"Sting introduced 'Every Breath You Take' by way of a simple demo,
consisting of himself singing over a Hammond organ part that would
subsequently be replaced by Andy Summers's guitar (keyboards were never the
strong suit of this band). The demo had been recorded in a small eight-track
suite at North London's Utopia Studios and, according to Hugh Padgham,
provided a solid delineation of the song in terms of the main riff, the
vocal melody and the already-completed lyrics. "

I always wondered what this demo sounded like and if it still around
somewhere.
noticed this after Ross's post

where in the world did this guy get the cuts in between the tracks? they
sound like all kinds of demos that I've never heard (not that I've heard
too many)...
thanks!
