The Police surge en Londres en 1977, año de crispación, delincuencia y paro en el Reino Unido, causas del malestar social que hizo a la juventud comenzar a adorar a cuatro chavales que gritaban, despotricaban contra la monarquía y bebían mucha cerveza (y se metían lo que no era cerveza), Los Sex Pistols. En pleno auge del movimiento punk, en el que el virtuosismo instrumental y las letras carentes de insultos y política estaban relegados a un segundo plano, eran las bandas realmente buenas las que salían adelante.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

Miss Gradenko --------------- [It's a song by the Police. It sounds *great* because of this cool arpeggio picking that the guy (Copeland, I think. Or is it Summers?). The E7 and D7 seem to be played alternating between standard and A-Barre forms. The D9 is X00230. The D9 may be wrong. The second line may end in an A7 instead of the E7 A7 progression, but I'm not sure. If anyone would care to either correct this or send a note saying "You're right".]
