@@stephenclay2763 This is really interesting. I think Andy is just a lot more avante garde then youd expect from a guitar player in a band that has had such huge mainstream success. I believe a small minority of people seem to react negatively to his playing because they are just not used to something like this and most of the musicians and fans absolutely adore it because of the exact same reason. Ive fallen into the police rabbit whole maybe 3 weeks ago and he instantly became a huge inspiration for me because of his unusual style and top tier musicianship.
I had to play this through my good speakers to realize what a great bass player Sting had become by this time. Andy talks about this in the Rick Beato interview. Love the Hey Joe riff at the end.
@@mochammadmarsha4238 I'm sure they were all into it. Sting has covered three or four Hendrix songs, Andy jammed with Hendrix, and Stewart's favorite drummer is Mitch Mitchell.
they had the stove on HIGH & BROIL w/ this LIVE version. cooking up some serious funk; this is how u take a great track and make it... groovier w/ REAL instruments, a lost art on pop radio now: 0 drums or basslines or lead guitars... a shame: there was a time bands combined instruments w/ keyboards, but not anymore; this is the video u show those who don't know any better what REAL Rock & Funk is all about
Mindblowing and exciting live version of that iconic track and Andy's solo, wtf! Holy crap! Time for another Police reunion, guys, c'mon you can do it! The world is running down, we need to make the best of what's still around!!
These THREE are just so great! What Humor. What effortless STYLE. What musicianship! Bass, guitar AND drums, bringing the Reeedonculous Groovy Thunder. No band like this on the Horizon today - Man were we lucky as young people in the 70's, 80's and even 90's. Didn't know it then, but every time I turn on radio or TV today - I sure know it now.
How does Stewart never play the same thing twice and yet keeps the beat going so well?????? And Andy’s solo is mind blowing!!!!! And Sting is, well, Sting!!!!! His voice is quite simply completely unique and beautifully in tune. Ladies and gentlemen...The Police!
Are you kidding me?? Stewart never plays the same thing exactly as before because he has to keep up with the quality of declining vocals. And Sting? In tune? Have you not heard this song sung in the 1980's? It kicked ass in that era. Sometimes things are best laid to rest. Get the album out instead.
It is an OMG remake of a great track, stretching the groove, opening space 4 Andy 2 Rip & Riff, STING's bassline 2 have added Pop & Power in tandem w/ Stewart's driving Drum & Cymbal work: the song lends itself 2 that type of improvisation; great that they "re-recoded it LIVE: and, given how the world always is, the Lyrics resonate in Timeless fashion: It's subject 2 debate, but I think it's the best track they ever recorded
Sting Wore That Bass Out, Andy Committed Murder On That Guitar & Stewart Was Just Plain Abusive On Them Drums! Those Fuckers R Outstanding, True Legends & Fuckin' Great Musicians! LOVE THE POLICE!!!
These guys are great ! All of them ! Yeah, Sting is not in his twenties anymore, and maybe can't sing it the way he did in the early eighties. So what ? His bass playing is extraordinary, Andy's guitar solo is impeccable, and Stuart Copeland is nothing less than magnificent. Have a little respect.
This is how u expand a song, and give it Extra Groove w/ a lead guitar fueling the funk; it's a stunning revision of the Studio track; young artists, particularly in pop music, have no clue or ambition to make music w/ a real instrument approach; it's all 2 programmed & homogenized now, versus the "Prog" rock / funk/ New Wave bands that could COMBINE keyboards & Synthesizers w/ the instruments ; when's the last time u heard a Top 40 type song on the radio w/ REAL drums; or basslines ?
I don't think there's any setting, any genre in which Andy Summers would feel out of place. Take a moment and listen to what he does, and how he does it without extravagant gestures and practiced grimaces. All over that guit-fiddle.
What a great version. My fave Police tune just got an upgrade. Andy's solo took me on a journey that compared to typical solos from other players, is unique and mysterious.
This is one of the best bands to ever set foot on stage. Underrated as fuck during their time. However, their music will be played by musicians forever.
I saw the Police reunion tour in Atlantic City in 2008 and I remember thinking....., this band never sounded this good in its earlier incarnation. They got so much better with age....,
and it wasn't 'Fallout' either: saw them in 79, 80 and 81 - all 3x's he let loose was on 'Fallout' ... that tunage doesn't really allow for Andy's affinity for exotic phrasings and modes but this one is prime cut and just waiting to be tore up!!! bravo, Sir Andrew ... bravo! 🤌🏒🚨🏒🤌
Played much faster than the album version... still it is a 2/2 metrum/ meter - like a march, you know :) one-two .. quite unusual in pop..even reggae but works so great here To me the best Police number by far

He played like that all the time - but the spotlight was rarely on Andy. One of the rock-jazz guitar greats
How to ruin a great song! Awful catawalling self indulgent ear screeching solo!
@@paulcavanagh1294Uh, no.
@paulcavanagh1294 really? YOU ARE DEAF OR JUST A TWAT.

