One River

7CD set. Collects five studio albums from "First Under The Wire" (1979) to "No Reins" (1986), plus double live album "Backstage Pass" (1979) and three BONUS tracks. Little River Band are an Australian rock band, formed in the early to mid 70s in Melbourne. They have had a number of massive sellers, their mainstream rock with a commercial edge finding more success in the US than the UK. With more than 30 members come and gone, the band are currently operating with no original members.This box collects the six albums recorded for Capitol, having previously issued four albums on EMI. Each album looks and feels good in a replica card sleeve, with a booklet in a nice box.

This two-fer from Australian pop/rock outfit Little River Band includes the group's 4th and 5th albums, 1978's certified Platinum "Sleeper Catcher", which featured the hits "Reminiscing" and "Lady," and 1979's "First Under The Wire", which included the international hit "Lonesome Loser."

After her superb debut from the Japanese Venus Records (Someday My Prince Will Come), her eagerly awaited second album is something of a coup — she recorded the entire album with the all-star hard bop group One For All. The supergroup that includes Eric Alexander and David Hazeltine has never accompanied a singer for an entire album. The familar standards are tastefully and intelligently arranged, and Cole's attractive voice and the ability to swing are in full display. Her voice is rich and strong. She has impeccable technique and control, and a confident jazz style that hints an influence from Carmen McRae. And, as expected, the ensemble and solo work of the band is simply phenomenal! A rare album that satisfies fans of vocal jazz and fans of serious hardbop, instrumental jazz!

Sleeper Catcher is the fourth studio album by the Little River Band, released in April 1978. It peaked at No. 4 on the Australian Kent Music Report Albums Chart and No. 16 on the Billboard 200. The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA in May 1979. At the Australian 1978 King of Pop Awards the album won Most Popular Australian Album. The band is shown on the cover of the album playing the Australian game Two-up, and the Sleeper Catcher is a participant who retrieves bets left behind by a tardy gambler in the game.
