Little River Band – Time Exposure – Vinyl Record
Time Exposure is the title of an album by the Australian rock band Little River Band, released in 1981. The album was released under the Capitol Records label.
When Little River Band formed in 1975, Australia immediately took notice. The key band members were already well-known to Australians. Lead singer Glenn Shorrock had made his name in mid-’60s group the Twilights, a Beatles-sounding pop group who scored a national number one record with their version of the Velvelettes’ “Needle in a Haystack.”
The album features a total of 10 tracks, including some of the band’s notable songs such as “The Night Owls,” “Take It Easy on Me,” and “Man on Your Mind.” Little River Band is known for their soft rock and pop-rock sound, and “Time Exposure” continues in that vein, featuring melodic hooks, smooth harmonies, and polished production.
Time Exposure was a successful album for Little River Band, reaching commercial success in both Australia and the United States. The singles from the album performed well on the charts, with “The Night Owls” and “Take It Easy on Me” becoming hits. Time Exposure remains one of Little River Band’s most popular and well-regarded albums, contributing to their lasting impact on the soft rock genre.
Time Exposure showcases Little River Band’s ability to craft catchy melodies and memorable songs, making it a standout album in their discography.
When that group broke up in 1969 Shorrock became lead singer of Axiom, whose “A Little Ray of Sunshine” is still an Australian classic rock staple. LRB’s Beeb Birtles had been the bass player for a popular Twilights-era pop group called Zoot (Rick Springfield was a latter member). When that group broke up, in search of musical credibility, Birtles auditioned as the bass player, but was instantly elevated to a front-line position alongside Graham Goble.
Even LRB’s manager was well-known. Glenn Wheatley had been the bassist with another of Australia’s bands, and possibly its most legendary, the Masters Apprentices. Given all that background, when Shorrock and Birtles revealed they were forming a group with Goble, managed by Wheatley, it was major event in Australian music.
