Feast your eyes, and listen closely to an absolutely legendary band: The Little River Band. This would be the type of song that puts a big smile on all faces, and it just doesn't get old like the others. The amazing example of this beautiful song, sounds exactly like the originally recorded one on their studio record, released in 1981. These guys have aged, but haven't lost a thing. They still got it together as though they released all their music just yesterday. I find that very incredible. God bless them all!! Most bands age, and usually don't sound the same after many years time. This is a wonderful get together of these incredible musicians, playing this, that is my very favorite song of theirs. The Night Owls is great too.🎵🎶🎼

No longe little river band. Now BSG Sold the right to the LRB name. Now the band that tours under that name is a tribute band. One member was on a few songs in the 80’s. Basically scamming the fans. You see in the heading it even has BSG in parentheses

Nice high note at the end Glenn😉 like Wayne and John Farnham did in Germany in the mid 80's. I remember the video and your ending was much more subdued. With that said....Carry on😊

Simon is a great guitarist. He plays the lead with passion. He gets to show off his stuff in the prelude to Mistress of Mine. That guitarist, who owns the Little River Band name now, Housden, is way over the top. When that Housden guitarist played with the group, every song was a blowing session, way over played, nauseating. A blowing session is for practicing your chops at home. The Little River Band song writing was exceptional. The harmonies excellent. The polish made by the strict discipline of Graeham Goble.
