Just one person's opinion of course, but the best three-man band of all time.
They’re up there, but I have Rush and ELP up there as well. They all have one thing in common as well, they all have bass playing singers and that, in my opinion, is the toughest gig to do in a band, Geddy is imo the best at it in terms of the complexity of some of his playing and the fact he’s also a beast on keyboards as well.
Cream, Rush, ELP
They are definitely one of the best 3 person bands along with Cream, Nirvana, and early Muse.
I absolutely agree👍
Definitely 👍
Stewart: I'm just having my lunch
Sting: Don't slow down bro
Probably the only time Sting told Stew not to slow down. :) Great performance. Great energy. Great drumming
Super drummer
Sometimes, souls connect. Thats when magic happens. This is magic. You cant replicate this with all the money in the world. No machine can do this.
Love this! #1976 baby
69th like. Nice.
Ironic considering these guys hated each other, but goddamn could they jam.
Stewart Copeland eating and playing at the same time like a boss!
Yeah! He´s the fucking Master xd!
@@kidrock609 - And it's WATERMELON ! :-O Been popping up around me a lot over the past couple of days!
Playing drums like Stewart Copeland does must burn a shitload of calories. Gotta feed the beat.
That's why police disbanded. But this video many times helps me get through my life. Thanks
The brilliance of Stewart at the time is not just his amazing chops. The drum sounds of the 70s were heavily muffled and snares were de-tuned. It was called a "wet" sound. Listen to Heart of Glass by Blondie or many other disco tunes. Stuart took all the muffles off the toms to let them ring. He did the same with the snare and tightened the heads to almost breaking. This is why many of us still hold him in a hall of fame like status.
Whenever I forget how great Stewart Copeland was I stumble upon a Police video and he kicks my ass for the umpteenth time. You know, just to remind me.
OMG! Its rough around the edges, a bit raw, a bit chaotic but absolutely brilliant. The youthful unrefined energy. No random lute music here! Ace!
Well put!
I think their slight punk edge kept them grounded and anchored. Unlike alot of proggy bands that get lost in the stratosphere
Nice and raw...no backing tracks, computers, or tape machines. Real live music.
Not that youthful.
@@zootsoot2006 Only Andy was a seasoned vet. Stewie and Stingo were green 20's.
0:33 Reggae Music Style
0:50 Classic Rock
2:05 Psychedelic Rock 3:35
My favourites genres on one
0:48 his facial expression hahaha
The WTF is that note look?🤣🤣🤣👍🎸🥃
I wish i could be in that crowd....The Police hits you like a truck, they put so much emotion on stage...the perfect band.... thanks to our time we can relive something so unique .
100% pure magic...and not a single camera phone in sight!
well, the year certainly had a lot to do with that
@@dennisjhodges seriously like it’s pretty funny when people say “not a phone in sight” when a particular show was before cell phones were a thing
Ummm…..they hadn’t been widely introduced yet, ding dong.
This is my favorite Police period (the first three albums). The last two albums when they became a supergroup lacked the raw power of their earlier work. This tune is a perfect example.
Having been on a Police kick recently watching as many (earlier) live performances as I can find and some interviews; I think the reason they were unstoppable was because there were all S tier musicians but also weren’t hamstrung by trying to “play the record”. I just saw a drum interview with Stewart where he said something like “when you’re on stage playing live, fuck it do whatever you want”.
You can really see that in these mid-late 70’s live recordings. I mean shit, Stewart is literally eating watermelon while playing in the last few minutes
@@TheWingus Exactly - however Sting got all serious and wanted regimental discipline and was trying to dictate every note. When he presented new songs he already had all the beats laid out for Stewart to learn! Takes some balls to believe you can tame Stewart.
They only made 3 good albums.
Although sting achieved massive success as a solo star his legacy for which he will always be remembered is for his work with The Police
Love how they seamlessly transition into 'Reggatta de Blanc' and back
Playing the drums like Stewart does, he *needs* the calories!
What a sound! Only 3 men! And the best!!
Weren't they truly magical. These early recordings are now gold dust!
I love The Police since I was ten!! For me the best rock band ever! They are the best! I love them!
