"Playing to Win" is the eighth studio album by Little River Band released on Capitol Records. This album is the second studio album with John Farnham as lead vocalist and the first to be recorded by the band in the United States. The album peaked at #75 on The Billboard 200. The first single from the album was "Playing to Win", which was released in December 1984 and reached #59 on the Australian Singles Chart, #15 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart and #60 on The Billboard Hot 100. Channel 7 used "Playing to Win" as its football promo for its VFL coverage in early 1985. In addition, it is the only song from the three albums John Farnham sang lead vocals on with the band that he still continues to perform live in his solo concerts. The second single, "Blind Eyes", failed to enter the chart. The album was re-released on CD in March 1997 on One Way Records with bonus tracks.
