THROUGH BEING COOL: STING

That headline is a bit harsh, I guess, and I actually am a fan of lots of Sting's post-Police solo work.  The Dream of The Blue Turtles was a good album, Bring On The Night is a really great live album, and I'm a big fan of his ... Nothing Like The Sun album. The Soul Cages was devastating, and I really enjoyed Ten Summoner's Tales.  He's done lots of one-off tracks that were great too, like "Freak The Mighty" for The Mighty soundtrack, an amazing cover of Elton's "Come Down In Time," and I could go on and on. I just haven't liked much of his recent stuff.  The latest: he is going on tour with a symphony orchestra. It's called "An Evening With Sting."
