“An excellent read.” — St. Petersburg Times “An often hilarious, always candid and astutely observed memoir chronicling a life observed, largely, from the vantage point of a drum throne.” — Buffalo News Rock legend Stewart Copeland, drummer for seminal pop trio The Police, shares his stories from before, during, and after his days with Sting and Andy Summers, in one of the most popular and influential bands of the eighties. Strange Things Happen indeed.
Stewart Copeland’s Police Diaries based on and including diaries kept between 1976 and 1979 combines scans of original diary pages with new commentary explaining who was who, what was what, and why. They’re illustrated with classic and previously unseen photos from the ‘starving years’ of one of the world’s biggest bands.The 500-copy Signature edition includes the book plus a CD of previously unreleased recordings of songs made by Stewart in his home studio in 1977 and 1978 – some of which later turned into Police hits – plus a large reprint of a classic Outlandos D’amour poster.
