If any of you have seen the documentary of The Police that this album comes from, then you know what a killer band The Police were at this time. They were all still friends and hungry for success, as this was recorded at various venues throughout the world just after the release of their second album, Regatta De Blanc.
There are nine tracks on offer here and the band are just smokin’. All Sting compositions apart from Daethwish which was a whole band tune, and Can’t Stand Losing You which was written by Sting and two outside writers. I won’t go through the tracks here as I’m sure you’re all familiar but I will say this: there is no one else like The Police either before or after. I saw them on their first tour and this one, and they were freaking awesome. Side 2 of this release is one of the best live recordings you will hear. On this recording my favourite track is Bring On The Night; such a killer version.
10/10 from The Grooveman.
