The Police tabs.
Classic Stuff Sting played the bass and flowed his lyrics. The Police were one of the best rock trios period. Andy Summers filled tracks up with his playing. Sometimes it sounded like two lead guitars. Let's not forget my man Stewart Copeland. I have never enjoyed listening to drummers much before him. This guy had some sick fills. One of my favorites was on Driven To Tears at the break at the end of the song. Listen to it and you will hear for yourself. My only regret is not seeing them perform live. .
The Police Great Music
it's just balanced in the right way, fast songs and slow. I love this album or CD. Yet overall it's ROCK and it rocks. It's one for any music lovers collection.
Great Collection
He wanted all the songs he knows and loves and this CD collection has that. Great collection of Police songs! I bought for my boyfriend's birthday and he loves it. Very satified with purchase and Amazon!.
A MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE........ THE POLICE AND THE MEDIA
Back in the 80's, The Police were given such a loving pat on the head by critics. Police fans should be dismissed as lunatics or at the very least avoided. I could only come to one conclusion. As with new wave, the mainstream were hoping the Police's brand of inoffensive music would put a more acceptable image on punk rock. The reality was their gutless music was generally just a cut above soft rock and lyrically they were irrelevant compared to many REAL punk bands.
Lo and behold the masses ate it up and went a step further putting a phony like Sting on a pedestal, as a spokesperson for indigenous populations of South America.
If commercially intended wimpy soft rock is your thing, then any Police CD will go well with your boring middle class friends, cheap beer and colored sweaters. Get a life!
p. s Their is now a cure for insomnia. . . . . . . any of Sting's solo CD's.
Great collection
It just makes you realize how good these guys are. All the hits in one album. Some people prefer the songs in their original album context, but in these days of music pick n' mix, it really doesn't matter. What you're getting is the best of the Police at a great price - can't argue with that! .
