I like Reggatta de Blanc for that, that one really demonstrates how crisp and tight they sound as a band. I know parts are born from jam sessions and Copeland has a heavier hand in the songwriting which is probably a good thing at this point. Zenyatta is also a bit like that but more sterile and there's less material. Can't argue with Ghost either though the direction that goes in after the 3 hit singles is not really the Police's main sound, I mean Sting plays a bunch of sax on it for whatever reason, though the songs themselves are very good
