I like a few tracks on it, but not too many. Same goes for Sultans of Swing. Like I said, he has an interesting sound but sadly just resorts to lame ballads on a lot of songs. His solo albums are disappointing too (what I've heard of them anyway).
Some Dire Straits songs that I think are pretty good are: Heavy Fuel, Money For Nothing, Sultans of Swing, Calling Elvis, and a few others I can't remember offhand.
