Dire Straits - Communique

The performances on Dire Straits' Communique are so smooth and effortless, they were originally criticised for replicating the blueprints of the band's breakout debut. Time, however, has a way of changing perspectives and exposing the truth. Long after its original release in June 1979, Communique rightfully takes its place as the group's most underrated record – a nine-track set spiked with engaging storytelling, relaxed vibes, and deceiving simplicity.
