Sting

Sting crossed over to super-elite fame along ago, though he still manages to outdo (at least outsize) even himself. This year, he celebrates 25 years and 10 studio albums—not to mention a handful of live albums, compilations, and greatest-hits packages—as a solo artist with his Back To Bass tour. It’s Sting’s all-time greatest hits (including a few Police favorites, naturally) delivered by the man and his hand-picked backing band.
