Music in Britain
Great British Bands of the Past
The Police
The Police were one of the most successful bands in the history of British pop music.
There were three members in the band:
Stewart Copeland (drums), Andy Summers (guitar) and Sting (real name — Gordon Sumner). Sting was working as a teacher when he started playing with the band.
The band started playing in 1977 in London’s Roxy Club and then went on tour across Holland and the USA. Their first record ‘Roxanne’ was not a success initially, but in 1979 they had four successful records in the UK. Their first big success was ‘Can’t Stand Losing You’ (1979).
Their LPs*, ‘Regatta de Blanc’, ‘Zenyatta Mondatta’, ‘Ghost in the Machine’ and ‘Synchronicity’ (1983) were all enormous successes.
The band’s last record was ‘Synchronicity’. The most famous member of the band is Sting, who has made many records alone, including ‘The Dream of the Blue Turtles’ (1985) and ‘Mercury Falling’ (1996). He has also appeared in several films, including ‘Quadrophenia’, ‘Dune’, ‘The Bride’, ‘Plenty’ and ‘Grotesque’.
