Playing to Win

Little River Band

A high-octane departure into 80s arena rock. Jagged guitars, aggressive synths, and powerhouse vocals replace the band's signature coastal breeze.

1984 · One Way Records (14)

A high-gloss, high-stakes surge of adrenaline and late-night urban tension.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive title track opening with a jagged guitar riff and John Farnham's soaring, stadium-ready vocal command.
The eerie, cinematic tension of 'One Shot in the Dark' where the synths mimic the anxiety of a city under siege.
The lush but driving vocal harmonies on 'Piece of the Dream' that bridge the gap between their soft rock past and hard rock future.
