Strontium 90: Police Academy is a music album, released by Mike Howlett in 1997, containing studio tracks and some live performances by Strontium 90, the band that played a major role in the forming of The Police. This album constists of live tracks recorded at Gong's reunion concert in Paris on May 28, 1977 as well as five studio tracks recorded in London just before the concert. Interestingly, this album also features Sting's demo version (strictly speaking not a Strontium 90 track) of Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic, which later became a massive hit for The Police, as a bonus.
