Here is where Andy ruled the world... Switching from reggae to rock to classic guitar and back again ... What a guitarist , some times I think its He who made the police sound ... No stewart ! No sting! No all of them ....
ive followed the police since i was around 13/14 circa 1978 like to think i know all of there music dont ever recall hearing this wtf is that all about great song anyway.
@philipatoz. you are so right. Those that knock Sting and the Police don't appreciate the brilliance of their music and musicianship skills. Andy was an accomplished jazz guitarist before he joined the Police which is why his guitar contributions were so brilliant. What other 3 piece could have become the biggest band in the world? The whole Police phenomenon is unlikely to ever be repeated again.
i DID cry at the reunion tour. I was in front hanging onto the railing. Didnt even cry the multiple times I caught Sting in concert but seeing Stewart actually live and playing my fav music that no other drummer could ever capture was.....a river.
This song is one ov my favourite Police song's for the sheer fact it was when i jus started college back in 2003 and i started really appreciating alot ov music and Regatta de blanc was one of my first albums i bought! wot a great album and so much feeling!
This is just a great song! Of the bands that got tagged with the New Wave label, The Police were one of the few that truly had some chops and also whose music wasn't just predictable, four-chord crap. So often, Sting and Stewart are anchoring this great rhythmic canvas, while Andy is overlaying it with these gorgeous textures of glorious soundscapes. Their albums are all considerably different - and not one is bad. Not too many popstars are also great musicians, but The Police definitely were!
@philipatoz I couldn't have said this better - really I couldn't have said it. Sting and the Police are real legends, and you sir, are an eloquent wordsmith.
@philipatoz you give good comment...i agree - there are such subtleties with the police - and there were only 3 of them making all that music. my ultimate favorite group.
tell that to the sound engineer. what ur hearing is HIS mix.
more correctly, there are a minimum of 3 mixes via a '3 way split' from the stage. 1 to the house (audience), another to the monitor guy (so the boys could hear themselves and yet another to the video truck (they have separate control on each channel (instrument/voice).
its a pity that stewart has all that delay effect on his drums which makes the mix very wishy washy...iguess he was trying something new, as they always did with the tunes
Ya, think so .. couldnt even hear the bass for the first part .. i was llookin to see if it had cut out by the expression on thier faces, hard to tell in this one
this is the second vid of bring on the night ive watched where the guitar is out o tune with bass, i thought it was quality of the recording, but damn. i think i prefer the studio version
I think Sting's the one to blame since he's playing a fretless bass and his left hand's obviously not always finding the correct spot! That's something that had bothered me about this whole show already at the time it was broadcast, almost 30 years ago!!
Well, i saw one vid just now where sting was verrrry far off tune, and was using the fretless .. but i dont know what you guys are talking about in this vid, hes in tune with andy here. It's also hard to see but, i dont think hes using his fretless here either
It's a fretless! Back then, Sting had two fretless Fenders with maple(!) fingerboard, this red one and a blonde one which can be seen in the 'Roxanne' video.
Well, i`m pretty sure, this concert was on 18th of october 1980, i was watching it on german tv. Wow, almost 28 years ago, Rockpalastnacht. Can anyone confirm?
I see. Well I heard that he preferred carefully crafted guitar pieces instead in an interview with stewart. And I am actually still looking for the book :)
This video was (already 20 years ago) very usefull when I was learning how to play Bring on the Night on my guitar. I have never heard Andy playing this solo again.

Yes, this is a fretless, as well as the two fenders, he also had an ibanez as seen in message in a bottle vid.
It would be nice to seem him back on fretless. It's impressive he could play fretless and lead vocals at the same time.
