Owen ★★★★★

The grain in this print really captures the raw energy of that 1981 session—you can almost hear Sting’s bass through the static. Lynn Goldsmith’s eye for the candid moment is spot on, and the mounting feels sturdy enough to hang for decades.

Robert P. ★★★★★

You can almost feel the tropical humidity in the air from the recording session, which Lynn Goldsmith captured perfectly. The black-and-white print has a rich, archival quality that makes the candid shot of the band feel both immediate and timeless.

William O. ★★★★★

That candid moment of Sting midsentence is so alive you can almost hear the studio hum around them, and the black-and-white grain feels like you're flipping through a real contact sheet. Lynn Goldsmith really caught the band in their element, not posing, just working.
