Andy Summers, the band's guitarist, took scores of photographs capturing life on the road with Sting and Stewart Copeland between 1980 and 1983.

Now he is putting them on public view - as the band embarks on the European leg of their comeback tour.

Summers, 64, said a book of 38 limited edition hand-signed prints was planned even before Sting approached him about reforming. "The photographs reflect that period and people have responded very well to them. I think people are pining for the Eighties," he said from New York.

Andy Summers - I'll Be Watching You: Inside the Police 1980-1983 will be at the Jill George Gallery in Lexington Street, Soho, from 29 August to 8 September.
