A fascinating insight into his world, Henry recalls


How, newly arrived in London, he met Stewart Copeland and jammed with him at his squat in Mayfair

The fateful day that together, dressed in leather drainpipes and dark glasses, they “put on a show and adopted the pose of dangerous rockers” to impress Sting who had just arrived from Newcastle in his dungarees with baby Joe in a travel cot

Stories of the early days touring with The Police in Europe and at the legendary Mont-de-Marsan punk festival

How he came to be on probation at Clerkenwell police station and was given special dispensation to turn up late to sign the register on the day The Police were recording their first single, Fall Out

And how, after the arrival of Andy Summers, Sting had to break the news to Henry that they wanted to carry on as a three-piece without him.

The fortnight spent at Miles Copeland’s chateau in the Perigord where Cher eventually let her hair down and divulged the story of her “first time”… :shock: :shock: :shock:

Performing “Next to You” alongside The Police in front of 80,000 people at the Stade de France, where he is given a dressing room in the anti doping control room

Should be a good read.

Oh, to be a fly-on-the-wall at some of Miles' shindigs.... :shock:
