    Love the Police and love these live recordings very much! The music is fantastic! I was so excited about these to be released on vinyl, I was so afraid that I won't get a chance to get a copy before they get more and more expencive (they surely will soon) that I've even messaged different RSD stores and sellers before the RSD to set aside a copy for me.😅 Of course they didn't.😅 Still managed to get my copies for a reasonable price. Worth every penny, every nerve and every second I've spent! They look and sound amazing!

      brooo. i probably spent $60 on each of these including the shipping from the UK and it was worth every cent. a slight split on LP2’s top seam, but that’s nothing. great vibrant blue color and a phenomenal sounding press from the band before their peak. simple 5/5!

        Superb album on both content & SQ. Essentially the first album & four more from the 2nd including Message in a Bottle & Waling on the Moon.This one's going to get a lot of play.

          Both POLICE live albums sound amazing. Great packaging. Sounds so much better than the cd from the mid 90s

            Love these albums. Was gutted that the person in the queue in front of me just bought vol 1! I bought Vol 2 and then a quick march to the other record store in town and a 30 minute queue, I was able to nab Vol 1 (leaving them with the problem of an extra vol 2! Fantastic quality, no surface noise, Sting's voice raw and powerful - love it

              Superb live album and fantastic pressing. This was everything I wanted from a live pressing of an early Police show. It captures the band in all it's raw musical brilliance and the thirsty crowd to go along with it. Pressing hits all the right aspects audibly for a live show focusing on the bands music and Sting's vocals and gives us just enough crowd noise to feel we are there but not too much to overbear the album. Do not hesitate to add this to your collection.

                The code isn't working for me. Does anyone have that same problem?

                  Worth every penny, discs are flat and heavy...Glad I got both shows

                    Sounds GREAT!! Super flat discs. Tons of energy. Shows why The Police sold out the rock stage around the world in the early 80’s.
