The Police - Roxanne (Hatfield Polytechnic 1979)

[@strangerphantom9680]

This is the best version of the song!!

[@quinnlax976]

Absolutely agree. Fourth time buying this album. Oldest, 6 year old, wants a drum set. Absolutely.

[@matthewherman5980]

I’m inclined to agree

[@ruibessa7883]

The rock and roll hall of Fame is my favorite version

[@jaymeadors7370]

Saw Sting on the 15th in Houston. Still brings it 100% Great singer and song writer!

[@agentsmith4478]

Most amazing version of this song.. love the extended portion

[@snookahana4272]

I was here in this tiny place and worked, helped catering to the bands. 17 years old....I have many stories good times.

[@mholdr]

damn fine version.....great vocals by the Stingmeister...

[@cmc6112]

A complete wanker. Copeland and Summers heart of that band.

[@awwaller]

@@cmc6112 …two’s company, three’s a crowd ; however despite his arrogance, I doubt they would have had the same success without a singer with such a distinctive voice, song writing ability and the shear drive to succeed. He was talismanic. And he played the bass quite well.

[@lloydhentley7639]

2/20/22 MY LOVE FOR THIS SONG BROUGHT ME HERE TODAY!!!

[@tommytong2854]

Same. I had to take a trap break to get my live, stings fix. It’s amazing! I could sample about 50 tracks from this for the bros.. 👍🏿… but I won’t touch it! This is too pristine!!

[@AlobytesOgniddove]

amazing vocal energy!!!

[@Roonlovesfish3874]

3:48-3:58 sounds so pretty! Thanks for the upload! Police all the way!

[@frankalfar]

Ladies and gentlemen Mr.Stewart Copeland!!!!!!! This is what live is kids!!!!!

[@javierdiazsantana]

Dig this with headphones and a bass boost, sounds beautiful c:

[@ANDROIDEK1975]

najlepsze wykonanie tego utworu w JEGO wykonaniu

[@LordoftheJimmy]

JESUS CHRIST! THAT WAS AMAZING!!!

[@johngray9434]

LordoftheJimmy Confirmed! Smokin hot!

[@macjam9090]

amazing drumming. Great version great band.

[@emileedavis4263]

Woah I've been waiting for a good live one of my favorite police song. Yessirrrrr.

[@Spookje09]

Copeland is the reason I bought a Tama Imperialstar as my first proper kit back in the early 80s at 13 years old from my first job washing dishes in a restaurant.

[@eduxvi_]

the best album ever

[@erikwouwenaar5964]

The Police was the best part of my life

[@1populist]

The Police are professional musicians.

[@yacobz]

Definitely. Only weak point is maybe the guitarist. Decent rhythm, but poor lead.

[@josehermosilla4425]

La mejor versión en vivo , genial

[@peterhopqk]

Stewart with the iconic legendary short shorts LOL

[@roxana6889s]

Love it!

[@JackDRIPPPER]

Rooooooooooxana

[@right-hand1388]

Roxana Mirshahi ooh lucky girl 😁

[@johngray9434]

I take it your dad was a fan!!?

[@nicolavignati128]

One of the greatest song from Police, once of the most exciting group of pop music ever.

[@soccablau9203]

dont ever say pop music ever again

[@porkchoptc]

socca blau He is technically right. Pop music used to mean whatever was popular at the time, so anything from Bob Dylan to Metallica have been pop music. It wasn't until the early to mid 90s that the term pop music was actually used as a name for a genre.

[@fuckamericanidiot]

@@soccablau9203 Ofc it's pop music. Pop/rock, pop, rock, whatever. They had catchy choruses, massive success, conventional song structures.

[@artysanmobile]

I worked with The Police twice in 1979. They were largely unknown, having a single song on the radio, of course this one. Note the recording engineer hasn’t a clue Andy is singing an essential harmony. By 1980, they were a global phenomenon. It was a dizzying pace.

[@chriskennard5920]

Good recovery Mr Summers...after that seventh chord at 0.55 instead of the minor chord it should have been - totally forgiven, what a fantastic performance!

[@awwaller]

…hope you also forgave Sting for his wavering voice around 4:02.

[@NicoleKrawczyk]

2:08 // Sting: Right, Stu... //Stewart: Nope...I'm gonna do this yet a while longer :D

[@tanakaafricahomedecor4202]

It great to hear it as he work shopped it to become the classic it is today!

[@lennongreen1]

¡Fantástico! ...saludos

[@MattTheLizard]

I have been trying to identify this version. I have an old cassette I recorded off the radio, I thought it was a bootleg. Thanks!

[@MsThissell]

Flew across the country in 2007 to watch a reunion tour show and they didn't play Roxanne. Awesome show, a chilling "Wrapped Around Your Finger," but not Roxanne!

[@ferdinandwang1165]

It was Andy's suggestion that the band be a trio. One great decision.

[@ivanbarria1714]

walking after school to the house. Headphones at full volume.¡¡¡

[@Jordy12493]

great song , greetings from Perú

[@banning75able]

[@edwinjamespope8118]

did you realise at the time the genius in front of you?

[@suszy5712]

Where is this concert? God, 1979! Love it ❤

[@goanna2012]

and i loved it ....

[@SouthwayMexicanOfficial]

Blazed out ,Mind at ease!!!!

