In 1983 The Police returned from their self-imposed hiatus with 'Synchronicity'. The album made the band superstars. Sadly, it was also the last before Sting left the band in favour of a solo career. Five of the eleven tracks entered the charts, including the Grammy-winning Stalker song 'Every Breath You Take'. Sting insisted that he could work best when pain and turmoil characterised his life - the title 'King of Pain' bears witness to this. Sadly, his poor health also affected the band, so the chapter 'The Police' ended with 'Synchronicity'.

This title is an SHM SACD. This format is the further development of the single-layer SACD and uses a particularly light-transparent plastic (Super High Material). It allows a much better readability of the pit-land structures on the surface than is possible with hybrid SACDs. Universal's SHM SACDs are generally re-digitized to DSD from the albums' master tapes without any changes. SHM SACDs can be played on any SACD player. Please do not use L'Art du Son or alcohol-based cleaning agents. - Please note: All titles are designed by Universal Music as limited edition collector's items for the Japanese market.
