And they conquered the charts like no band before or since, with a 1982 debut that shattered records by staying for 15 consecutive weeks at the pole position on the Billboard Top 100. They were Men at Work, a quirky bunch led by a Scottish-born vocalist whose humor, style, and distinguished singing helped the quintet become one of the 1980s' definitive new-wave acts. And it all started with the irresistible Business As Usual. Mastered on Mobile Fidelity's world-renowned mastering system at pressed at RTI, this LP retrieves an immeasurable amount of previously concealed details from the music. For the first time, the band's percolating rhythms, pulsating guitars, brassy horns, and whimsical beats come to fore without interference from congested mixes and a flat perspective. Spaciousness and imaging are restored, as is the rebirth of palpable dynamic contrast and instrumental separation. Above all, the record is more fun than ever before.

No Nos Dejamos Afeitar (InchWe Will Not Be ShavedInch) by Dick El Demasiado aka Dick Verdult is considered the first album of InchExperimental CumbiaInch, also known as InchLunatic CumbiasInch. It has never been issued on vinyl before. Blending lo-fi 2-beat rhythms with raw electro-rock, No Nos Dejamos Afeitar emerged as a cult , sparking a rebellious wave of experimental cumbia that echoed across generations.Verdult was born in the Netherlands but grew up a citizen of the world, moving around through more than twenty countries, including Guatemala, Argentina, Japan, France, Spain... The list goes on. He studied film at the University of France during the agitated late '60s and also in San Francisco with Georges Kuchar in the early '80s. He is a sculptor, writer, multimedia artist and musician. Around 2000-2001, he began experimenting with cumbia. It started with chopping up tracks on his MPC sampler, and soon after, Verdult moved on to producing his own music and writing lyrics in Spanish. Recorded in the Netherlands, the No Nos Dejamos Afeitar CD was first released in Argentina, where he subsequently started to disorient audiences there and around the world performing with his band Los Exagerados. His song InchMecha FlanInch was performed on Argentina Sports TV Channel for an audience of over 30 millions viewers in South America back when the CD was released, helping to cement his popularity in Mexico, Colombia and Peru. A documentary directed by Luuk Bouwman, Dick Verdult - It Is True But Not Here, came out in 2017 and is highly recommended to understand the fascinating life of this artist. Calar Music is exploding with joy to this essential album. More than an LP this is a bomb, and every track is pure dynamite!InchHis strange sound has gradually spread from Argentina to all over the world.
