Kaseta: VG (4), omot: NM (5-), veoma dobar primerak.
1. pressing (od najmanje 7-8), sa kasetom od sive plastike i belom etiketom na kojoj je oznaka prvog tiraža od ćak 20.000 kaseta (I-20000). Postoji još najmanje 4 pressinga koji takođe na etiketama različitih boja nose oznaku I-20000 (klasične PGP brljotine), ali ovaj je definitivno prvi. To znam, jer sam kupio ploču i kasetu neposredno po objavljivanju, negde početkom marta 1980. godine,.Ovaj 1. press do skora nije bio ubačen u Discogs bazui, gde sam ga postavio početkom abgusta 2025, `jedva` 45 godina nakon što saa kasetu kupio. Sada traži novog, a tek drugoig, vlasnika.

Retko koji trenutak u istoriji Rock`n`Rola se može uporediti sa stupanjem izblajhane trojke na muzičku scenu! Iako im ovo nije prvi, već drugi album - ovom pločom su osvojili svet i srcam mnogih ljubitelja muzike. I ta ljubav traje do dan danas, i samo je malo `pomerena` ka lideru benda - Stingu, tj. Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumneru.

THE POLICE su jedan od najboljih rock trija, koji možemo porediti samo sa CREAM, The Jimi Hendrix Experience i MOTORHEAD (sa Fast-Eddy-jem i Animalom), i to se na ovoj ploči itekako čuje. Moja generacija (rođeni 1965/66) je ovu ploču volela do ludila i vrtela je na žurkama, a kasetu u busevima na ekskurzijama. Pesme su se toliko vrtele da su stigli i do sredovečnih građana SFRJ. Dobro se secam kako je moja tetka Biljana, inače profesorka francuskog i engleskog bila sablažnjenja izgovorom reči `Bottle` u najvećem hitu ovog albuma, znate već kojem ;); no ja sam ipak najviše voleo `Walking On The Moon`, pa baš nju i postavljam kao video ilustraciju ovog oglasa.

Iako su THE POLICE došli u žižu u new wave eri, čiji su predatavnici i bili - ono što je napravilo značajnu razliku u odnosu na SVE druge bendove tog žanra - bilo je to što su oni ZNALI da sviraju. I to opasno da sviraju!!! Saund benda se zasnivao na jazzy harmonijama i `čudnim` akordima kojima nas je Andy dovodio do ludila jer nismo mogli da ih skinemo. Stewart je u stvari odličan jazz bubnjar, a o Stingu i ne treba trošiti reči. Kada na to dodamo i malo novotalasne energije i dobar imidž - sve postaje logično, i njihov uspeh je više nego zaslužen. O tome govori i podatak da je PGP odlučio da prvi tiraž ovog albuma u SFRJ (na ploči, a čak i na kaseti) - bude čak 20.000 kopija. A bilo je još 7-8 i kasertnih i vinilnih pressinga...
