Man at Work

Description

Man @ Work reintroduces Colin Hay, twenty years on, with a
captivating collection of stripped-down classics and impressive new songs. Get
reacquainted with the man from down under! Review “‘Waiting for My Real Life
to Begin’ was positively riveting…” — Newsday “A really good one. It hasn’t
left my CD player in days.” — Shanon Cook, CNN Headline News “In the best
possible sense, ‘Man @ Work’ is like Colin Hay’s cover version of his own
greatest hits album.” — The Associated Press From the Label The perfect
reintroduction to former Men at Work frontman Colin Hay, “Man @ Work” combines
radically reworked new versions of Men at Work classics with previously
unreleased new songs and gems pulled from Hay’s rare, self-released solo
projects. Painting a portrait painted of a bittersweet, melodically ingenious
songwriter with wit to spare and a gift for sparse, immediate arrangements,
“Man @ Work” will be as refreshing to newcomers as it will be to longtime
fans. The infectious rhythmic punch of the Men at Work era is intact, but
draped in more subtle, mature trappings. The poignant sound of the Hay of
today, “Man @ Work” is a most welcomed rediscovery.
