I don't think any of the Police albums are exceptional... Except maybe Synchronicity. Far too inconsistent IMO.

Probably their most forgettable album, but there are still some really good songs here. Don't Stand So Close To Me is of course the most well known, but When the World is Running Down and Canary in a Coalmine are also really great. Not nearly as good as Reggatta De Blanc or Synchronicity but I don't think the Police made a single bad album.

I used to really enjoy this album in particular of all Police albums at one point. The first 4 songs and De Doo Doo Doo are all definitely worth listening. The rest of the album is alright, but in the end just Reggatta Pt 2. Still like it more than Ghosts in the Machine, what a lackluster album that one is.
