<p>The Police were a British rock band from London, England. They were active between 1977 and 1984, with a brief reunion in 1986 and again in 2007 to 2008. The band was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2003 as performers.</p>
<p>They played their first ever gig in March 1977 at The Stowaway, Newport, Wales. The classic Police trio debuted on August 18, 1977 at an undisclosed location. Their final public performance was on June 11, 1986 in Atlanta, GA, USA, at the climax of Amnesty International's all-star American tour where they played five songs.</p>

The band's first double disc Greatest Hits, The Police is a collection of hits and fan favourites, including their first single Fall Out and songs from their five studio albums. The UK version includes 2 extra tracks - The Bed's Too Big Without You and Rehumanize Yourself.

The Police (Sting, Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers) topped both charts and radio airwaves in the late seventies and early eighties. With five #1 albums and a succession of top 10 singles, The Police had become one of the world's most famous bands and received six Grammy Awards and two Brits.
