On 1982’s Love Over Gold Dire Straits added a new rhythm guitarist, expanding its sounds and ambitions on their sprawling fourth studio album. Despite the fact that Love Over Gold contains only five songs, the powerful effect of these selections makes this Dire Straits’ more underrated record. Building on the ambitious arrangements and more sophisticated story-songs that made up the prior Making Movies, Mark Knopfler audaciously composed «Telegraph Road», a near-15-minute cut that traces society’s technological evolution. Although this kind of subject matter might sound ostensibly dry, Knopfler’s crisp playing and warm raspy voice, combined with Alan Clark’s gorgeous keyboard runs, makes for a sweeping experience.
