Dire Straits are another first time nominee. This group has a well regarded album and a few hits, and guitarist Mark Knopfler is very respected as a musician. He also has a dinosaur named after him.

These guys sang Money for Nothing and Sultans of Swing, but does Atlas sing along?

I love Money for Nothing, and generally their other songs are decent. FB

There earlier stuff including some of their epic long pieces like Telegraph Road and Once Upon a Time in the West are amazing.

Good band musically, but I dislike how 'Money for Nothing' uses an anti-gay slur three times.
