaging storytelling, relaxed vibes, and deceiving simplicity. 180g 45RPM 2LP Reissue 1/4 / 15 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe.