@@RegularDude00well said. His jazz influenced style makes the solo more interesting for me.
Magnificent solo by Andy Summers! Wow!

the Hey Joe caught me by surprise

I dont even know what to say about this band anymore. Sting is like the perfect bass player. Incredible technique, tone and sense of musicality.
Always have loved Copeland’s snare sound.
He’s the greatest living drummer
He is the BEST part of the band!!!!!
Best backbeat in the business. Is the trad grip the secret?
Holy crap Ive never seen Andy Summers play like that.
I recall Stewart Copeland saying they had to keep a tight reign on the time allowed for Andy's solos cause he'd go on for hours if they'd let him😄
Andy is a special player.
These 3- come on?!!!!
Andy Summers is very underrated!
Master of flanger 🙌
Andy Summers is such an underrated guitarist.
Yes, but that one is one of the worst solo ever head! :D
@@ludovicomassa4506 I fully disagree. I thought it was syncopated, completely unique, and easily identifiable as being Andy Summers.
@@ludovicomassa4506
Typical Summers solo, i.e. completely different than any other guitarist, brilliant.
Awesome solo
who ever said he is underrated except you?
The CRACK of that snare can be heard from the Moon, through the vacuum of space!

It's an early 1950s Fender Precision bass and it certainly has some miles on it!
For sure! Wish it's volume was dialed up a still, there's no doubt Sting was spankin' the plank big time!
The drumming is so excellent is this live setup too! Stewart Copeland a God among drummers!!
god, not God. There is only ONE God.
@@JimBobsonJones007Not to nitpick, but the comment was A god, not THE God.
@@mairimsulaiman8230 thou shalt not have false gods. not to nit pick.
It’s a shame your faith is so weak that you make a comment about a musician being called a god.

Incredible chemistry between 3 very talented musicians
And all three are having fun and appreciating each other's talent. Oh well. It was great while it lasted.

That song right there made Cream look like just an ordinary trio.

@@chelle3524 you are insane and need to be placed on a 72-hour psych hold pending further examination just for making that comment.
Stunning Summers!! They are masters of their craft when they perform live, what musicians they are.

Proper Fucking Amazing.❤❤❤❤
When Your Favorite Band of all time sounds exactly like they did in 1983.Thats total bliss
Sting Wore That Bass Out, Andy Committed Murder On That Guitar & Stewart Was Just Plain Abusive On Them Drums! Those Fuckers R Outstanding, True Legends & Fuckin' Great Musicians! LOVE THE POLICE!!!
Sting on that bass, amaaaaazing!
My favorite. Glad I could be part of their VIP CREW DURING THAT TOUR.
The iconic Stewart Copeland FLAM!
0:01 Stewart' s snare blahhh !!! ever !!!
copeland you are the best drummer!!!!! genius!!!!
no disrespect but danny carrey says wassup
Just want to remind everyone that there are only *THREE* members of this band. Three. Making all that sound. Unbelievable.
Yes, theyre up there with Hendrix, Cream, Rush and co as a powerful 3 piece. Brilliant musicians these guys.
Unbelievable ain't it Mate.
Best in 3s of all time.................................
It’s 2022 and this is still one of the most bad assed live tunes I’ve ever seen.
Andy's guitar work is so underrated! Just love this video. All 3 together are magic.
Jeez that guitar solo!!! (Well bass & drums too but!!! :-) Oh my!!
He is a worldwide acclaimed Guitarist so shut your" underrated" bullshit off
His playing defines the dreamy POLICE sound.
These guys are great ! All of them ! Yeah, Sting is not in his twenties anymore, and maybe can't sing it the way he did in the early eighties. So what ? His bass playing is extraordinary, Andy's guitar solo is impeccable, and Stuart Copeland is nothing less than magnificent. Have a little respect.
His vocals have faired a lot better than many his age.

