My favourite Police track and always has been, given a tremendous cover treatment here by a fabulously talented bunch of committed musicians, thanks for posting & greetings from UK.
LLB, this cover is a lot of fun and entertainment for me. And once again, NAILED!! I’m a drummer and a singer, but I’ve lost some of my vocal range. Smoking and age. :( But I can still sing along with most of it. I go between the lead and harmony parts as I’m cruising around in my truck. Pioneer stereo and two 10” sub-woofers. Hope I don’t go deaf. Anyway, once again, 3 thumbs up!!
+tonedr Greetings from Nebraska. Wow. I have sent links to a buddy in Loo-ville. You guys are very damn good. Kiss your sound engineer, as he pulls it all together! Do you guys do any Atlanta Rythym Section ? Would love to hear your take on them, too. Keep up the great work. !
the best Copeland world disciple that i ever heard and see, really, great drummer, the voice of singer and the feeling of the rest of the band simple incredible, all the tunes of The Police of Lab Band are perfect, super congrats
I think I'm getting the better end of the deal here, I am able to see just how many of my favorite songs are played by watching you and imitating you on guitar! I used to think I knew how this song goes on guitar, turns out I've been playing it so very very wrong all along Lol! Thank you guys for what you do! :)
***** i agree - i don't have big hands and it's a fatiguing song. Andy Summers doesn't appear to be a 'big' guy either and obviously he kills it and Every Breath You Take is the same thing. I have heard him brag about his strong fingers - i believe him! thanks for watching, dale
tonedr Yes sir, Every Breath You Take is a challenge as well. I have pretty long fingers and its still hard. Both of those songs are great exercise for your fingers and hands.
taggr921 we really appreciate you checking this out and would LOVE to see you at the live show this Oct. in Lexington. Details are still being worked out and will have them ASAP. Hope that's even a possibility for you. your friend, dale
What can I say? Another superb demonstration of awesome musicianship. I trust that everyone who hears the music of the LLB appreciates it as much as I do. I hold out remote hope that someday I may be able to participate in some small way. Best to everyone. Bob.
Robert W Parady Hello Bob! your ongoing willingness to check out these videos is very appreciated and Mike and I look forward to the day you make it to Lexington! your friend, dale
Whoa. I think one thing that's so cool about how these videos are done is that the individual proficiencies of the performers really come through. Fantastic work again! (thanks, too for the encouragement!)
Great vocals. Mike you never disappoint and I enjoy seeing not only sing at such a high level but the ability to play so many instruments! I caught your Zoom call from a few months ago. Didn’t hear what you did for a living. Maybe it’s this! Makes sense to me. Love LLB!! Thanks!
Dale, your guitar playing is brilliant. You make a hard song look easy. Arrangement, vocals, mixing and video all top notch! You are a gifted guitarist Dale and sharing the gift is what makes you a class act. Aways appreciative of your work. Looking forward to what you have next!
Scott Hitter hello Scott...thanks for sharing music sir and i really appreciate the kind words - hope all is great with you these days! your friend, dale
Oh My Goodness! Once again, just freaking amazing! I enjoy all of your work you guys. Dale, I love all your Tele's..... they have the "Heavenly Tone to the Bone!" Ralph
Wonderful! My fav song by The Police, and now my fav to hear on TH-cam. And actually, I like to here LLB do it better than The Police. LLB’s drummer is just as good as Stewart Copeland. And Sting is a little too arrogant for me anyway. Thx LLB! P.S. all the musicians and Mike (singer) do a great job on this tune. Not just the drummer. Three thumbs up!!
jst4curiosity thanks so much for being willing to share your time with us and check out the vids - so glad this was something you liked! your friend, dale
One of your stronger critics here- Perfect,But let it run out the extra minute and a half. To all your members past and present- Keep the fires burning.
Great track. Fantastic drumming! Hey BTW - did you all ever cover Don't Look Back by Boston? I think I've seen all your other Boston covers but I can't recall that one. If not, I'd love to see it! Many thanks!
Love that trad-grip smack, Jake! Dale, where do all these guys come from? How can you know so many unbelievable musicians? (Takes one to know one, I guess, ha!) And they call Nashville "Music City"?
+MrTrazzie we sincerely appreciate you giving this a listen and thanks for your kind post - we were very glad Jake agreed to play this project with us!
Hi Dale, another fine performance! Those chords in the verse are a stretch but you make them look easy. My favorite version of this great song was by Sting, solo and fingerpicked on a black Strat at the Secret Policemans Other Ball in the early 80's. Always enjoy your bands playing, very tight. Dave
stringlesswonder hello Dave...it is a stretcher for sure! I'll check that out and isn't it amazing how a good song is a good song almost no matter how it's done. Hope all is good your way, dale.
Howdy again tonedr & LLB - would you please share the drummer's name? I'd like to look for him on some other tracks if available. Thanks in advance and keep up the GREAT work! :-)
True drumming masterclass. Traditional grip gives real authenticity
Thanks so much for checking this out..greatly appreciated!
As a drummer, who doesnt love Stewart Copeland's drums? Excellent effort from your guy here. Cheers.
Thanks so much for checking this out..greatly appreciated!
This drummer is one of the best I've ever heard. He has so much power and can still be so smooth. Good work by all. Thanks a lot.
+kennethrobinson11231 thanks for the kind post...we think so too, he's a Nashville player and dear friend! Thanks for giving this a listen.
My thoughts exactly!
I'm a drummer too, and I've just had a snare-gasm! Awesome drummer, and awesome band.
Yes, the drummer is excellent. Great cover! This band is amazing.
Thanks so much for checking this out..greatly appreciated!
My favourite Police track and always has been, given a tremendous cover treatment here by a fabulously talented bunch of committed musicians, thanks for posting & greetings from UK.

This is the first cover of MIAB where the second guitarist plays the harmony part. It is subtle but makes the song. Fantastic!!
Thanks so much for checking this out..greatly appreciated!
LLB, this cover is a lot of fun and entertainment for me. And once again, NAILED!! I’m a drummer and a singer, but I’ve lost some of my vocal range. Smoking and age.
