The Police: "Police Brutality".

Outlandos d'Amour was the debut studio album by the English new wave band The Police, released on 2 November 1978 by A&M Records. It peaked at No. 6 on the UK Albums Chart and at No. 23 in the United States.

The album was recorded at Surrey Sound in an intermittent fashion over six months, the recording sessions, with a budget of £1,500 borrowed from Stewart Copeland's brother Miles, began at January 1978 and ends in June; with the band jumping in whenever the studio had free time or another band's sessions were cancelled, something very similar to how Queen had recorded their first álbum, back in 1972.

When these sessions ended, an early version from the album had made, with 13 theme. Miles named it "Police Brutality". and so he showed it to different labels. Line-up:

Side A: (18:43)
1.Truth hits everybody.(2:45).
2.Can´t stand losing you.(2:39).

7.Dead end job.(2:54)

All songs by Sting except: Peanuts (Sting & Copeland) & Be My Girl-Sally (Sting & Summers). 
All tracks are unreleased alternate versions except (*) 

Eventually A&M became interested in the album but advised some changes such as title, so Miles did it  to "Outlaws of love", envisioning a more romantic image for the band. after hearing Roxanne.Besides that needed to be restructured to make it not only more commercial but more powerful.  So the new version was shortened to just 10 songs; relegating: "Dead end job" that closed the original album and "No time this time", to be sides B of the future singles. "No Time This Time" The latter was included on “Reggatta de Blanc” bit.ly/2y05w However,the two songs from their second single "Roxanne", The Police were initially reluctant about it, but Miles Copeland was immediately enthusiastic and not only did he want it to appear as a single but also on the álbum; and  "Peanuts" a composition written by Stewart Copeland and Sting about Rod Stewart. The lyrics were meant as an expression of disappointment on Sting's part towards his former idol; Both will remain in this new version.

Others on the contrary as “Fall out” from their 1st non-album single was replaced by the outtake “Masoko Tanga”. "Be My Girl—Sally" is a half-finished song by Sting, later completed with an Andy Summers poem. Here you can hear the original mix.Almost all the songs were retouched,and expanded by folding for example to get the minutes necessary per each side. Meanwhile on August 14 the second single from the album came out: "Can´t stand losing you" with "Dead End Job" on side B. But this single was banned by the BBC, owing to the cover depicting Stewart Copeland with a noose around his neck, because . the song, “Can´t stand losing you”  is about a young lover being driven to suicide following a breakup.

When the new version of 10 songs was finished, the title had been changed to “Outlandos d´Amour”. a loose French translation of "Outlaws of Love", with the first word being a combination of the words "outlaws" and "commandos", and "d'Amour" meaning "of love”.

The album initially performed poorly due to low exposure and an unfavourable reaction from the BBC to its first two singles, "Can't Stand Losing You" and "Roxanne" (about suicide and prostitution, respectively). Also the reviews of the album were largely unfavorable. Subsequent retrospective reviews have been more favorable, as one of the strongest debut albums by any band or artist. It ranked No. 38 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of "100 Best Debut Albums of All Time". In 2012, the magazine ranked it No. 428 on their list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

Ok folks, that´s all.., for now.  Enjoy it.
