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" and a sardonic attack on MTV. But what kept the record selling was Knopfler's increased sense of pop songcraft-"Money for Nothing" had an indelible guitar riff, "Walk of Life" is a catchy uptempo boogie variation on "Sultans of Swing," and the melodies of the bluesy "So Far Away" and downtempo Everly Brother-style "Why Worry" were wistful and lovely. Dire Straits had never been so concise or pop-oriented, and it wore well on the album. 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-Brother in Arms remains one of the most focused and accomplished albums and, in its succinct pop sense, it is distinctive within their catalog.
