This is a DTS CD, which features DTS 5.1 Surround Sound technology and is playable on a DTS-capable 5.1 Surround Sound system.
Sting's double-length follow-up to his solo debut DREAMS OF THE BLUE TURTLE is very much in the same sophisticated, adult pop vein, although darker and less jazzy (notwithstanding a collaboration with Miles Davis's arranger Gil Evans on a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing"). The songs are a generally varied lot, ranging from a tribute to victims of repression in Argentina ("They Dance Alone") to a tongue-in-cheek, sort-of-reggae tribute to famous eccentric Quentin Crisp ("An Englishman in New York"). The sort-of-funk "We'll Be Together"(originally written for a Japanese beer commercial) is the most upbeat and pop-ish thing here, and was deservedly a hit single, although Sting now disdains it.
This DVD Audio features a special re-mix into 5.1 Digital Surround Sound for release in the DTS 5.1 Music Disc format and includes all of the songs in the CD.
Recorded at Air Studios, Montserrat. Includes liner notes by Sting.

One of Sting's finest releases. Brilliant, both lyrically and musically. Definitely one of Sting's finest recordings. The vocals and musicianship are flawless from start to finish. Invest in this one, you won't be disappointed. A close second to Sting's masterpiece "Ten Summoner's Tales". Submitted by Craig (Minnesota, USA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo This review is for a different format.
