After Hours (Little River Band album)

After Hours is the second studio album from the Australian rock band Little River Band, released in April 1976. It peaked at No. 5 on the Australian Kent Music Report Albums Chart.

Lead singer Glenn Shorrock names this album as his favourite album by the band.

The album was released in the US in October 1980.

In between the recording of After Hours and Diamantina Cocktail, two founding members of the band departed: Ric Formosa (lead guitar) and Roger McLachlan (bass).

Reception

The Allmusic rating for After Hours is for the 1980 US version that is a compilation of leftovers from the Australian albums following the international release of Diamantina Cocktail.
