Notes:
The first Sting solo tour is by far my favorite. A great jazzy band, great material (in particular Sting had the great
idea to retrieve old obscure Police material) and a top notch new album to promote. The tour kicked off with three
straight dates at the Ritz that went sold-out within hours. This is the first show and actually the very first Sting
solo tour. This is not sourced from crappy vinyl bootlegs but comes from a low gen recording from RLR collection, highly enjoyable. I liked it very much, hope you will do too. ldb
