Not at all. The Police are amongst the all-time greats, and they should be. Very talented guys who did something pretty great (mix rock and reggae with some very original technical innovations)in the days when all New Wave bands had the same shtick (big-haired, post-punk-wannabes with little talent). In my opinion, there were only half a dozen or so bands that emerged at the same time as The Police who could be comparably compared to them.

Anyone who doesn;t consider the Police somewhere in the Top 10 of all-time rock bands knows nothing about music, or worse, probably thought Disco was awesome.
