Introduction

This 224 page book based on Stewart Copeland's diaries covers the years 1976 - 1978, with a short outlook of what was to come in 1979. Stewart kept detailed notes of his days with Curved Air and the early years of The Police, but later diary / calendar pages are rather blank. That's why the book concentrates on the early period.

It features lots of handwritten diary pages, present-day notes about the events, rare photos, flyers and posters.

Although it was supposed to be sent later in October the very first books arrived by mail on October 5, 2023 - as a warehouse in The Netherlands didn't quite follow the publisher's orders.

On a personal note: the publisher didn't feel like glossary and the names and credit sections needed proofreading. That's why Dietmar's is mis-spelled every single time...

Editions

The book was published in three editions.

  • Classic Edition - hardcover book
  • Signature Edition - hardcover book limited to 500 copies, signed by Stewart Copeland, with clamshell case bound in blue buckram, large folded Outlandos poster and a CD with early Stewart Copeland demos (featuring demos for Klark Kent and The Police songs as well as songs that never made it...)
