What Are You Listening To?

[CRAZY-HORSE]

LITTLE RIVER BAND "sleeper catcher" 1978, vinyl....#4 AU, #16 US

this was one of the first albums i bought using pocketmoney aged 11ish, guess i knew what good music was at that age eh?
these guys from Downunder always sound like The Eagles to me nowadays,very similar harmonies and melodies IMO, they had a string of hits throughout the last half of the 70s and into the early 80s both here and in the US and along with Air Supply basically paved the way for US success for other Aussie bands overseas like AC/DC,Men At Work, Midnight Oil and INXS to name a few, lead vocalist Glenn Shorrock left the band a couple of years after this one and it all started to fall apart, he is still performing here in Oz and has appeared in quite a few stage musicals over the last couple of decades

I LOVE THIS ALBUM
