Customer Reviews of Cargo
You like Men at Work? I saw Colin Hay play 'Overkill' accousticly on an episode of Scrubs last year and it reminded me of some of the great work the band put out in the '80'sand early '90's. Can't say that I adore every song, but his writing skills are really solid. It's a good recording to have in a collection. Definitely one to play when everything else sounds the same.
Ghosts Appear and Fade Away
Men At Work's second, and in my opinion, best album came out in 1983. Featuring smash hits like Overkill and It's A Mistake, Colin Hay and the boys from Down Under surpass the successes from their debut, Business As Usual. Unfortunately, this would also be the last release with the original line-up. The band carried on with the follow-up Two Hearts in 1985, but it didn't gain much attention. Colin Hay has continued on as a solo artist, and often tours with Greg Ham under the Men At Work banner. Anyone's ultimate 80's music collection would not be complete with...Cargo!
Excellent effort! Very adventurous!
Before I start, I wish that Colin Hay and his band Men At Work would have been at 10 albums or so or have just as many hits as Usher, Mariah Carey, Jay-Z, or other artists have now. They were on such a roll after two albums (including Cargo), and then what happened? Maybe couldn't handle fame, the floods of fan letters or the multi platinum sales or the pandemonium of fans. But they tore it up in 1982 and 1983! Cargo doesn't match the greatness of Business at Work, but it is a solid album, with adventurous songs like Overkill, It's A Mistake, Settle Down My Boy and others. One standout is the fast paced Restriction Zone and its strumming guitars. Colin and his band make solid pop rock on every song, and the songs are hooked in your head after several listens. These fellows need to get past their bickerings, get a new album out, talk with their managers, and tear up stages once again like they did in their '80s peak. If Prince could sell out shows in 2004, why can't Men at Work? Show the public once again what made the '80s so great with the music! Maybe they won't do it now, but someday. I think that Cargo was one of the band's finest moments.
