My first album for The Police was ironically their last. MTV had played their previous songs quite often and I loved “Don’t Stand So Close To Me” and “Every Little Thing She Does is Magic”, but it wasn’t until “Synchronicity II” that I finally decided to actually buy one of their records. I picked up the cassette for ‘Synchronicity’ back in 1983 and later I did pick up their entire collection on CD by buying their box set which had all their albums. The Police were not an ordinary pop rock band. For me, their lyrics were intelligent and not the bubble gum crap that was on the radio. The songs made you think and look deeper into what they were saying. At least they did for me. It was the first time I felt music could be smart. Join me as I walk through the final album of a band that went out on top.

Good review of a great album. I had it on cassette tape. That box set looks awesome and must have set you back some. Interesting how many versions they had out there. I wonder what the rationale was?

Thanks so much. The box set is pretty cool. But too much to listen to at one time. Need to take your time with it.
The rationale is more sales. You will some people to buy multiple copies to get each cover. They do that today with vinyl by issuing different color variations.

You’re welcome. And I should have guessed. It always seems to be about $$.
