Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits stick to the blueprint when they make a record these days: Like the multi-platinum 1985 effort "Brothers in Arms," "On Every Street" has a few "Money for Nothing"-type chuckle-along novelty songs, including the first single, "Calling Elvis." It has the usual portions of blues, country confession and, on the wry "The Bug" (chorus: "Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug"), pop psychology.
