Album Notes & Community Reviews
Driven by the colossal success of 'Don't Stand So Close to Me', The Police polished their signature reggae-rock fusion into an incredibly tight, globally successful pop-rock formula. 'Zenyatt脿 Mondatta' is a highly rhythmic, wonderfully melodic, and playful album that balances Sting's increasingly sophisticated songwriting with deeply energetic, tropical-tinged new wave arrangements.
