The band is one of Australia’s most popular with worldwide album and CD sales topping 30 million. It also set a record for having top 10 hits for six consecutive years.
Formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1975, the band was originally a blend of musicians who had enjoyed success in other Australian rock acts.
The members’ new focus was to get airplay on American radio, and they achieved that goal with good songwriting, powerful vocals, and guitar harmonies, according to a Levitt announcement.
Between 1976 and 1983, U.S. chart successes included “It’s a Long Way There,” “Help Is on Its Way,” “Happy Anniversary,” “Reminiscing,” “Lady,” “Cool Change,” “Lonesome Loser,” “The Night Owls,” “Take It Easy On Me,” “Man On Your Mind,” “We Two,” and “The Other Guy.”
