"Live at Hatfield Polytechnic" radio broadcast was what even ever got me into that band (My daughter thought she hated them until she heard that tape, since all she had heard was synchronicity).
Years later we recorded Stewart @ OWR (Oceanway) for a Nissan commercial, it was the most astounding 20 secomds of drums I had ever heard and I HATE drum solos!
I've argued with people who thought the Police was all about Sting, but, after experiencing working on a sting album I think we can say the whole of the police was lager than the sum of the parts, and without stewart, it would have been... Loverboy, the competing music format at the time!
regards,
DB
