The Police are set to release a 6CD super deluxe edition of their acclaimed 1983 album, Synchronicity. This extensive reissue includes a wealth of previously unheard alternate takes, outtakes, and demos.
As their fifth and final studio album, Synchronicity features hit singles such as “Every Breath You Take,” “Wrapped Around Your Finger,” “King of Pain,” and “Synchronicity II.” The album has sold 15 million copies globally, with 8.5 million in the USA alone.
This reissue project, which took three years to complete, was created with the band’s involvement and endorsement. It includes a 60-page hardcover book with comprehensive new sleeve notes by music journalist Jason Draper, detailing the album’s creation and history. The box set contains:
CD1: The original album, including “Murder By Numbers,” remastered from the original tapes.
CD2: 18 tracks featuring all original 7″ / 12″ B-sides plus 11 exclusive non-album bonus tracks, available on CD for the first time.
CD3 and CD4: Previously unreleased alternate takes of all the Synchronicity songs. CD4 also includes unreleased Police tracks, such as an early version of Andy Summers’ “Goodbye Tomorrow” (later renamed “Someone To Talk To”), a demo of Stewart Copeland’s “I’m Blind” (later “Brothers on Wheels” for the Rumble Fish soundtrack), a first take of “Truth Hits Everybody,” and rare covers of Eddie Cochran’s “Three Steps To Heaven” and Chuck Berry’s “Rock and Roll Music.”
CD5 and CD6: 19 previously unreleased live recordings from the September 10, 1983, concert at the Oakland-Alameda Coliseum, USA.
The 6CD box also includes four art prints. Additional formats include a 2CD set (repeating the first two discs of the super deluxe edition), a 4LP vinyl edition (42 tracks), and a vinyl picture disc with a revised track order.