I love how they mix in Regatta de Blanc in the middle of the song
Stewart Copeland and Dave Grohl are the only two drummers I know that absolutely electrify the performance beyond what any other drummer could. There are other great drummers (Peart, Beaufort, Weckl, Colaiuta, etc.) but this guy is amazing in intensity and how he makes the entire band better. The Police would not have been nearly as good with any other drummer.
Magnum Muscle Bonham?
Dave Grohl is minor league.
David Grohl is not in the same planet as Stewart Copeland. You clearly are not a musician
Peart should be included....not tryin to instigate but that is a solid statement
@@raminrouchi9938 absolutely brother !
I actually met Great legend guitar 🎸 man Andy Summers at a small movie 🍿 theater Back in L.A.,CA.(West L.A.)back in 2014-2015 .He was I believe promoting & documenting his Can't Stop losing You"movie (documentary of his music life in The Police"yrs .&after the show Met him&he signed my CD disc of Outlandous d' Amour"(1978)& took a photo with him then I left pretty cool 👍🤔😎🤑,Now I live in Texas my only memory of the police &Andy Summers &still have my ticket stub from that day& evening.All hail to the police &Rock'N Roll hall of Famers too!⚔️✈️⚔️🧣🧤🚬🇦🇺🥃🥂🍻🍺🙏👍🤗🤠🏆🎹🎻📽️🎫🎬🎛️🏆
0:47 Andy expression lol tuning on stage like a master
The best rock band ever
Great to see this again. Saw these guys in early 80s - absolutely incredible. What a sound for a 3 piece band.
OMG! They were really kicking the stage!!! Outstanding performance 🔝
Almost every band or artist eventually loses their edge, energy and urgency. This was the Police at their best.
you don't think the audiences might have anything to do with that?
@@kellycollier9246 Why would the audience factor into a band losing their edge?.
THE SKILL LEVEL OF COPELAND IN THIS VIDEO IS UNMATCHABLE...JUST LOVE GETTING TO SEE IT UP CLOSE...
Stewart playing and eating watermelon at the same time...the best!
all you hater's the police at there prime was one of the best group on the planet damn shame that they are growing older
Myself personally playing in a police tribute band as a drummer and idolizing copeland i have graduated to appreciating Stings bass and singing at the same time. Us drummers are following the beat and this guy is laying it down , singing at at the same time, far more syncopated then us drummers....sorry
Also, he's playing a fretless bass.. which is tricky enough in itself.. lol
I both envy you and fear having to live up to those songs. I used to think bass was, BY FAR, the easiest instrument in a band. In reality, you have to compliment and enhance the beat and what the drummer is trying to do. Without a good foundation, a song will fail. On top of that, you need to compliment or add to the melody of the song. The bass guitar is so very complicated. It's a rabbit hole.
Stewart was on fire!
Andy was inspired!
And Sting was hired!
👏🏻🎸😎
Posiblemente uno de los mejores percusionistas del mundo
Love this tune it's my favourite.
What a amazing drummer!!
Drum nerd detail alert: Stewart Copeland in matched grip at 2:25! Switch to his usual (modified) traditional grip at 2:35.
i just noticed that too wonder why he did that
I think he lost his left stick
i never understood why they didnt do harmonies on the chorus live. it kinda makes the song imo
Guess Andy and Stewart just couldn't hit the high notes that sting does on the record.
Los amo..THE POLICE...PERÚ🇵🇪
0:48 gold! hahahaha
Serious energy
What band really achieved the same success? for the past 40 years. Like took the bull by the horns, and road it like a BOSS! Blowing minds for 40+ years, with hits from the past. Super achievers.................... GODS GREATEST!!
Amazing, you can actually hear Summers's and Copeland's backing vocals. In most of the recordings I've seen, the backing vocals of Summers and Copeland are just way too quiet, to the point that you can barely hear them in some cases.
De grands moments à passer dans ma jeunesse grâce à leur musique géniale ! thanks for sharing 😉
STINGs vox is clear & crisp no rasp!! Amazing
Frenetic pace amazing
Aww the space sounds by Andy...
Se você voltou aqui 6 anos depois e leu este comentário, não, você não está sozinho vendo essa maravilha.