[@josemiguelhermosilla1357]

Sin duda la mejor versión en new York

[@ahmadjunaedi3962]

Yg namanya Band dari UK/ Inggeris Band The Police inilah Band Pertama yg gw suka ( kalo gak salah sejak gw kelas 6 SD/1 SMP, setelah itu baru gw suka The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Queen, Oasis, Blur, dll. Kalo Dangdut sih gak usah ditanya ya Gaes, ya pasti doyan juga doong, Wong gw OI / Orang Indonesia Aseli...! Pokonya kalo gw Plesir ke Inggeris jadi Turis, Insya Allah gw Pasti Beli CD original The Police, The Beatles dan The Rolling Stones plus Jersey MU warna merah era 98 David Beckham number 7 Gaes...! Aaameeen...!

[@glens4918]

Classic

[@kevinsavo718]

Man he could hit high notes back then

[@yacobz]

Where's the chorus tho?

[@MarilynMansonIsBetterThanRap]

its my song! yay!

[@vagabond1776]

I’m hopping with the crowd in 2023!😃

[@Jmos101]

different crowds back then. ha i kinda wish i could time machine to the 80's or 70's to see what its like. being in the 90's and not remember the 90's sucks ha

[@quinabarrancochacon7867]

❤

[@FactbasedReality0421]

Is that a fretless bass? Show-off!

[@bassistdc]

Yep a fretless p bass. Sting played mostly fretless basses on early Police songs. He played upright bass in jazz bands before the Police.

[@Loennebergah]

Zero dislikes....

[@djzen07]

Los putos AMOSSSS!!!!

[@Semiam1]

Those beautiful chords from Andy. Those chords are Roxanne.

[@sash7551]

Stings voice is so prestige !!

[@Afroguitarman]

Man 2:05 - 2:35 How do you do it Stu?

[@right-hand1388]

Afroguitarman we dont know ! :)

[@courtneygillespie1187]

This song is better live 😌

[@josemiguelhermosilla1357]

Que épova Perrin solo police

[@waltermejia3134]

AT 2:07.... Does Sting Say FACEBOOK? ITs supposed to be 1979!

[@waltermejia3134]

True! I did mishear that.

[@Ruvigy]

Walter Mejia That's some Illuminati shit going on right there.

[@dav3dude211]

Walter Mejia he saying right step

[@samvanaelst4985]

Walter Mejia He's saying: play it Stu!

[@sergiorodriguez8631]

Rigth stuff

[@right-hand1388]

4:02 what do you do sting ? :-D

[@nathanb5579]

Wish they did the chorus like the record

[@yacobz]

Right? The chorus is literally the Turkey of the Thanksgiving dinner.

[@fuckamericanidiot]

@@yacobz As in everybody wants it but nobody really likes it? xd Not the best analogy

[@roof-metall-band]

Добро пожаловать на шоу Стюрда Купленда.

[@adamacote]

I have this on a bootleg tape somewhere...

[@GolfTesla]

Interesting guitar variations (snd some minor glitches) as compared to the record version

[@youiti2nz]

6-3〜dunedunedunedunedune

[@gullyfoyle-uf6fr]

I think I have those same socks and shorts that Copeland is wearing....not sure what that says about me...

[@miscovers]

0:56 jajajaj se equivocaron, hasta los grandes se equivocan, son los mejores

[@ivanbarria1714]

Stud to Sting: "it get lost just a little confusing for the fucking bass playing element ..."

[@alecolacino5207]

Does anybody know where and when this great Police concert was recorded?

[@Roonlovesfish3874]

Rock goes to college, Hatfield Polytechnique, 1979.

[@AllisterCaine]

​@@Roonlovesfish3874blows my mind how good the recording is. Such quality is rare these days... Well besides how amazing the band was. A small location... And it was free iirc.

[@ricklopez2314]

Y does the guitar stop around 1:00

[@jacquesbouchard3191]

33274ee42r

[@redskin133]

mistake i guess

[@jamesstewart8377]

Fuck he had some pipes didn’t he

[@odaydrums]

they were trying to figure out what they played. Not Bad GOOD

[@LudwolfBeethozart1485]

5:12-5:19 I love this part

[@marklecona329]

Is this song considered reggae?

[@Vaisin]

Reggae rock and new wave (early new wave)

[@Roonlovesfish3874]

Reggae-ish.

[@johngray9434]

Sounds so much better when Sting isn't trying to tell Stewart how to play the drums!

[@indiegente16]

el coro "you don't have to put on the red light" no es como en el cd ! no lo grita !! csmr esa parte le da energia !!!

[@timothywolfe3891]

Stewart Copeland was the anti-Neil Peart drummer, but he was also a bad-ass.

[@kachunski]

but that could be right too. i mean, maybe he meant to do that on purpose.

[@jamalb599]

Larry Bird on drums

[@ramshaar2597]

Happy fretless days now he is more rif basist no solos les improvise 😐

[@MrKillerpanda123]

By horrible I mean very quiet...until the end part..

[@samsonwilkinson8090]

Sounds a bit rough to me...

[@fuckamericanidiot]

Sounds live

[@OlaOOp]

I wish i could live in it too so i'd do many infringements in order to be punish by The Policemen. ^^

[@bumphillips1042]

At least Stewart uses the proper grip. A sure sign of formal training.

[@bassistdc]

I noticed that. I see few drummers using the traditional grip.

[@miscovers]

0.55 se equivoco el guitarrista XD jajajja hasta a los grandes les sucede

[@isaiahcrvz]

stew lookin like larry bird lmao

[@MrKillerpanda123]

Wow...what a horrible crowd...then again this was in the 70's...

[@merlingortizgonzalez3420]

Aquí los que venimos de Tik Tok…

[@morriseysaul6757]

la improvisacion no pasa nada con police enfria la musica

[@svizzerotbm4790]

Voce stratosferica di sting , inimitabile
