Sounds like The Police.

Interesting observation. If you are interested in a bit of trivia, there are several Wishbone Ash/Police connections
 
Miles Copeland (brother of Stewart) was WA's first manager and was also responsible for getting the original lineup back together in the mid 80s.
 
Martin Turner's brother Kim was involved with The Police as a sound engineer
 
Martin Turner married Andy Summers' ex girlfriend and became stepfather to Andy Summers' son.

Released today - sounding very much like Wishbone Ash used to. Also available on Spotify.

Just got this today.  Wishbone Ash is a well known band which I often neglected..  Thought I might go through a few of their albums.  Argus sounds pretty cool!!Tongue
