Who is still listening to this great concert in 2020.

Colaiuta FOREVER.

This entire gig is probably the greatest recorded drum performance ever! It has everything, I played it to death in the 90's. Jazz, reggae, impeccable groove, power, precision, incredible licks and a smattering of double bass!!! There's nobody else out there that could have played this gig with the same quality, variety and intent to that level...

I cannot believe Sting plays that funky bass without actually using slap. He's very special guy.. Unique. Excellent jazz, rock, heavy metal - all in one piece.

Sancious is one of the best keyboardplayers in the world, his techniques are outstanding! Unfortunately not everyone knows...

this is hands down the best version of this song ever. period.

Aside from the keyboard solo, for me, its Sting's bass playing that really stands out on these two tracks.

I believe most of the commentators here are Sancious fans. We cannot see and hear enough of that extraordinary man. The other musicians play well too, of course.

Sting is a got damn genius

Wow, great bass session by Sting during the piano solo! Groooove!

This is nuts front to back. As sweet as it is, it’s that bass and guitar doubling up to end the song that always gives me a chill. Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em...

What a stunning solo by mr.Miller...nothing short of perfection! Vinnie shreds it, and David must have made maestro Kenny proud! I recorded this concert when it aired on norwegian tv, I think I killed the tape in the end - thank heavens for KZfaq :)

No matter the year Sting is still the greatest musician and singer....

Sting knew his stuff! l was SO GLAD he brought jazz into his repertoire. You can jazz so many police tunes, and he was the the one who brought quazi punk and jazz together. Phenomenal musicians!

I think Vinny was on fire that night. I always swear by what Omar had done when Sting was on his "Dream of the Blue Turtles" tour but that samba-Latin style Vinny plays at the beginning is out-of-this-world good. I keep playing that part over and over again.

David Sancious is great on keys and not a slouch on the guitar either...phenomenal musician.

Timeless and sublime Mr. Sumner

This was a brilliant tour. I saw the Ten Summoners Tales tour at The Royal Albert Hall, London, and it rocked. The sound was amazing, and these four playing together was awesome. I went to 4 other Sting gigs after that one, and none of them were as good as that. Why oh why there were never a DVD of this Oslo gig.

absolutely incredible...Iplay piano...he rocks...

Sting has ALWAYS been one of my favorites. This is a great live performance. Sting's May 1994 Berklee Commencement Address was an AMAZING read. I will never forget his words. So true what he said about Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings." That hit me hard. Sting is another gifted musician that I never get tired of listening to.

Definitely one of the best Sting's concerts and my favorite ones. The first I was watching hours and hours non-stop when I was small. Terrific!

One of the best piano's solos ever!!!

Literally wore my vhs recording of this concert out when I was a teenager. Stole so many Vinnie licks from this gig. Genius.

This tour was fantastic, I saw this at the albert hall in London. It was pure raw energy, Vinnie got to shine. Stings tours after this one lacked that. I still loved them, but not as good as this line up. David Sancious was good. But you sort of always thought... mmmm, Kenny should be playing this, and you know he'd cream it too. I've still got this on VHS recorded off the TV. I wish this got the DVD treatment.

It is called perfection.

Wow, what a line up. I've said it on many other videos, but David Sancious is one of the great keyboardists of the last 40 years. He absolutely kills it every time he plays. I was lucky enough to see him play with Jeff Beck a couple of years ago and it ruled.

What a great bunch of professionals.

At the beginning 43s - 46s vinnie plays this rim shot pattern on the snare while playin this triplet feel on hats, ostinato pattern on bass drum/hi hats and its stunningly beautiful, such a talented drummer

The afternoon has gently passed me by The evening spreads its sail against the sky Waiting for tomorrow Just another day God bid yesterday goodbye The future is but a question mark Hangs above my head there in the dark Can't see for the brightness Is staring me blind God bid yesterday goodbye Turn on my V.C.R. Same one I've had for years James Brown on the Tami Show Same tape I've had for years I sit in my old car Same one I've had for years Old battery's running down It ran for years and years Turn on the radio The static hurts my ears Tell me where would I go I ain't been out in years Turn on the stereo It's played for years and years An Otis Redding song It's all I own When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When I feel lonely here Don't waste my time with tears I run 'Deep Throat' again It ran for years and years Don't like the food I eat The cans are running out Same food for years and years I hate the food I eat When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around

We've heard excellent versions with great keyboard and guitar solos before on this number. However, what makes this version superior is the way they break it down at the end followed by that huge peak

Shredding piano solo!

This should be released in Bluray with 5.1 mix

Great solo! Amazing energy from the band. Listen to Sting on the bass there. Wow!

my heart was absolutely broken when the police split but it healed when sting started making this music as a solo artist it was destined. Love you man.

Yeah , Vinnie !

David Sancious... Un FUCKING believable!!! I dont even like Sting, but you just have to appreciate that as a musician!!

Yeah !!! Living For The Brightness.. Bring On The ..Light ..To The World !!! Salud y Vida Pa'lante !!! Cheers and Life On !!!

Sting is one of my favorite artists. This show proves why! Killer band too...David's keyboard solo was very impressive! The drummer is insane too! Thanks so much for uploading this fantastic clip!

What memories.....

Who is still listening in 2024?

Beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw this same lineup on the Soul Cages tour in 1991 and they played this. There was a vhs released of a show on that tour simply called, "The Soul Cages Concert." It was almost the same exact setlist that I saw. It was a great concert video but I eventually wore mine out.I've always wanted to see that concert get released on DVD, but if A&M hasn't done it by now, it's never going to happen. I wish I could've seen him on this tour. I've seen him 3 times so I'm not complaining. Thanks 4 posting

Ez valami szédületes volt. Tökéletesen kielégítette a jó zene iránti igényemet.Szuper szuper szuper!

una presentación hace años, pero de las tantas extraordinarias con esta banda de músicos de lujo, aparte del talento de Sting 🎶🎸la versión es una pasada, mezcla funky jazzy, con solo de guitarra rock y piano jazz, qué más 👏la sigo disfrutando y escuchando a menudo, y Sting ha seguido interpretandola en vivo a través de los años.

The best part from 0.00 to 8.45

David rulezzz...

Iv listened to every single video of the (Bring on the Night/when the world is running down live) combo i could find on KZfaq. This is my favorite for sure!

That Power!

Los mejores músicos que tuvo Sting!!!

One word PHENOMENAL!!!

yeaaaaah - alwaaaays love this samba rhythm

i love the sound on this video but i wish it was louder in my headphones. I love Sting and love watching him play bass and sing.

Ahh... wonderfullll!!!!

El bajo de sting es tremendo 😮

Vienniiiiiiiieeeeeee!!!!!!

Holy Moly. These guys are MUCH better than that mechanical-feeling house band over at the Chuck E Cheeze's ... the playlist never changes with those guys...

I saw the 1st solo concert of sting in 85 it was something ....then many afterwards

2/24/24 I'm still listening😊

Just perfect :-)

I was there with my bro and girlfriend. They still thank me to this day for getting the tickets.

Tight

Fantastic! I've been hoping someone would upload this. I used to have it on VHS and played it to death. Vinnie is so great. The whole band are so tight. I still can't get that triplet thing that vinnie does on the cross stick during the samba bit whilst keeping the hi hat pattern going. I've been trying for 14 years! Thanks so much for this clip. Hopefully it will be released on DVD one day. No other drummer can do this stuff justice and a fair few have tried!

This is the fabiuolus group!!!

Wooooow!!! What else to say?!

First time I have EVER heard anything Police-wise without Stewart Copeland that I actually like better. Stewarts amazing, gappy playing wouldn't have filled out the sound so well, in this case.

TOO GROOVY !!)) Mr. Sting seems like hitting his head against the keyboard at 5:08 ))))

It is great, and Sancious is awesome, but he did get beat on this solo. There used to be a video on KZfaq of Russ Irwin playing with the band and doing this solo. If Kirkland was a 10, and Sancious was an 8+, Irwin was a 13. Seriously, if you ever have a chance to hear him soloing this with Sting's band it's just MONSTROUS!

06FEB21 BRUTAL!

The guitar player is great

As far as I know there is no DVD version of this great concert published. I also have the VHS version and digitized it. I hope anyone will publish a digital remastered version of this concert...

Best Four Piece Ever! Fight me!

👍👍👍👍👍💕💖

Remember discovering this live the night before an university examn, fair to say I couldn't study it

There is a semi-pro release of this concert available on DVD. I say semi-pro as it was shot by someone else...I guess it falls under the bootleg label somewhere. I have the concert on a pro audio cassette but its been played so much, there are audio dropouts in spots. Would love just to have the audio tracks. If you do a search for it, you will find it, but its not available from places like amazon etc, its from an independent source.

Music

Bliss rigth here. TY.

AWESOME! wish i was there. the video was smoky asf and i know why. I wonder if the band got a contact high?

@hayleyw1982 There ara a remasterized version arround the web. I don't know if the VHS version digitalized but the quality is enough

❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍😀!!!!!

It is a DVD, I saw it on Amazon (i think) ckeck it out

かっくいいー

samba

🙌🏻🔝

Anyone knows another live keys solo where (I suppose) Kenny plays looong and more dynamic and stronger then this guy, of beat and stuff??? I don't know where and when that was, I have had that version od CD copy and it is worn out :-(((

Man these cats are talking!!

Hey audience, look a little more excited there! C'mon man.

@BKIma HAHA, agreed.

Vinnie rules...give that man a hand. Who the fuck is Omar Hakim :-)

@level42info and what do you say, when you compare him with kenny kirkland?

hilsen fra skedsmokorset

Killer:)

the original was a Police song, not Sting alone, not sure whether Kenny Kirkland accompanied that powerful trio

Titulo que use para un trabajo de linguistica aplicada…

Amazing energy!! However, the audience S U C K S!!!

Bruh…. How can you follow that piano solo?

@oxygene65 Have a look on Amazon

I thought the keyboardist was Kenny Kirkland

Drummer?

No bad, but the original The Police is better.

I was there! Good choice!
