Notes

Amazon.com Reviewer: Brian D. Rubendall from Oakton, VA, July 12, 2002 Middling Live Album "Live at the BBC" is a decent, but not terribly memorable live album from Dire Straits. It contains a mere eight songs, most of them from their debut album, including the early hit "Sultans of Swing." Unfortunately, the recording are not substantially different from the originals and the versions on the studio album are more nuanced and therefore superior. Of the two songs included that are not from their first album, one is an obsurity called "What's the Matter Baby" and the other is an early version of "Tunnel of Love," that wouldn't make its studio debut until the band's third album, "Making Movies." Overall, this one is strictly for diehard fans. _Track 1-7 Recorded live in Concert/22.7.1978 Track 8 Recorded live on The Old Grey Whistle Test/31.1.1981
