Being the eighties, the big drum sound and rock arrangements (there are a shed load of musicians on this album) threaten to overwhelm the Aussie battler at times.
The better songs tend to be the ones with fewer musicians on them. The trump card though is Hay's vocal style. The guy can sing and he has a great vocal inflection that make this album a pleasant experience, if not an essential one.
Where do they all belong? I don't own any Men At Work albums and this will be it for Mr. Hay.
