Behind My Camel

Behind My Camel

The Police

“Behind My Camel” is a Grammy-winning instrumental written by Police guitarist Andy Summers and performed by him and drummer Stewart Copeland. Sting did not perform bass on on it because he “hated that song so much”.

Primus covered the song on their 1998 EP Rhinoplasty. Frontman Les Claypool explained he chose this instrumental track because “Sting’s vocal parts are, to say the least, a bit too challenging for me”.
