I like the cover better - Police on my Back

The first time I heard this song was the cover by The Clash:

Police on my Back


The original is by the band The Equals. It's amazing. One member of The Equals you need to know of - if you somehow don't know - is Eddy Grant. "Electric Avenue" is one of the best rock songs of all time.


But that's besides the point here.

The original? Great song.

The cover? Superior to my ears.

I always wanted to use this as a walkout song for a fight. What I ended up using back in the day was Killing Zone by Rancid.
