Soundbites


Released in 1993 this is almost 'The Complete Recordings', but not quite. A small number of officially released tracks are strangely omitted from this release - for example:

- 'Truth Hits Everybody (Remix)' which appeared on the bonus single included as a limited edition in the UK gatefold release of 'Every Breath You Take'

- 'Don't Stand So Close To Me (Live) which was the b-side to the 'Don't Stand So Close To Me '86' single.

- 'Don't Stand So Close To Me '86 (Dance Mix)' which was a bonus track on the 'Don't Stand So Close To Me '86' 12" single.

Some consider that not all of the tracks released on the 'Brimstone & Treacle' soundtrack being included is another failing, but the three tracks credited to The Police are on this compilation. The remaining tracks were originally credited to Sting (i.e. 'Spread A Little Happiness', 'Only You') so their omission is easily accountable.
