Men at Work - Down by the Sea/ F-19 live Ontario, Canada 1982

[redfishradical]

Holy crap! You found a live recording of this song? This is one of my 2-3 faves by them! Not many of my friends have ever heard of it. Thanks for sharing brother, appreciate it! For what it's worth everyone who liked these guys should check out Collin Hay's solo stuff, he's strill writing great music!

Both Strykert and Rees are playing bass guitars, with Strykert doing the lead lines, as per the songs intro. What a great sound, lead bass! Spent many a winters night in a mates back yard flat back in the early eighties with the local bodgies spinning out to this album.

I remember Nickelodeon used to show this entire concert back in 1983. We didn't have a VCR back then, but we DID have a TV with a mono audio out jack. I recorded the concert onto 8-Track! I'm going home for Christmas. If I find that tape, i will be quite the happy camper....but how the hell am I gonna play it?? eBay to the rescue?? If anyone has the whole show on video, PLEASE let me know somehow...

[Sam178888]

ok, they just were so great that you cant hear the difference between live and studio.

[crackers95]

Ron on bass hows the sounds ' Two top live songs

[Sam178888]

it IS playback. hear the glitch at 1:30.

[jimslob99]

@Sam178888 It is definitely not playback. The glitch is with the video, not the sound

[whammydive67]

@riccardodavino: I ment: Ron plays bass in this song.

[riccardodavino]

@whammydive67 Ok.

[DartsRme312]

@Sam178888 most likely john reese would be playing bass...ronnie was lead guitarist

[Malzarin]

Maybe their greatest song!

[88mpny]

@Malzarin I agree it's their best song. just a perfect beat and harmony.
