Old school band “The Police” reunites and brings us a greatist hits album “The Police”. This is a two disc album so plenty of greatist hits from them to enjoy. The album is going to be released on tehe 11th of June. Again this is another Saw release so should expect great sound quality from them anyway this would be a great album for those Police fans out there!

In early 2007, reports surfaced that the trio would reunite for a tour to mark their 30th anniversary, over 20 years since their ‘final’ split in summer 1986. The concerts would coincide with Universal Music (current owners of the A&M label) re-releasing some material from the band’s back catalog. The following statement was released on behalf of the band by a spokesperson at Interscope Geffen A&M Records and posted on Sting’s official website: “As the 30th anniversary of the first Police single approaches, discussions have been underway as to how this will be commemorated. While we can confirm
that there will indeed be something special done to mark the occasion, the depth of the band’s involvement still remains undetermined.”

On January 22nd, 2007, the punk wave magazine Side-Line broke the story that The Police would reunite for the Grammys, adding that the song performed would be “Roxanne”. All this information appeared to be correct. Side-Line also announced in its news coverage that The Police were to embark on a massive tour bringing them to cities all over the world. Billboard magazine later on confirmed the rumours, quoting Andy Summers who had discussed earlier in 2006 how the band could have continued post-Synchronicity: “The more rational approach would have been, ‘OK, Sting, go make a solo record, and let’s get back together in two or three years,’ ” he said. “I’m certain we could have done that. Of course we could have. We were definitely not in a creative dry space. We could have easily carried on, and we could probably still
be there. That wasn’t to be our fate. It went in another way. I regret we never paid it off with a last tour.”

Inside sources have admitted that the group had in fact begun tour rehearsals in Vancouver, British Columbia, and
that further details on the reunion tour would be announced in February, including a performance at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards on February 11, 2007. A local radio station, Rock101, reported this information to the general public on January 24, 2007. There have been numerous sightings of the group and their entourage in the Vancouver area as expectation builds of a pending reunion tour.

he Police opened the 49th Annual Grammy Awards on 11 February 2007 in Los Angeles, California, announcing “We are The Police and we’re back!” before launching into “Roxanne.” A&M Records, the band’s record company, is promoting the current 2007-2008 reunion tour as the 30th anniversary of the release of their first single and not indeed that of the band’s creation. ABC reported, “This year marks the 30th anniversary of the release of ‘Roxanne,’ the single that broke the Police in the United States.” The single was released in April 1978.

The Police opened their Reunion Tour in Vancouver on May 28 in front of 22,000 delighted fans at one of two nearly
sold-out concerts. Opening with “Message in a Bottle” Sting, and bandmates Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers
served up two hours of blockbuster hits much to the excitement of all who attended. The Police will be on tour for approximately a year, beginning with North America and eventually crossing over to Europe.
