Priceless. He is the genuine article! A kind warm and deliciously loving person who's still in love with music and his wife Donna!

It's important to know and realise that there's not an original band member in the current band that tours USA. Whilst they (the current line-up performing legally of course) as the little river band are musicians in their own right, anyone in the USA going to see them won't be hearing the same harmonies, nor hear any of the other original band members that are in this video.

They didn't play it much on the radio, and when they did, it was an edited version, leaving out the long guitar solo. I felt like I came across a lost treasure when I first heard this. Like I ripped off the record label by paying only $6 for the album. It was worth much more than that to me. And listening to it on Bose headphones ... melody heaven, my brother.

Checkout the version of this song on their live album..Backstage Pass.. they played with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra. Being an Aussie, I love LRB. Glenn Shorrok had a great voice, all the band were great talents. Tremendous harmonies.... as you said, similar to the Eagles. All their albums are fabulous. They were huge in the USA. Got to see them a few times. Check out the video they did a few years ago.

This masterpiece was ahead of its time. It should have been re-released in 82 or so. It deserves exposure

Australia’s pride. Little River Band was our best rock band from the 70s. All the members came from other top rock bands. La creme de la creme. Go and find more of their music, all just as beautiful. ♥️

I'm not Australian but, I beg to differ. AC/DC was your country's best rock band from the 70's and 80s, 90's, 00's.........

They had so many hits and you can't go wrong with any of them. Beautiful music. Great reaction as always Harri, thank you.

Harri, when you said that you have a feeling that the Little River Band are nowhere near as big as they should be, I was thinking that we would all say exactly the same about you. You are deeply appreciated out here, brother.

I have come across your listens before and I am so glad you heard this one. Just a beautiful song and melody, with the band being astute enough to let Ric Formosa doodle on theme throughout. This is a masterpiece. I remember first hearing this in 1976 in the early morning. The station broadcasting would play lesser known music from around the world and this came on. From the very first moment I was enthralled. If these fellows had never done another thing, they placed themselves in musical eternity. This is what good music is. I hope your neighbors have come to enjoy it as much as you. Peace.
