Details: Amazon.ca "This is it: Everything the Police released", boasts the notes in the 66-page booklet are included with this box set. Obsessive fans have already written to rock magazines indignantly pointing out the omission of this or that obscurity but everyone else will find that these four discs include all the Police they'd ever want to own. The first two discs include all of Outlandos d'Amour, Reggatta de Blanc and Zenyatta Mondatta in their original order, interspersed with live rarities and singles B-sides. Discs three and four are more satisfying, including the band's well-crafted studio high points, Ghost in the Machine and Synchronicity, plus more outtakes and live tunes. The set ends with "Don't Stand So Close to Me 86", a dismal remake of the early favourite. By this point, the musicians' egos were running rampant and they were barely speaking. If anyone wonders why the group called it quits so abruptly, this tune makes it clear that the split was smart and timely. --Jim De Rogatis Product description Police ~ Message In A Box-Complete Rec
