Birtles, Shorrock & Goble - Reminiscing from "Full Circle" DVD (formerly of Little River Band)

Birtles, Shorrock & Goble singing Reminiscing during a live performance on their "Full Circle" DVD. They were principle members of the group "The Little River Band".

[@roymoore3156]

So true. His voice is much greater than a “rock” voice. I hear him, and that band he was once a part of, sing and for a few moments, all’s right in the world. Little River Band lives!

[@beautyking6161]

YESSSSSSSS!!!! Farnham has a great voice but he was never LRB. These three are and always will be LRB. Oh the times I’m missing….spending the hours reminiscing. LRB was the first concert I ever went to.

[@roymoore3156]

@@beautyking6161 I saw the LRB follow Bob Welch (ex Fleetwood Mac) and they both played before Heart. But the concert was the last outdoor concert in Medford, Oregon. It had been routine to fill the baseball stadium and bring in a band to play. In the summer of 1978 they played the last show there. I still treasure the memories and reminisce with great fondness. LRB is yet another once in a lifetime band from the golden age of music, and Australia!

[@beautyking6161]

Roy yes…..you must be around my age, 59. We had some great music in the 70’s and 80’s. I often long for the days of concerts where you could buy a ticket for 25.00 and sit without folks taking selfie’s and looking at their phones for the duration of the concert. Those were the days and I miss them. I’ll always love LRB!!!

[@roymoore3156]

@@beautyking6161 Nice note, thank you! I’m a bit older, and that might be seen in the ticket prices. As I recall the Heart, LRB & Bob Welch wasn’t more than $25.00 or so. I’d just come from military duty in Germany where I’d seen Dylan/Clapton/Scorpions in Nurenberg for about the same amount. In 1973 a show I saw where ZZ Top was the opening act, the ticket was $5 or $6.00. I have dozens of ticket stubs from back when and they’re all 5-7 bucks. Elton John’s Yellow Brick Road tour was under $10. It’s just mind numbing to think what the prices are today. American sporting events are stupid expensive. In the recent baseball World Series in Houston & Atlanta, average near the field seat, 3rd base to 3rd base was around $6-8000.00 per butt! Anyway, I am learning about and listening to what I really knew little about, Aussie music from the day. Sure, there’s been Olivia, the BeeGees, LRB, INXS, Keith Urban was about all I knew. I knew them well too. But I took my sons to see Joe Bonamassa for their first show here. Joe and the tube led me to a couple of songs Joe did with Jimmy Barnes. Wanted more. Learned Mahalia was a singer in Joes band. Wanted more. Cold Chisel, then John Farnham and the big picture of the grandeur of the Australian music industry revealed a bit more of itself. The Voice Aussie is as stunning as I’ve ever been stunned. I really like Judah, the man who won the Voice a few years ago. Taj is a great little volcano...just so many. (I digress, but if you haven’t seen a young girl from Japan name Yoyoka, search her and listen. She’s a drummer from Hokkaido...since age 3. Check out Robert Plants reaction to her covering a Led Zeppelin song...at age 8.) She sponsored by Pearl drums since age 8, she’s 12 today. Her videos have MILLIONS of hits, and she has millions of covers. Anyway, sorry for the long wind...

I wouldn't say it is their original sound. Shorrock was much better in the 70s thru the 80s & sang their songs much better than years later. Although, I think LRB was much better & more exciting with Farnham.

This song pays tribute to the great jazz band, The Glenn Miller Band. The Glenn Miller band, a jazz band from many, many years ago, had more top ten hits than Michael Jackson did, more than Elvis did, and more than The Beatles did. "Reminiscing" a jazzy pop tune is one of the best songs from the decade of the 1970s. John Lennon loved this song.

Beeb is a founding member of LRB and a key member of the original and classic lineups which wrote and had all the hits. This is a 'must see' video for fans of LRB - one of Australia's treasured bands. Filmed 2019 @ Jack's Place in Melbourne Australia. I am grateful to Beeb and Donna for their time and generosity.

I know it’s late, but as long as they were just touring in Australia, I would’ve told the USA Band and legal people to shove it. We’re going to use it whether they like it or whether they don’t there is only one little river Band and these three guys are the Storch.

[@Setentero62]

Magnifico tema y con el grupo original, en vano no pasa el tiempo, pero lo siguen interpretando casi igual....... Saludos

[@MMMarvelous]

This band is in the similar boat as a number of other bands who lost the rights to use the name & identity they created. If you want to see LRB, you should go see BSG. For CCR, go see John Fogerty. For The Guess Who, go see Cummings & Bachman. For The Beach Boys, you can go see them still, but you're only getting Mike Love and late-arrival Bruce Johnston, who wasn't there when the hits were being made, and they play the early music. Instead, go see Brian Wilson. He's not quite right, but it's cool to see him nonetheless, and his backup band is incredible, plus they have a guy that sounds just like him singing along with Brian, so whatever slipups Brian does are typically covered up decently. They also do the better Beach Boys material from Pet Sounds which the touring Beach Boys band doesn't do.

[@edmont2449]

Muy ok. Ok 👌

[@dadduorp]

I just came here after seeing a round of videos of other LRB singers. This isn't a nostalgia thing, but I much prefer Shorrock's version. Yes, the others guy(s) had some pipes and sang the shit out of the tune, but "Reminiscing" calls for a plaintive, reflective tone and not a belting out, histrionic power-ballad approach. The Little River Band saga is the down unda' version of the band War.

[@edburck]

Agreed! The vocal gymnastics of the versions after him, while 'technically' great, completely drain the depth of emotive feeling from the lyric.

[@R1MORRIS]

To each their own. IMO the live concert in 1983 from Melbourne had the best version of this song ever done. Farnham was superb & being his voice was higher than Shorrock's, the harmonies were sung a full tone higher & they sound so much better & exciting in the higher key. They also put more life into this song. I have no agenda with LRB. I loved the originals & thought the Farnham years were even better. But, it's a crime the "new LRB" has the name now. Wayne Nelson was good with LRB in the 80s, but, no way should he & Housden ended up owning their name. Just a crazy technicality in the way their contracts were written. Birtles & Gobels didn't realize when they left the band, per the contract, the LRB name ownership went to Nelson & Housden. Such a terrible oversight of the way the contract was written.

[@sdanjohn]

Those that still call themselves The Little River Band are at best a cover band. LRB without BSG is like the Beatles without John, Paul, and George.

[@jorgreick8893]

Shorrock is the speaker.like by the Eagles Don Henley
