i had a chat with our erstwhile friend craig b. about what the heck is happening with the now fabled 'new old' releases which never saw the light of day when they could sold like hotcakes at the police tour merch tables last year. i was informed that the police's contract with universal reverted back to sting or something like that in the last year which effectively put a stopper on anything vintage being released without sting's approval - which he evidently isn't interested in giving. what happened to 'around the world' on dvd? my understanding is that sting has zero interest in having more (vintage) police material released and he has complete control of that side of his catalogue, aside from the greatest hits which the company can rerelease and repackage until the end of [/quote]

Interesting. It seems that Gordo is very interested in money, so why he wouldn't release the old stuff boggles my mind.

Hello again.

I, for one, am gutted Craig's proposed stuff isn't looking likely as it would have been a highlight of the Reunion - not that Certifiable isn't great and all that, but it would have been brilliant to hear the bits that were recorded "back in the day".

Here's hoping for a change of heart from Sting then .....
