1983 US Original With Gold Promo Stamp On Front Cover. Includes Custom Inner Sleeve. Released in July 1979, "First Under the Wire" is a pivotal album by the Australian group Little River Band. This record marked the band's continued international ascent, particularly in the United States, where it became their highest-charting album, reaching the Top 10 on the Billboard 200. "First Under the Wire" features two of the group's most enduring hits, "Lonesome Loser" and "Cool Change," both of which secured significant airplay and solidified the band's reputation for polished harmonies and melodic songwriting. The album was produced by John Boylan, who contributed to its polished sound, helping bridge the band's roots in soft rock and pop with a broader commercial appeal.
