Shot in Atlanta in November 1983, Sting and his faithful cohorts Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers perform a selection of hits from throughout their career, including songs such as "Message in a Bottle," "Every Breath You Take," and "So Lonely." The show was expertly directed by Godley & Crme, a duo who carved out an impressive reputation as music video directors and musicians after leaving their band, 10CC, at the tail end of the '70s. To complete the package, the band are interviewed in Melbourne on another date on the Synchronicity tour, making this a comprehensive document of their final days.   Features Region 1 Keep Case   Entertainment Reviews The Police - Synchronicity Concert - DVD Review By: Paul Roy - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 7/9/2007 10:54 PM Synchronicity Concert was filmed at the Omni in Atlanta, Georgia on the 2nd and 3rd of November 1983, during the band's final tour in support of their #1 album Synchronicity.

Mediocre at best sound quality. I loved listening to the Police in the 80's when I was in High School, but this DVD did not do it for me. They try a few funky camera tricks that did not impress me either. Disappointing.
