In this episode we uncover the three tracks that made The Police and Sting global superstars and the producers, backing singers, photographers, journalists and biographers who watched it happen. We discover how the three musical maestros; Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland first struggled to convince as a punk band and find out from renowned photographer Jill Furmanovsky that it wasn’t until their single ‘Roxanne’, an almost overlooked song about a prostitute, that they found the musical breakthrough they craved. Then The Police’s seminal hit ‘Every Breath You Take’ which with its dark themes of surveillance, obsession and stalking, inspired by the breakdown of Sting’s marriage, was made in the studio against a backdrop of infighting and professional jealousy as revealed by the track’s producer Hugh Padgham.

Relive the moments that made The Police an unforgettable band and helped keep Sting, the solo artist, at the top for over forty years.

For more than three decades San Francisco rock band Journey have been selling out stadiums around the world. The band began in the early 1970s as a prog rock oufit, but their biggest success came when lead singer, Steve Perry, joined the band in 1978. Steve Perry known as The Voice, brought a new sound and a wider audience. Journey’s Escape album became the bands biggest selling album to date reaching number one and selling a million copies. It scored three top ten hits: “Who’s Crying Now,” “Don’t Stop Believin’,” and “Open Arms.” But behind the scenes multiple changes in the bands line up were evidence that not everyone was happy with the new change of direction. Breaking the Bands: Journey reveals the story of this legendary band.