Love this version. Andy Summer’s playing on their recordings is so understated - great to see what he can do live. Amazing playing by all three.
Magnificent performance, wow wow wow
DAMN! What a fucking great band......The drummer is on fire....All of them are the best
And that's why The Police is one of best band in the world.
The Police picked up where The Cream left off. What a great rocker, superb musicianship!
hmmmmm.... i got to digest that for a bit....but i think you may be right...
Andy blew me away with that solo
hes 65/66 here.
El mejor trío, gran sonido, fiato y capacidad de improvisación, grande Coppeland, Summers y Sting no me canso de escucharlos ahora en el 2022
I don't think there's any setting, any genre in which Andy Summers would feel out of place. Take a moment and listen to what he does, and how he does it without extravagant gestures and practiced grimaces. All over that guit-fiddle.
Still listening to this jam, Oct 2020. I will love to get a live version!
Showcase by Summers. All of this is tight and pro. Incredible musicianship. Then again what were you expecting, it's the Police.
Sting is a very good bass guitar player!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Andy got off and sting just rip that bass, i think its still smoking
Wow just Wow!
Great performance - all 3 are great musicians - liked the speeded up Hendrix "Hey Joe" riff at the end of the solos
Great performance
The Best Version EVER! Sting FINALLY Lets Loose!
Tremendous jam by all three musicians.
What a great version. My fave Police tune just got an upgrade. Andy's solo took me on a journey that compared to typical solos from other players, is unique and mysterious.
what's the problem? this version are more smoothy/jazzy groove...
That's the stuff right there...
Sting's playing underneath the solo is also great, love the groove
World class musicians
It's cosmic jazz-reggae rock
Damn! Sting has got chops on the bass!!!
And he sings lead at the same time!
Best ever concert live from the Police❤😊
He kills the lead here❤
I love this performance!
Wow. Just wow !
Tribute to Hendrix at 3:34
Hey Joeeee !!
Stunning performance.
So glad I saw this tour as it's the last one they'll ever do
I love this its sooo good!!!!
I saw sting in concert.a while back.good show.
And always just ahead of the beat.
This is one of the best bands to ever set foot on stage. Underrated as fuck during their time. However, their music will be played by musicians forever.
THE POLICE.
CLASSIC FOREVER.
I saw the Police reunion tour in Atlantic City in 2008 and I remember thinking....., this band never sounded this good in its earlier incarnation. They got so much better with age....,
Es una de las canciones que mas me gustan en vivo con The Police, despues que tocaron en vivo en tour '82
Andy's thumbs up to the crowd at the end is way cool... " I humbly accept your recognition that you just heard a bad ass solo..."
im here nov 28 2021.. loving it
Making the best of what’s still around 😎
Even though Sting is improvising the vocals since some of them high notes are hard, I love his improvisation.
Wait, they finally let him have a long guitar solo?
and
it
wasn't 'Fallout' either: saw them in 79, 80 and 81 - all 3x's he let loose was on 'Fallout' ...
that tunage doesn't really allow for Andy's affinity for exotic phrasings and modes but this one is prime cut and just waiting to be tore up!!!
bravo, Sir Andrew ... bravo!
🤌🏒🚨🏒🤌
Thank you Stewart for pounding us into the Unseen Musical Spiritual Realm with your perfectly timed snare drum strikes !!!!!!!!! Let go Brandon !!
dipslit
In my opinion sting has improved a lot his bass playing technically. Compared with his early Police days
I am sure he has improved but he always laid down challenging bass parts and practiced incessantly to pull them off.
Sting is like the perfect bass player here. I admire that he never stopped practicing.
Man these guys seem eternal yeah maybe they are not what they were but they bring it love hearing those tunes. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
My fave guitarist, Sting showing his class (whether you can stand it or not), and amazing drums as always from Stewie
Perfection 💯
Sting bass guitar thumps. Andy lead guitar shreds. and Stewart snare drum pounds as they transport us into the Eternally Existing Unseen Realm !!!!!
Favorite Version 👍♥️😆
Excelente solo de summers, Sting y stewart, muy buenos musicos
Got me through dark moments. Thank You.
Pure Joy!
Andy Simmons burning a hole straight through the sun on this one woohoo!
Yo estuve en ese tour cuando tocaron en River, puedo morir tranquilo, los disfruté enormemente
Absolutely stunning!!! So much powerful than the one they recorded originally!!!
amazing version - love it!
I don’t. Sting isn’t singing the melody. Really annoying actually.
Andy and his guitar did that.
I saw them live 2x in 1981. I am underrated.
Its pretty obvious that they spent the last 20 years prior to the reunion concert following Phish around.
Thanks for posting this
Phenominal drumming
I think he broke a stick at one point during the concert. Bravo 👏
When copelland plays the drum
the best thing is to see how well it does🎵
Wow.
THE UNSTOPPABLE TRIO !
AWESOME The Police! IMMENSI!!!!!!!🤩🤩🤩
BLISTERING PERFORMANCE
Ahead of their time, best trio ever !!!
Their first two albums were brilliant... totally lost interest in them after that. But no one can deny they were a great live band. A "real" band.
I'm glad I found this. Quality
All 3 needed, all 3 Great together.
The Tokyo concert is so much better than the RIO dvd
Played much faster than the album version... still it is a 2/2 metrum/ meter - like a march, you know :)
one-two ..
quite unusual in pop..even reggae
but works so great here
To me the best Police number by far
This probably goes without saying. But this is a most impressive band!
Today's pop music is such garbage. This is how it's done. 100% talent ..no filler.
Notice how Sting won't let Andy get his solo highlight? In Jazz that's a no no, Andy had to be a saint to play with these guys,
