I love how these guys incorporated Reggae into their New Wave rock sound. I'm not sure of his name (something Copeland?) but the drummer for The Police is excellent. Listen to some of his drumming on Regatta de Blanc for instance, and you'll see how he combines his great drumming with Sting's Bass.

Yeah I thought his first name was something along those lines.