Opa , eu tô aqui , Rio de Janeiro, Sulacap Zico e Sting, police!! Cheio de flangerrrrrrr na guitarrra
0:47 lol
And they even sound better live 3 great musicians one or if not the best bands of their era,sting was a great bass player as well as a singer songwriter , Stewart Copeland drumming on a different level and Andy summer a great guitarist a combination of these elements made them the great band they were
Loved that child jumping at 00:20
Very good drummer..
So much more powerful than anything they were able to replicate during their reunion tour which was never likely to come even close to their early performances from 79-84.
JÖHN GRAY I thought exactly the same thing. They were just younger, and Copeland was in his prime. Their early were the most unique thing I’ve ever seen.
One of the best Police videos ever because they paid attention to Stewart.
Why is almost every comment here about Stewart Copeland's fantastic drumming?
Sting & Andy brought great stuff to the band too but Copeland was the spark plug.
Because you have a ton of drummers and thats about just that ...drummers and not drummers/musicians. Talented drummers can look past Copeland and see the other two guys and get it. The rest of these ppl posting are basically fanboys of him and that's it. That's the difference
wow! powerful performance, master skills, weww-wee!
❤best concert im the Netherlands 🇳🇱
The first chords reminded me of 'Till I Collapse by Eminem. Both songs are awesome in my opinion.
"Lose yourself" by Eminem
'I Got You' by Split Enz has a similar intro also.
A qualidade do som é incrível
WHAT A DRUMMER .....BEAT THAT IF YOU CAN
ESPECIALLY WHISLT EATING A MELON LOL !
There’s only one Stewart Copeland
The Police as I will always remember them.
2:00 SO INSANE MR COPELAND!!!!!!
🥁🥁🥁🥁🔥🔥🔥
At last...a proper live version of Regratta de blanc...thanks for posting.
Minha música favorita 🥰👏
2/23/22 MY LOVE FOR THIS SONG BROUGHT ME HERE!!!
I loved when the Police loved playing together! They could have been the greatest band of all time if they got past their egos.
Melhor versão dessa música
6:46 epic scene! Stuart Copeland crazy man
6:10 amazing fills on the infamous octabans with a mouthful of melon.
is a sandia
@@speedyaraujo766 they call sandias "melons" in english
@@alamcho Sandía is Watermelon. The regular melón is a melon and they have different varieties such as Cantaloupe or Honeydew.
Stewart Copeland is my favourite person on the planet . Absolutely brilliant
One of THE GREATS
They have an awesome sound. 2024
I WANT BACK TO THE 80's
Música de verdade
Melodic jazz punk trio
Copeland, muestra todo no guarda nada, increíble.
The best.. 🌟
Along with ‘The Jam’, best of British music!
Stewart is a beast
Stewart Copeland was the soul of the band
LOVE THIS SONG HERE BRASIL 🇧🇷😎👌 📻 🎶 🎼
This is music!!
Copeland is a goddamn animal Brilliant!
The perfect storm..........Cha
Meanwhile, Eminem: "Lose Yourself"
Exactly what I thought!!
Wow , just F N WOW
Shockingly good
Holy Fuck.. watch this performance then go and listen to Wrapped around your finger, those guys where the Raw and the Cooked. THE REAL FUCKING DEAL!
Amazing!
So much about this video is comedy gold
Brilliant
Stewart ate watermelon to stay hydrated it’s fairly obvious why. He’s an OG BOSS FROM PLANET PERCUSSION!
Or to just stay 'high'? Maybe the slices were dunked in coke, just like the pineapple bits Sting was eating during the 1982 Gateshead show!? x-))
@@mightyV444 Personally, I prefer cocaine soaked Kiwis, not pineapples.
@@johnbender49 - Good for you! x-))
Copeland on fire here
0:47..yeah..!!
Copelands a fuckin beast!
Classic
Sequence at 2.40s. May the force be with you!
El maestro Stewart Copeland rompiendola en la bateria y comiendo su sandia ... o si lo quieres en Ingles su WATERMELON jejejejeje
Holy fuck that was amazing
Sterward Copeland , tremendo, grande , maestro.
5:56 Stewart comiendo Sandia y tocando al mismo tiempo, me mata cuando la revolea
Es increíble, magnífico
At 5:56....Stu was eating a slice of watermelon 🤣
Lo mejor
