Every Move He Makes: Sting Plans Multiple Formats of '3.0 LIVE' Album

April 9, 2025 By Mike Duquette 3 Comments

Version 1.0.0

BUY NOW FROM AMAZON.COM

Sting is chronicling his latest back-to-basics tour with a multi-format live album - and you'll have to be quick (and lucky) to hear it all.

The British rocker embarked on the 3.0 Tour last year; true to its name, Sting assembled a trio - having not toured with that few backing members since his days in The Police - consisting of longtime guitarist Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas. The result, which came to North and South American theaters as well as festival dates in Europe, was not only a faithful take on The Police's best-known tunes but a stripped-down approach to Sting's solo hits and even some long-unplayed cuts. (The trio also released a studio single, the Bo Diddley-esque "I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)," to celebrate the tour.)

On April 25, Sting 3.0 LIVE will be released to stores everywhere after a 2LP release for Record Store Day this Saturday, April 12. The RSD version features new live recordings of favorites like "Every Breath You Take," "Message in a Bottle," "Wrapped Around Your Finger," "All This Time," "Shape of My Heart" and "Fields of Gold," along with a few tunes never released by Sting on a live set, including "Fortress Around Your Heart," "Be Still My Beating Heart," "I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)" and other songs lacking the word "heart" in the title. Unfortunately, the general retail version on CD and LP in the U.S. will only feature the first nine songs of the RSD collection - literally just the first LP. You'll have to import the Japanese version to get the deluxe edition on two CDs. (In an even more unusual and slightly dated strategy, digital versions will get a recording of "Fragile" that's not on any physical edition.)

The standard version of Sting 3.0 LIVE can be pre-ordered at the links below. As an Amazon affiliate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.

    To add to the ‘exclusive track’ chase, the Sting Fan Club Membership Gift this year is a USB with six tracks from the forthcoming live album including an exclusive track, ‘Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic’ not found on any other format.

    Why? He needs a new yoga mat, I guess.
