    Another gem I discovered on a Mississippi tape that I shared on Hubski a while back. http://sahelsounds.bandcamp.com/track/hamadth-kah-ce-weeti| This was wonderful and very familiar sounding for some reason. Like an African Message in a Bottle.

    Downloaded the tape series, I'll check it out tonight.

without a doubt it's a cover of Message in a Bottle. If there is anything I really dislike about the police it's their overwhelmingly clean production, this cover scrapes off all the fineness leaving just the beauty of the song.

Okay, see I thought that had to be the case, but parts sounded unfamiliar and I didn't find any credit anywhere. But yeah you're totally right about the Police, and right about the interesting "international" feel this guy brought to the cover.
