DIRE STRAITS

New live album compilation from Dire Straits in a limited edition 12LP box set. The box set features:

Newly remastered versions of Alchemy and On the Night, titles presently out of stock on vinyl. It should be noted that Alchemy was last pressed in the mid-80s, while On the Night was last available in its original 1993 release.

Moreover, it presents the full performance of "Portobello Belle," a segment of which appeared on the 1998 Money for Nothing compilation, in addition to previously unreleased tracks from the performance - "Industrial Disease" and "Twisting by the Pool."

An expanded edition of On the Night, revealing previously unreleased tracks performed during the tour, sourced from multi-track recordings from shows in Nimes, Rotterdam, and Paris, featuring songs like "Tunnel of Love," "Telegraph Road," "Sultans of Swing," "Two Young Lovers," "When It Comes to You," and "I Think I Love You Too Much."
