Behind My Camel

"Behind My Camel" is the eighth track from the 1980 album Zenyatta Mondatta by the English rock band the Police. The song was written by guitarist Andy Summers and was the first one to be composed solely by him during his career in the Police. It won the Grammy Award of 1982 for the Best Rock Instrumental Performance.

The song features a simple, yet eerie guitar melody, which is quasi-Arabic in style (hence the title), a repetitive bass riff played by Summers himself because of Sting opting out, drums played by Stewart Copeland, and atmospheric keyboards.

Ultimate Classic Rock critic Mike Duquette called it "one of the more accomplished Police instrumentals, thanks to Summers’ Eastern-influenced guitar work."
