Men at Work

In January 1983, Men at Work was riding high on the success of their debut album, "Business as Usual," which had been released in November 1981. This album had not only achieved commercial acclaim but also propelled the band to international fame, thanks to hits like "Who Can It Be Now?" and "Down Under." By the time of the live recording in 1983, Men at Work had established themselves as a prominent band on the charts, with "Business as Usual" topping the Billboard 200 in the United States. Their unique blend of rock and reggae, coupled with humorous and socially conscious lyrics, resonated with a wide audience, making their live performances particularly electrifying. The year 1983 marked a pivotal moment as they were gaining momentum and recognition on a global scale, setting the stage for their subsequent album, "Cargo," released later in the year, which would continue their commercial success.
