The Police are a GREAT band, especially the drummer. If you like his drumming I'd recommend Cream, Led Zeppelin and Rush for equal skills on drums. Clapton, it depends on the era. If you like his guitar skills, the aformentioned band Cream is a good place to go (he was the guitar player) as well as his work with Blind Faith, Derek and the Dominoes, John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers. Freddie King, Albert King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Buddy Guy are all guitar players in the same style and talent as Clapton.

Wish You Were Here as in the Pink Floyd song? Album of the same title.

Rolling Stones are great, Sticky Fingers is an album I'd recommend if you haven't got it already.
