Sultans of Swing from the 1st album - Self Titled
Money for Nothing - Brothers in Arms

Dunno about the rest but as they say.... Google is your friend. I think Walk of Life is on the first album too, but it's been a while since I've listened to it. My copy is vinyl.

Walk of Life is from Brothers In Arms--an album I always have greatly enjoyed.

I've got a CD called "Sultans of Swing, The Very Best of Dire Straits" that has some good pieces on it. An interesting one is "Calling Elvis" - does a good job of capturing the "feel" of early, rocking Elvis stuff, except updated of course.

Also several good tunes on "Mark Knopfler Sailing to Philadelphia". James Taylor sings and plays with him in the title song, and Van Morrison shares the performance of "The Last Laugh", which is a good one. "Who's Your Baby Now" , "What it is", and "El Macho" also stand out.
