Away From Home - cover version

I was made aware of a killer cover version of Away From Home

It doesn't stick to the Klark Kent song, but adds own stuff and a Police-like end.
It's on this CD:

Thanks, Dietmar.

The sample on Amazon sounds intriguing. I will be getting it.

Speaking of KK Kovers, has anyone heard the ska band Skankin' Pickle's cover of "Don't Care" on thier Green Album? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Green_ ... in'_Pickle).

I got the Away from Home version.

It took a couple of listens before I got into the ending but a great version.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Glad you liked it
I LOVE it! Can't get it out of my head these days.
The awesome bass player is a very nice Italian fan of The Police I happen to know personally, but it's not Giovanni...
The band's guitarist will send me the whole CD, and I hope the rest of the record will sound similar!

Excellent! Good cover, and you certainly can't complain about the price. Love the changes. Thanks, D!

I know what song will be stuck in our heads all day now.
