Sting- The Soul Cages 30th Anniversary

The Sting and I...We had already done multiple interviews when he was in The Police and now Sting had just released his third solo album by the time we reconvened to discuss "The Soul Cages" in 1991.

Yet this fact is certain: the 1983 Police album  "Synchronicity" guaranteed it.
