Review from Blender magazineSting once claimed he'd have to be "certified insane" to re-form the Police. Several years later, insanity took hold in the form of a sold-out reunion tour of stadiums across the globe. The two-DVD set contains an entire 2007 Buenos Aires concert, featuring almost two hours of hits and choice album cuts that convincingly re-create the taut dynamics and melodic release of the band's 1980's prime. The Police have also revamped a number of their tunes, most notably adding a trancelike middle section to 'Roxanne'. Not everything works - especially the sluggish version of 'Don't Stand So Close To Me' - but at least they aren't cranking out the hits on autopilot. A 50-minute documentary offers surprisingly candid behind-the-scenes footage from the reunion, including awkward initial rehearsals, in which the trio struggles to recapture its chemistry and overcome personality frictions. I's amusing to see Sting and skinsman Stewart Copeland argue over everything from drum beats to headbands, but as the songs gel and the tour begins, the tension gives way to unlikely camaraderie that still manages to generate musical sparks all these years later.
Review from the RepublicanWhether you had casual knowledge of the inner workings of The Police or an insider's view, it was still pretty stunning when the famed trio reunited for a massive 14-month world tour that started in 2007. The band's combustible internal chemistry always had an edge to it, particularly it seems the relationship between bassist/vocalist Sting and drummer Stewart Copeland. How they survived this tour is somewhat of a miracle, but a lot of the tension between the pair appears to still be there, and it's actually part of the fun of watching this extensive tour film/documentary. What's more fun of course is watching the performances and whether they always got along or not doesn't really matter to the rest of us, who can take joy in the tremendous playing on stage and the devastating track list, which includes mega-hits such as 'Roxanne' and 'Every Breath You Take', along with Police staples like 'Synchronicity II', 'Walking on The Moon', 'King of Pain', 'Don't Stand So Close to Me' and many more. This double DVD-double CD package, which was filmed during the band's concert in December 2007 in Buenos Aires, also includes a behind-the-scenes documentary of the tour titled 'Better Than Therapy'. The set is being released in several different formats including the standard version, a Blu-Ray format as well as a full triple vinyl LP, pressed on 180 gram vinyl (with an MP3 file key). In the U.S., the set is available only as an exclusive, sold through Best Buy. (4/5)
We began writing the Southern Rock Opera some years ago. We wanted to examine people's misconceptions of the South, and study some modern-day southern mythology. The band Lynyrd Skynyrd's story seemed like the ultimate vehicle for tying all of these loose ends together into what would hopefully flow like one big story. It also gave us a great excuse for going with a 3 guitar lineup and exploring that musically. It should also be noted that the record was intentionally paced like a movie and was originally planned as a screenplay before it became an album.
