This, the bands fifth studio record, was not only the first fully digital release, it was also the first CD to sell in excess of a million copies making it the first ever CD to out-sell its vinyl counterpart. The first track many would hear from the album was when the band performed lead single ‘Money For Nothing’ at Live Aid in 1985 with Sting on backing vocals, who also co-wrote the track with Mark Knopfler.
