Description

My brother first got me this on VHS format, Christmas 1985, it was looking a little tired after nearly 20 years of play so I bought this DVD almost as soon as I could. This DVD covers the first post Police tour that Sting undertook after the acrimonious break up of the rock giant and follows the new band through rehearsals at a French stately home to their first concert performance.The assembled musicians are outstanding, Omar Hakim on the drums, Kenny Kirkland on piano, Branford Marsalis on saxophone are the main players, although since that time Darryl Jones has entered the rock hall of famemore… as the Rolling Stones's touring bass player. What impressed me most at the first time of viewing this film was how well Sting held his own with these masterful virtuosos! Obviously, they're playing music that he's written, so he's not going to look like a complete doofus, but at the same time It's obvious that he's done some serious training to reach such a high standard. In the breaks between songs in rehearsal, whenever the band try anything off the cuff, Sting is straight in there with them jamming along.Enjoyable as the concert sequences are, I always found the pre-production segments to be the most enthralling episodes of this DVD, (perhaps that's the frustrated musician in me) so if you're interested in seeing the 'tightening up' and 'getting to know you' phases of a band rehearsing, this DVD is an essential purchase. Great Stuff.
