A dear friend of mine emigrated to Spain ten years ago. He was the drummer in four bands we played in together.
He's been playing all over the Costa in several bands. Now he has put together a new band with two Spanish musicians to do a Police tribute.
Just like mister Sumner, the bass player takes the lead vocal (although he doesn't speak any English).

His Ripper sounds very articulate in this video they made

That's not half-bad! I don't go much fro tributes of any time, but I like these guys, vocals and all plus the jammy middle part which cites other Police songs.

I remember seeing Police do that track on German TV when no one knew them - that mix of reggae, power pop, Sting's singular voice and that monolithic yet always changing chorus sounded like nothing else on earth before. I was smitten.

From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

I like this version better than the original!

That was very good! I can tell he doesn't speak English but they are nice and tight.

Saw them as a support just when they released that, third on the bill, but supporting Spirit...?

The friend that sold me my Marshall cab, the Hiwatt, and his SG (all of which I still have), gave the single as a (tongue-in-cheek) gift to his neighbour as a Christmas present, as that was her name... somewhat risqué, considering the subject matter, but she was married, so... ;)

A G-3 like it is meant to sound - with THE OTHER Mr. Big (70ies UK band, no doubt Ken will soon chip in how he saw them too ...):

Sounds cool. Think he's running flats on that thing?

Could be - in the seventies flats weren't such a seldom thing with British bass players, the pick/flats combo was a trusted recipe to be audible without getting in the guitars' way.

Alas, Dark Lord, I have not seen every band to play here in the late 70's and early 80's, just quite a few... ;)

... also missed this lot, mucho digusto... superb release... No ripper content but no apology for inclusion of excellence and 1/2 of the best version of WS too..

Certainly not everyone's fave player but I don't think we've had this one... possibly topical...

Wango Tango.... That's about the time I decided the Nuge had lost his marbles.

Nice Hamer Standard!

His core work is probably the two Discreet LP's and the first three Epics, then it slid... a couple of gems here and there, but...

Somebody musta slipped something into the Vernor's ginger ale that Ted favored.  "Scream Dream" also included this personal fave of mine...
