Sleeper Catcher

Sleeper Catcher is the fourth studio album by the Little River Band, released in May 1978. It peaked at No. 4 on the Australian Kent Music Report Albums Chart and No. 16 on the Billboard 200. The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA in May 1979.

At the Australian 1978 King of Pop Awards the album won Most Popular Australian Album.

The band is shown on the cover of the album playing the Australian gambling game two-up, and the Sleeper Catcher is a participant who retrieves bets left behind by a tardy gambler in the game.

It was the band's last album to feature George McArdle on bass.
