HMV Review

Brothers in Arms brought the atmospheric, jazz-rock inclinations of Love Over Gold into a pop setting, resulting in a surprise international best-seller. Of course, the success of Brothers in Arms was helped considerably by the clever computer-animated video for Money for Nothing, a sardonic attack on MTV. But what kept the record selling was Mark Knopfler's increased sense of pop songcraft -- Money for Nothing had an indelible guitar riff, Walk of Life is a catchy up-tempo boogie variation on Sultans of Swing, and the melodies of the bluesy So Far Away and the down-tempo, Everly Brothers-style Why Worry were wistful and lovely. Dire Straits had never been so concise or pop-oriented, and it wore well on them. Though they couldn't maintain that consistency through the rest of the album -- only the jazzy Your Latest Trick and the flinty Ride Across the River make an impact -- Brothers in Arms remains one of their most focused and accomplished albums, and in its succinct pop sense, it's distinctive within their catalog. [In 2005 Mercury released a 20th anniversary limited edition version of Brothers in Arms in the Hybrid/SACD format.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

全米No.1となった②、軽快なﾎﾟｯﾌﾟﾅﾝﾊﾞｰの③、ｻｯｸｽの音色が印象的な④、ゆったりと流れゆく時の中で、悲しみに暮れる者の傷を癒す⑤、ﾏｰｸ･ﾉｯﾌﾟﾗｰのｷﾞﾀｰが叙情的に響き渡る⑨など聴き所。傑作。ただ、この時代はﾋﾞｯｸﾞｾｰﾙｽ続出のある意味異常な時代ではあった。

昔②が売れてMTVでよく観ましたが、シングルだと確か３～４分だったと思うけどアルバムだと８分もあるんですね。どこを短くしたかは判らないけど今聴いても不思議にあまり違和感は感じない。MTVをうまく利用してセレブになったStingが参加してるのも面白い。全体のトーンも非常に明るく聴き易く売れたのも頷ける。歌詞の戦争に関する部分はフォークランド紛争へのステートメントなんでしょうか。再結成してフェスとかに来ると嬉しいですが・・・。

「愛のトリック」一曲の為だけに買いましたが、前半のヒットパレード＋後半の渋さ、緩さでお腹一杯楽しめます。これは彼らの頂点に相応しい傑作です。
