ALAS, POOR SALMON, STING KNEW HIM WELL

Possibly the worst thing about the Police are their reviews. From the favorable ones you’d gather that this trio is God’s own gift to the discriminating pop music fan, while from the few (but firm) detractors you get the picture of three new wave poseurs manipulatively using reggae and punk elements to serve their own emotionally chilly and ultimately banal music.
