Sting- The Soul Cages

The Sting and I...We had already done multiple interviews when he was in The Police and now Sting had released three solo albums, including his solo "The Soul Cages", by the time we reconvened in 1991.

The Police- Reggatta de Blanc- Sting, Stewart Copeland, Andy Summers

"Outlandos d'Amour'  has a certain grotesque, naïve charm about it," Sting offers in this interview about the second album by The Police, "but 'Reggatta de Blanc'  is infinitely a better record." Both the critics and the rock audience agreed, garnering two #1 hits in the UK with "Walking on the Moon" and "Message in a Bottle", plus topping the album sales chart there with "Reggatta de Blanc".
