The Police Collection

On this first day in this new year, I thought I would share firsts - from first album collections to first songs that became instant favorites. 

In this post, I will feature The Police.

The Police albums are my first rock music collection - two from the original members and one as a greatest hits from The Police & Sting combined.

My collection began after hearing "Walking On the Moon."  This song is by far my most favorite by The Police for its lyrics alone - easy to follow, low-key instrumental, and relaxing in tone.

And then there was "Driven to Tears."  When I first heard this song, I realized that The Police has a distinctive sound - catchy instrumental and vocal despite repetitive chorus lyrics. 

When I later heard "When The World Is Running Down," I was officially hooked.

The Police - Sting, Andy Summers, Stewart Copeland

The Police - Vocals/Bass Guitar, Guitar, Drums

The Police - Defining sound.  Classic lyrics.  Legacy in British rock music.

The Police - My first rock music collection.  My first favorite rock band.
