1001 Album Complaints The Story Behind: The Police - Reggatta de Blanc, Ep 232
Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. The Police started as a punk band but quickly pivoted to something completely new and started releasing a parade of hit songs that lasted into the next decade. The team get together and talk about syncopation, reviving songs from old bands, and the inherent aggressiveness of the high hat.
