It's not every day you see a big piece of catalogue get loosed from the jaws of rights holding or format availability - which is why we're extremely pleased to pass on the news that, four decades after its original release, The Police's first video album is coming back into print.

Review: The Beatles, "Let It Be" [Various Formats]
Everybody had a hard year/Everybody had a good time... The Beatles' twelfth and final studio LP may have been titled Let It Be, but that particular admonition has been all but ignored over the years. The album - recorded before, but released after, 1969's Abbey Road - was in some respects a step backward from the band's previous, experimental LPs as they sought a "back to basics" sound that didn't involve overdubs and studio wizardry. Ultimately, though, that approach was rejected. The
