My music memories pt XIII

The first time I knew The Police, it was sometime in early 80's, on a quiet night in my family old house when everyone weren't home except for me and my older brother.
I heard him listening to a music that pretty unusual for that time and I quickly joined him in his room. He told me that the music is called "white reggae"...geez, I didn't know what it means but I really enjoyed the music and I ended up listening to the whole "Reggatta de Blanc" album while my big brother just fell asleep.
They are one of my very first influences in approaching music through different angles.

This is their first ever performance of their song, Message in a Bottle. The song that introduced me to them.
