With their heavily orchestrated, sweet ballads, Australian soft rock group Air Supply became a staple of early-’80s radio, scoring a string of seven straight Top Five singles. Air Supply, for most intents and purposes, is the duo of vocalists Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell, who met while performing in a Sydney production of Jesus Christ Superstar in 1976. Soon, Air Supply was born. Their first international exposure came in the late ’70s when Rod Stewart had them as his opening act on a North American tour. Air Supply signed a record contract with Arista in 1980, releasing their first album, Lost in Love, which was a major success in the U.S., selling over two million copies and spawning the hit singles “Lost in Love,” “All Out of Love,” and “Every Woman in the World.” The following year, they released The One That You Love. The title track became their only number one hit, and it also featured two other Top Ten hits, “Here I Am (Just When I Thought I Was Over You)” and “Sweet Dreams.” Their third album, 1982’s Now and Forever, had another Top Ten hit, “Even the Nights Are Better.” Air Supply released a greatest hits collection in 1983, featuring a new single, “Making Love Out of Nothing at All.” The single spent two weeks at number two while the album sold over four million copies. Air Supply continues to be very active, and they released Mumbo Jumbo in 2010. Air Supply is constantly touring and remains one of Australia’s greatest exports.
