He could give Sting any sound that he asked, and some that he never thought of.

One of their best songs in my opinion and this is such a great version. Whoever found this and posted it has given a gift to the world.

The stars really aligned when these 3 musical geniuses pooled their talent. What a band.

I love how they're ad-libbing in this version. So damn laid back and jazzy. Thanks for sharing.

The Police had so much musical talent. Genius, really.

Amazing... BUT Stewart IS the KEY to the uniqueness and unpredictability of the POLICE...He is BRILLIANT in this recording.

@@ECCENTRICERIC69 Stewart Copeland is central to The Police because he's the one that brought them together. Neither Sting nor Andy Summers, who replaced Henry Padovani on guitar, were as keen on being part of the punk scene as Stewart was but he won them over. Swap Copeland and Heaton and The Police may never have existed.

That drum sound is so lovely. Stewart Copeland's the man.

A stunning find. Can't stop playing bass along with it. For me, the best three-piece ever.

Their incredibly unique sound brings me a sense of pure nostalgia for that time period. They were an amazingly talented band 🥰🎶

Jazzrock in sheep's clothing.Brilliant.

Andy in his element ..... this is super

No-one puts frills on 'the pocket' like Copeland. Just the ultimate groovemeister.

Remo skin tuned so tight he probably scared the band!

Best concert I’ve ever seen MSG early eighties. Wasn’t even a fan until that show. The entire subway ride home the whole car sang and danced.

I like how they stretch out on this. It's like the Police as a slightly jazzy jam band. Some good soloing and jamming.

We need more power trios such as The Police in todays music.

The three of them had just that special magic. Separately, they are all outstanding musicians but together...just wow.

So cool. Stewart is the standout for me. Unmistakable, inimitable cadence, consistency, and artful fills.

540 - meraviglioso video sui THE POLICE - ciao da VALERIO !!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The police, bring on the night, love this song, the police were my favourite band back in the day, and still are.

It's songs like this by the Police that stand the test of time proving just how great this 3 piece bad really was they where so tight and had the stamina for full sets of perfect songs like this, I'm still in awe 38 years later and keep listening to them as others just are not as good even in modern times.

Stu's drums sound so good here. Only his snare sounds like that. I can hear it from anywhere!!!!!

Touches my soul! Omg! I love the Police forever!! 💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️

my all time favourite police song never seen this before what a gem💎

so glad i stumbled upon this... just closed my eyes and listed to how WELL they played off each other. such a shame we didn't get more out of the 3 of them! Andy was the glue for sure!

I tend to fall in love with things that don’t suck ♥️

Just mind blowing, to hear that level of "playing around".

I'm no John Cage 4'33 and what i think we hear is SPACE, between the three musicians. The clarity of Space IS the real music

Je plane dans les airs. Je marche sur l'eau. C'est un truc de fou. Merci pour ce moment partagé!😉🙃😍❤

The Police captured an unique rythem and melody. Swing, swing and Rythem! Amazing!

This version is so much better than the album version imho.

Always leave them asking for more..... adios amigos. What a band they were .👌

What a great life they had back then. Lots of fun times. Sting could still wear that sweater today and still be in fashion

This video sums up everything I love about this band!! Their music was so complex yet simple enough to play different versions of the songs each time and build extensive jam sessions around every live performance. They were just too goddamn good to last forever. Imagine if they stayed around and toured every year like the Dave Matthews Band 🤯

As much as I respect Sting (and the documentary of the same name is a great snapshot of him at his mid 80s apotheosis) I think he only understood much later what Andy and Stewart brought to his compositions. Copeland isn't heistant in describing Sting as a great songwriter but he's being very modest. Those three had such chemistry.

I can not believe I found this! Amen

OMG HOW GOOD !!!!!!!

Thanks for doing this...one of their greatest songs. Miss those days when I was younger and this was all new.

The original is genius and this matches it and more

Watched this documentary on TV when it came out.Sad that Annie Nightingale passed away recently.I remember her interviewing the band during the tour.

I like this much better than the concert version- this is so freewheeling and really shows what a great band they are.

The Police in Japan in the early 1980s. The stuff those guys could get away with! Good tunes and good times! 🤣 #ifyouknowyouknow

Stewart is the 1st to catch one's ears but goddamn as I've been growing older have i REALLY learned to appreciate what a fucking talent Andy Summers is. Along with Stings song writing these 3 are the greatest for me.

Fantastic! I have this recording and always wondered when & where. Many thanks!! Also the tidbit about the solo. Going to see Andy in June!!!

In his autobiography and/or documentary, Andy Summers mentions his frustration with the set list and says he enjoyed rehearsals because there was an opportunity to jam and to explore the musical possibilities. I can’t understand why they didn’t just do this kind of jamming/improving during the show. Who cares about the timing of the lighting design. Not one Police fan gives a -- about fancy lights. Anyway, it was a great listen. Thanks for posting.

Sweet sounds coming from Andy. Such an interesting version.

Ya no tenía muchas esperanzas en el rock and roll a fines de los ´70, hasta que escuché a Police en 1980. Entonces me dije: El rock no ha muerto. Viva el Rock!! Y la sucesión de otras bandas tremendas a lo largo del tiempo lo ha confirmado:Clash, PIxies, U2, Nirvana, Radiohead, etc... . Gracias por tantos años de buena música!

This is the song i started Saturday morning all family danzing, París live versión, wonderfull spot

It’s all of them. It’s like the Beatles. Take any of them out and the sound is gone. God they were fantastic.
