Description
"Alchemy was a double live album originally released in March 1984 with accompanying VHS. It debuted in the UK Top 3, and spent all but one week of its first seven months in the top 40 and went on to spend more than three years in the top 100 ... Featuring the seminal hits Sultans Of Swing and Romeo and Juliet plus unique encore performances of the Ivor Novello Award-winning Going Home from the soundtrack to the film Local Hero. Demonstrating faultless musicianship, this is a true recording of excerpts of one Dire Straits performance, containing no re-recording or overdubs of any kind. The video has been painstakingly restored from the original film"--Distributor website.
