Reggatta De Blanc (instrumental)

"Reggatta de Blanc" is a 1979 musical composition by The Police, and the title track on their second album. The instrumental evolved from improvisational stage jams during early Police performances of the song "Can't Stand Losing You", and in that form it would be represented in all the band's live performances.

Together with Dead End Job, Deathwish, A Kind of Loving, How Stupid Mister Bates and Flexible Strategies, Regatta de Blanc is notable for being one of the very few songs written by all three components of the band together, and arguably the most successful one, winning the Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance in 1980.
