The Police - Can't Stand Losing You Live at Old Grey Whistle Test

Venue: Old Grey Whistle Test Location: United Kingdom Date: November 30, 1977

In this live performance from November 30, 1977, The Police delivered a high-energy rendition of "Can't Stand Losing You" on the iconic Old Grey Whistle Test. This track was featured on their debut album, Outlandos d'Amour, which had been released just earlier that year. Notably, this album showcased their unique blend of rock and reggae influences, setting the stage for their rise in the music world. The Police were still finding their footing, but their dynamic on-stage chemistry was already apparent, with Sting's commanding presence, Copeland's infectious drumming, and Summers' signature guitar work. It's fascinating to see them in this early phase, as they would soon dominate the charts and become one of the most influential bands of the late '70s and early '80s.
