Men At Work Vinyl Records

Men At Work was an Australian pop/rock band formed in 1979 in Melbourne, Australia. The original lineup consisted of Colin Hay on vocals and guitar, Ron Strykert on guitar and vocals, Greg Ham on flute, saxophone and keyboards, John Rees on bass guitar and Jerry Speiser on drums and percussion.

The band's debut album, Business As Usual, was released in 1981 and was a massive hit, reaching #1 in Australia and the UK, and #2 in the US. It spawned three top 10 singles, including the hit "Down Under," which reached #1 in Australia, #2 in the UK and #3 in the US.

The band's second album, Cargo, was released in 1983 and was another success. It featured the hits "Overkill" and "It's a Mistake," both of which reached the top 10 in the US.

Men At Work's final album was Two Hearts, which was released in 1985. It was not as successful as their previous two albums, but still reached the top 10 in Australia and the UK.

The band's most memorable songs include "Down Under," "Overkill," "Who Can It Be Now?," "It's a Mistake," "Be Good Johnny," "Dr. Heckyll & Mr. Jive," and "Man With Two Hearts."

An interesting fact about Men At Work is that "Down Under" was the first ever Australian single to reach #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
