Englishman, Graham Russell and Australian, Russell Hitchcock met as
cast members in the stage production Jesus Christ Superstar. They set out on an adventure;
to find success.
Then in 1977, the album Love and Other Bruises was released.
The amazing talents of Air Supply brought one of many successful
songs, (composed by Graham) to the Australian charts at # 2, "Love And Other
Bruises", which became a classic, then "Empty Pages" at # 18.
This was only the beginning for Air Supply and to the fans around
the World. Immediately, the invitation for Air Supply to tour with Rod Stewart, came. Not
only in Australia, but in the US and Canada.
In 1980, Air Supply is welcomed by the US. Lost In Love is
released and contained the 3 songs that would hit the top five on US charts. "Lost In
Love" at # 3 (5/3/80), "Every Woman In The World" at # 5 (12/31/80) and
"All Out Of Love" # 2 (9/13/81). These would be the first of eight Top #5 chart
hits for Air Supply. America could not get enough of the 'Australian Boys'. The first
album to see the Multi-Platinum.
The Definitive Collection was released August 26, 1999 with all
the hits, plus the original version of Lost in Love and other songs that became classics,
but not necessarily singles. The package has new artwork and notes from Graham and Russell
about every song.
Twenty five years of great music and friendship
make this still-touring band a pleasure to see and hear in any size
venue.
