Musical Interlude: Sultans of Swing (1978)

Dire Straits' debut hit, "Sultans of Swing", was originally written and recorded between 1977-78. It was after the band signed their first contract when they re-recorded the track for their self-titled debut album. However, after an initial single release failed to crack the charts, it was reissued in the winter of 1979. The rest is history.
