The Police released their debut album, Outlandos d’Amour. Originally titled ‘Police Brutality,’ the name was changed to sound more romantic. ‘Outlandos’ combines ‘Outlaws’ and ‘Commandos,’ loosely meaning ‘Outlaws of Love.’ Led by the hit single ‘Roxanne,’ the album peaked at No. 6 in the UK and No. 23 in the US, also producing hits ‘Can’t Stand Losing You’ and ‘So Lonely’. #Police #70smusic #ThisDayInMusic
