I will forever associate this song with the move An American Werewolf in London and more specifically

Superb film and great soundtrack. The first video we ever rented back in 1982. Still can't believe they never used "Werewolves of London" on the soundtrack though.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

I think these 5 records would give you some great insight into his discography.

Hello,
Various Artists - Ska Sucks. No. It. Doesn't. This is a pretty good collection of 3rd wave ska bands. Many will recognize quite a few of the bands.
On a side note, I picked this up at Edwin McKay's, a used book and cd shop in Greensboro, NC - great shop. I picked up the ska collection in the bargain section. I couldn't help but notice there was a lot of Sting cd's - as in over a dozen just in the one case I was looking into at the time. I really like the Police but man, has Sting fallen.

Johnnytwentythree, The Bridge. A really good post-rock band who clearly love the last two Talk Talk records. This album's pretty affecting as it was written in the wake of, and in therapeutic response to, the bassist's suicide. There's something especially devastating in one (rare) bit of included words on the track "Shipwreck": Your death is not kind / Your death is not benign / Your death is a shipwreck. The video for "Shipwreck" is also quite beautiful. One of the best records of last year for me.

Re: What Are you Listening to Right Now?
My library had a copy of Bowie’s Welcome to the Blackout, a live album released last year made of two shows from 1978 that I somehow only learned existed like a week ago. Two songs in and it’s good as hell.

Re: What Are you Listening to Right Now?
I posted that in this thread sometime back and I think only Matedog responded. The Earls Court shows and yes they are brilliant. An amazing listen and I was at the Saturday show.
