The trademark sound of Russell Hitchcock's soaring tenor and Graham Russell's simple yet majestic songs created a unique sound foreven known as, Air Supply. From their initial 1975 meet at rehersal for Jesus Christ Superstar in Syndney an instant freindship formed leading to their own performances and a recording contract. Signed to Arista Records in 1980 "Lost In Love" became the fastest selling single in the world followed by "All Out of Love" which became even a bigger hit. Seven top ten singles later Air Supply, at that time, equaled the Beatles run of consecutive top five singles. The albums, "Lost In Love", "The One That Loves You", "Now and Forever", and "The Greatest Hits", sold in excess of 20 million copies.
World wide touring and multi-million plays on the radio solidified Air Supply as a permanent force in modern music. Air Supply were trail blazers on the tour front being the first pop music group allowed to tour China and Taiwan. South America has also been covered as were countless other countries which led to "The Earth Is" selling over a million copies outside of the US alone. This project was followed by the CD "The Vanishing Race" and singles "Goodbye" and "It's Never Too late" with multi-platinum sucess. To the cheers of their millions of concert fans Air Supply recorded two new title (Free Love , The Singer & The Song) to be sold exclusively at their concerts. Based on a distribution deal with OddsOn Records for the first time both titles are available to fans outside of concert venues. Free Love will be released to the general public on July 14, 2009 followed by The Singer & The Song released Sept 15, 2009. Both titles were recorded in Graham Russell's Park City Utah studio and offer acoustic version of Air Supply's greatest hits and standards that have made them one of the all time duo's in history.
