User Reviews: Ghost in the Machine (Remastered)
A great "cocaine Lp"
Pros: songs, energy, experimentation
Cons: Sting self-dubs harmonies a bit profusely
Usually, post-fame 'cocaine albums' totally suck (Oasis anyone?)
But here, fusing an increasingly coke-headed band with a technically gifted new producer somehow resulted in a unique, alluring balance.
Uncontainable energy meets pea-soup texture. Very cool.Was this review helpful? Yes - NoGood, but not as good as the first 3
A good CD, but the only real standout song is the excellent Every Little Thing She Does is Magic
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoThe Police get better with each album.
This album was great to listen to, I own it on CD, and it was interesting the other tracks on this record that didnt make it onto the Singles album, or Greatest Hits album. All in all, the Police are like a fine wine, they just get better and better with each album they make.
Was this review helpful? Yes - Nonot great
spirits in the material world, invisible sun, and secret journey are very good, but the rest are to damn upbeat. The horn instruments are poppy and annoying.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoI agree
Synchronicity is great, but this album is absolutely incredible. This is their best album.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoGhost in The Machine/Police
One of the Greatest Police Albums of all time...
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoSheer brilliance.
Eclectic blend of rock, reggae, and world music. Wonderful, maybe their best album.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoBest Album
Way better than Synchronicity. Very diverse. No two songs sound the same. Very intelligent lyrics on most of the songs
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoBest side B you've never heard
The first half of this disc should be pretty well known- tracks like the title song and "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" are classics, but I've actually grown to like the second half more. Unknown Sting tunes like "One World" and "Too Much Information" are fantastic, and some of Stuart Copeland ("Darkness") and Andy Summers' ("Omegaman") songwriting can be found here. The goofy Sting/Copeland collaboration "Rehumanize Yourself" reminds me of their early work on Reggata De Blanc, before Sting started taking himself too seriously.
