They came from the land down under. And they conquered the  charts like no bandbefore or since, with a 1982 debut that  shattered records by staying for 15 consecutive weeks at the  pole position on the Billboard Top 100. They were Men at  Work, a quirky bunch led by a Scottish-born vocalist whose  humor, style\u0026amp; distinguished singing helped the quintet  become one of the 1980s' definitive new-wave acts. Comes  housed in a deluxe gatefold picture sleeve which is  individually number stamped in gold on the back, complete  with the series card inner.

For the first time, the band's percolating rhythms, pulsating guitars, brassy horns, and whimsical beats come to fore without interference from congested mixes and a flat perspective. Spaciousness and imaging are restored, as is the rebirth of palpable dynamic contrast and instrumental separation. Above all, the record is more fun than ever before.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnchored by two ubiquitous singles, \"Who Can It Be Now?\" and \"Down Under,\" both still FM radio staples, Business as Usual signified a changing of the guard on the new-wave landscape. With leader Colin Hay's vocals bearing a passing resemblance to those of Sting, and his mates supplying what seems like a constant stream of keening pop-rock hooks, dance-baiting grooves, and brassy rejoinders, the record transcends any limitations and showcases a creative depth that extends to the album cuts. No wonder Men at Work soon shared stages with the likes of the Clash.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurther separating the group from the pack is its wit. Playful, carefree, and exuberant, the songs resonate with a looseness and joyousness with which the decade is forever associated.
