Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms
Dire Straits' fifth album Brothers In Arms was the group's breakout-effort. Although they had already enjoyed some critical success in previous years, it wasn't until hit single "Money for Nothing" dropped that Dire Straits began to make their Mark. (pun intended) The video for "Money for Nothing" would become one of the most played in MTV history, and the record was crowned as the U.K.'s best-selling album of 1985.

Sister Rosetta Tharpe - Live in 1960 (white vinyl)
One of the most essential reissues of 2017, Sister Rosetta Tharpe's Live in 1960 is the perfect introduction to early rock gospel recordings. Regarded as the first great gospel music recording artist, Sister Rosetta Tharpe's footprint in history is bigger than a crater. Many artists, such as heavy hitters Johnny Cash and Aretha Franklin, cited Sister Rosetta as a direct influence on their careers.
