Dire Straits. Communique ( Embossed ) VG+VG

Dire Straits' second studio album, Communiqué, builds on the raw energy of their debut with refined musicianship and deeper songwriting. Released in 1979, this collection showcases Mark Knopfler's distinctive fingerstyle guitar work across tracks that blend rock, blues, and folk influences. From the introspective "Once Upon a Time in the West" to the infectious "Lady You Bring Me Down," the album demonstrates the band's evolution as both instrumentalists and storytellers. Essential listening for fans of classic rock and guitar-driven music.
