Did you know that neither Sting nor Andy Summers or Stewart Copeland had anything to do with the crazily named albums The Police came out with in the late 70's and early 80's? Its true. They had no input over the names Regatta De Blanc, Zenyatta Mondatta or Outlandos D'Amour. It was Miles Copeland, Stewart's brother, and band manager who had creative control of the album names. Do you recognize the name Henry Padovani? He was the fourth member in the 'original' lineup but left before they hit it big or released Outlandos D'Amour. The Police also performed under the names Strontium 90 and The Elevators in those early early days in the mid 70's.
Here is the current lineup we all know and love with 'Walking on the Moon', a song Johnny got his best friend's cool-o daughter hooked on when she was 5.
