Excellent debut

Review Score: (10/10)
I became a Police fan upon many nights cruising with pals cranking their greatest hits album. Upon hearing all those songs, I decided that this was a band that I needed to look more into. So, I quickly bought all their albums, as I'd already done with Pink Floyd. Seeing as how The Police have around 1/3 the number of albums that Pink Floyd have released, this was much easier on the wallet.

OUTLANDOS d'AMOUR is an excellent album, and I think it just might be The Police's finest. There's really not one bad song on it. "Next to You" is a great rocker. I think "Born in the 50's" might be my favorite one on the album. It should've been released as a single, along with "Roxanne" and "Can't Stand Losing You." "Roxanne," by the way, is one of the greatest rock songs ever, even with its vehement overexposure. Just avoid the MOULIN ROUGE version.

Buy this album, quick-like.
