Well, right off the bat, this is "Permanent Collection". Stewart Copeland has fascinated me ever since I heard his drumming on "Roxanne" - especially the fade-out, which I turn WAY UP. What an early life he had - son of a CIA agent, hanging out with the Philbys in Lebanon, later teaming up with two Brits in the record-smashing-worldbeating band The Police (and trying not to murder bandmate Sting). Then there are the personal projects. Another great find at BMV. I had no idea this book existed. I will have read autobios of all 3 "policemen" once I've read this one. Andy Summers' "One Train Later" was really, really good. This book is choppier - short chapters, impressions as Copeland leaps from one project to another, one country to another - in keeping with his hyper, leg-bouncing-up-and-down persona. Talk about energy!
