Ross - Without having seen or heard a second of it, but based on the set list, I would agree with Mikkel that it is from Unplugged. In fact, a giveaway is on the cover - the shot of Sting with the standup bass...which he whipped out during that show.
I can not figure out why MTV and VH1 does not sell these old shows. I would buy many of them, including this one.
Also...was out on youtube yesterday...and found that someone put up a 20-year highlight reel of the Brit Awards.
I went looking for it because at the 1985 Brit Awards show, according to the folklore of our band, they "reunited" for the 1st time in about a year and a half to pick up an "Outstanding Contribution to Music" award...or something to that affect.
While there is no actual "moving" footage from the show, there is a picture of them:
Check it out:
Best,
Rich

Subject: Re: [Police] anyone know what this is
It is mostly a poor copy of the Unplugged show - really crappy sound.
I own it, but I don't recall if there is anything else on it. I bought it a) because it was cheap, and b) because the track list mentioned a song that I had never heard of before. It turned out to be some instrumental which, as far as I can tell, has nothing whatsoever to do with Sting!

And the gentlest breath on my face
But a galloping line of white horses
Said that soon we were in for a race"
