Album Notes & Community Reviews

Solidifying their status as an international radio juggernaut, 'First Under the Wire' presents the Little River Band operating at peak commercial efficiency. The album delivers pristine, harmony-drenched soft rock, famously propelled by the massive transatlantic hits 'Lonesome Loser' and 'Cool Change'. The immaculate studio production perfectly encapsulates the slick, breezy ethos of late-seventies adult contemporary pop.
