Album

Message in a Box: The Complete Recordings is a four-CD box set by the Police, containing all five of their studio albums in chronological order, as well as non-album singles, non-album B-sides, and tracks from various compilation albums and the Brimstone & Treacle soundtrack 1982. The box set also comes with a 68-page booklet. The box set states that it 'contains every single song the Police ever released' but these are not the complete recordings, due to the box set excluding ten officially. Посмотреть сведения об участниках альбома, рецензии, композиции и приобрести альбом 1993 Box Set от Message In A Box The Complete Recordings на then there are those - like the Police's 'Message In A Box' - which sell themselves as 'The Complete Recordings'. Claims like that are asking for trouble, especially when they appear alongside an official discography that lists at least one track a live version of 'Don't Stand So Close To Me' which is conspicuous by its absence. On those singles, and around a dozen album cuts - from the punk-fuelled raunch of 'Next To You' through the Brit-funk of 'Demolition Man' to the airy philosophical concepts of the 'Synchronicity' album - the Police sound like one of Britain's great rock bands. Despite their legendary status, the Police only released five albums during their brief reign from 1978-1983. In addition, the trio had amassed a healthy amount of both studio and live B-sides, plus songs that only appeared on soundtracks. For the 1993 four-CD box set Message in a Box: The Complete Recordings, every single song the Police ever recorded is included. These are NOT the complete recordings. What is missing, you might ask 1 The US version has the original 1986 version of Don't Stand So Close to Me, while the European one has the dance remix b-side of the original single. If you decide to only buy this, and make it your Police album collection, you won't be doing yourself a disservice. It's a good choice, and a good sound. Too bad it isn't perfect. Released in 1993 this is almost 'The Complete Recordings', but not quite. Don't Stand So Close To Me Live which was the b-side to the 'Don't Stand So Close To Me '86' single. Don't Stand So Close To Me '86 Dance Mix' which was a bonus track on the 'Don. The Police. Group Compilation. Songs in album The Police - Message In A Box: The Complete Recordings 1993.
