mostra di piùAfter decades of having an ambivelent stance on this legendary group, I have recently started to go down The Police rabbit hole. Starting with Stewart Copeland's Drumeo video, I began to go back through the band's history and it's few but mighty records. With a career that lasted only 7 years, the five records that they did record have gone down in history as some of the most diverse and influential records of all time.
While I certainly know all the hits, it has only been with this recent dive into their catalouge that I have been able to discover the complexity of their songs - songs that on the surface seem simple - with this huge voice cutting through it all. Now I know that Sting, Andy Summers, and Stewart Copeland were dynamic musicians with plenty of backstage drama that both contributed to their success and likely their abrupt exit from the scene. But what better way to end a career than with your biggest album and tour - then have a single reunion tour that becomes one of the biggest tours of all time!
For the early Gen Xers, this was probably one of your favorite bands - I mean if I was turning 13 in 1978, I would have been all about them - but I was just a little too young to have appreciated them at the time. With the benefit of hindsight and some great content available online, I have just begun to explore and appreciate their music and legacy.
