Stewart Copeland, Incredible


While enjoying Reggatta de Blanc recently the drumming really caught my attention. I would say that Copeland's percussion is the highlight of the album. He plays the drums on his high-hat better then most and never fails to add just the right amount of flair to what could be considered pretty simplistic melodies.
I used to own a green copy of his mini album which was released under the name Klark Kent. A great drummer for sure.

Agreed, Copeland is a great drummer. Murder by Numbers was not on my North American Vinyl, I had to buy it on a 45.

Strange coincedence...Im currently returning to the Police as well...what an amazing group...they had a unique combination of pop sensibilites and progressive innovation...with Copeland being a key componet...for what it is worth...the 03 remasters are extremely well done...very lively with punchy bass...also have Police on wax and that sounds very good as well...cant go wrong my friends! Fave track"Bed is too big"...enjoy
the main reason why i got into the police: stewart's drumming. saw them in concert a year or 2 ago (the
concert collectively was forgettable, except for stewart's
awesome work).
Check out Stewart's work with the group Animal Logic...both CDs. Stanley Clarke plays bass.
