On The Beat: The Police by Lawrence Impey
by Lawrence Impey 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

An exhibition of my photographs of The Police will be opening next week, to which you are all invited: In January 1977 Lawrence Impey was the first person to photograph the unknown rock group, The Police and to coincide with the London dates of the band's current world tour, My Life In Art is exhibiting this fascinating collection taken from these very early sessions. "My first photographic encounter with the band was at the Mayfair flat that Stewart Copeland shared with his brother Ian. I'd known Stewart since school days but this was my first meeting with Sting and the original guitarist, Henry Padovani. Stewart wanted a 'tough guys' look, although the only jacket that Sting possessed wasn't entirely suitable. A photo from the session was used on the front cover of the band's first single 'Fall Out'. Later in the year I met the band in Sting's Bayswater basement, this time with new guitarist Andy Summers. There were two sessions, although the first was abandoned due to technical problems. The attached photo is from these sessions. The final meeting was in March 1978 when I shot the band at the Locarno Ballrooms in Bristol, supporting the Californian group 'Spirit'. Here is The Police on the verge of stardom: dynamic, passionate, assured. In a little while photos from Bayswater and Bristol would appear on the back cover of their first million selling album 'Outlandos d'Amour'." The exhibition runs from Wednesday 5th - Sunday 23rd at My Life In Art, 4 Broadway Market, London, E8 4QJ, England. Opening Times: Wed - Fri 11-6, Sat 10-5, Sun 12-4. Readers of this mailing list are invited to the private view on Thursday 6th September, 6:30-8:30pm. For images and information please contact Justin Hammond: justin(a)mylifeinart.com

The Bounty
by Ross Viner 28 Aug '07

28 Aug '07

This is a 1984 film and among my favorites films. It is brilliant. The reason I bring it up is I was surprised to learn Sting was considered for the role of Fletcher Christian, according to imdb.com. fyi. Cheers all, Ross No virus found in this outgoing message.

from stingus: HYPERLINK "http://stingus.net/gui/images/transp.gif" "Thu Aug 23 2007 | FAN DERANGEMENTS We are not absolutely sure whether there will be any copyright issues with this, but nevertheless, we found it a nice news item and the remixes are really good: "The 31st of August will see the release of ReINVESTIGATIONS : The Police Derangements by Jo Publik. ReINVESTIGATIONS is a collection of re-arranged, lobotomised, remixed and deranged tracks that, like Stewart’s own infamous Derangements, were produced using 99% The Police material…plus a smidgen of other things. This 7-song collection includes 2 new tracks that have never been available on HYPERLINK "http://www.myspace.com/jopublik"Jo Publik’s MySpace before. ReINVESTIGATIONS : The Police Derangements by Jo Publik will be made available as a free download on the 31st of August 2007. If you appreciate the tracks please send an e-mail to Lee Ellen Newman at Universal Music (HYPERLINK "mailto:LeeEllen.Newman@umusic.com"LeeEllen.Newman(a)umusic.com) and say so. At the moment they don’t seem to agree, but you never know…" I gotta tell you, I REALLY like what I heard at his myspace. ~r. No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
