Les deux musiciens ont participé à l'enregistrement de l'album de Rusty Anderson "Undressing Underwater", mais sans doute pas en même temps.

Copeland a participé à une séance studio avec Paul et George Martin, mais ça n'a pas été très concluant comme le révèle l'extrait de l'interview à lire ci-dessous.

Stewart a essayé d'apporter un peu de folie sur le morceau, mais Paul et George l'ont recadré et lui ont demandé de respecter les consignes. Le batteur de Police a eu l'impression qu'on l'avait convié uniquement pour son nom et pas pour son style de jeu.

Gert : You once  made a jam with Paul McCartney, when and where did it happen and how did it feel  to play with a Beatle ?

Stewart Copeland  : Well, it was great. Except the fact that I didn’t actutally play with a Beatle  ! He hired a bass player, and I went along, it was George Martin and Paul and  they were doing some songs, some boring pop ballad. And I tried to do something  cool with it but they were like “no, no, could you just let it as it is”. I  realised they didn’t ask me to play in this track for my way of playing, they  wanted my name on, you know. But this was a great day. As soon as we realize the  track wasn’t working, he just told Beatles stories for the end of the afternoon  ! This was great, stories of him and John... That’s fun ! Then we did had a jam,  which was pretty cool actually, but I don’t think he ever used it for anything.  And I’ve learned something from him : he showed up the studio and I’ve had real  problems parking. He said “what do you park for? I just came on the Tube !”,  “you came on the Tube ? You’re a Beatle for fuck sake !”, he said “yeah, why not  ?” And I was in this bubble of thinking “I can’t go on the Tube, people might  see me”. “yes sure, so what will they see, so what ?”. And so from that  moment... I really learned something for not giving a shit. It’s very  liberating.
