Produced by
Dave Edmunds, the material on
The Booze Brothers was recorded in 1973 after a young guitarist named
Mark Knopfler joined
Brewers Droop. The roots of Knopfler's innovative guitar style, perfected with
Dire Straits, are quite interesting to hear, even if many of the songs themselves aren't quite up to snuff. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
