Description
Puttin’ In Overtime brings together the essential Men at Work recordings that made the Melbourne band one of the most distinctive acts of the early 1980s new wave era. Their signature sound — Colin Hay’s sardonic vocals, Greg Ham’s unmistakable flute and saxophone lines, and a jangly, sun-baked pop sensibility — is on full display across this collection. The CD opens with the anxious classic ‘Who Can It Be Now?’ and includes the irresistible, globally ubiquitous ‘Down Under’, the track that topped charts across Australia, the UK, and the United States simultaneously. ‘Be Good Johnny’ and ‘High Wire’ round out a set that captures the band at their sharp, melodically inventive best…
