A great album, I remember it well.
My favorite Police album was the next one from 1981, "Ghost In The Machine." That was The Police at their peak. Did not like "Synchronicity" at all even though it was their best selling (and last) album.

Agree on “Synchronicity” but it was the only Police concert I attended; would love to seen earlier ones.

This is the audio of a February 1984 rehearsal for the Synchronicity tour. Sting doesn’t really sing -it is basically an instrumental run-thru.
Sting is very strong on bass, Copeland essentially is a nuclear punk clock on drums, Andy finally gets some respect.
Anyone who was put off by Sting’s vox or ever doubted the Police’s musicianship and/or brutal punk-like attitude needs to hear this audio.
Absolutely bitchin’.
