Background

The Whole Thing's Started was produced by Peter Dawkins,[3] and was released in July 1977 with Brenton White replaced on lead guitar by Rex Goh.[4] The album spawned the singles "Do What You Do" (June), "That's How the Whole Thing Started" (October) and "Do It Again" (February 1978) but neither album nor singles charted into the top 40.[2] From late 1977, the group supported Rod Stewart during his tour of Australia—he invited them to continue on to the United States and Canada. Their third album, Love & Other Bruises, included re-recordings of some earlier tracks, and was made mid-tour in Los Angeles in July–August and released internationally later that year on Columbia Records with Jimmy Horowitz producing.[3] During the tour, Paul left the band with a new line-up of Goh, Hitchcock, Macara and Russell, plus Joey Carbone on keyboards, Robin LeMesurier on lead guitar and Howard Sukimoto on bass guitar.[5] Paul, in 1980, joined fellow Air Supply bandmate McEntee in the lineup of Divinyls, fronted by Chrissie Amphlett. Air Supply performed in London supporting Chicago and Boz Scaggs.[4]
