When i saw Andy Summers read from his book "One train later" in 2006 he said that the song had a huge synth track and they told him to make his guitar part "his own". I always thought Andy wrote his guitar part while recording the song & the guitar part we all know was not part of the original demo. This talks about the recording of the song. http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/mar04/articles/classictracks.htm Ive never heard the demo but would love to hear it too!

Curious as the guitar riff is certainly what one of the things that separates it from your average song. ~r. -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ Police mailing list Police@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/police
