i totally agree with you here Jerome...
Love Over Gold would definately be in the top5 albums i own...the lyrics are perfection,the music sublime,the production(to my amateur ears) is spot on, and the album cover artwork would be my #1 choice if someone asked me to name my favourite album cover....
Making Movies comes a close second in my choice of Dire Straits albums followed then by Brothers In Arms...your latest trick and the title track from that one are as good as any song ever recorded IMHO.
Knopfler is often overlooked as a great writer and guitarist in those 'best of' lists that come out ocasionally, i could listen to his playing all day every day and not get bored,
then we get his intrumentals...his soundtracks for "cal" and "local hero" are masterpieces IMO, and as you know im not a fan of instrumentals overall!!!!!!
Have you heard 'Sailing to Philadelphia' with James Taylor?
