Glenn Shorrock is and will always be my voice for LRB.

[@realityrealestate5755]

Another group of people owns the Little River Band name. The real Little River Band goes by the name gobles,birttles and shorrock. That's the one we know & love !

[@arciefan]

No question for me Glenn Shorrock sung all those hits beautifully and he's always number one lead singer for me in LRB!

[@duncanquilkey9556]

Yes Glenn was better to listen to not taking anything away from Farnham but growing up having listened to Glenn made me sort of not want to hear LRB

[@robertwilliams5352]

@Lou Danny Malacts I dunno...I thought "We Two" was pretty good.

[@ronfowlermusic]

@@robertwilliams5352 it's great!

[@PDKMA]

I watched an interview with Glenn saying John was just in another level that he couldn’t match. He really admired his style and range.

[@Vegasshakenandstirred]

Agree 1000 percent

[@davidkost418]

Glenn is the one I picture in my mind when I hear LRB - awesome voice.

[@mel124177]

Farnham is a powerful voice but Shorrock will always be LRB's signature vocal style. The songcraft and the harmonies during his era of LRB were just absolutely phenomenal.

[@kreese316]

People are here in 2022 to listen, STILL, to some of the best music in the world recorded by the Little River Band. And the songs we are listening to are still almost exclusively the songs that Glen Shorrock recorded. The Glen years were magical. We didn't need another Fleetwood, we needed LRB and the sound that we fell in love with. John Farnham was an incredible singer and hard to compare with Glen, with different strengths. I wish that we heard more from John in the US, in a band that fit his voice and style. I'd buy that too. Love both singers, but along with the 25+ million who bought his songs, Glen is the face and sound of LRB that we still look for to give us that comforting, groove, warm vocals, and the perfect blend that never gets tired.

[@sarahhumphreys3980]

John Farnham went solo after Little River Band and has had hits in Australia in the 80's and 90's. On you tube search Your the Voice, Take the Pressure Down and Two Strong Hearts. Your the Voice was a huge hit for Farnham in 1986. He's a very successful solo artist. Hes sung a duet with Olivia Newton John and he played Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar.He's considered an icon here in Australia.

[@geerterri]

@@sarahhumphreys3980 Don't forget Chain Reaction. The whole concert is here on KZbin.

[@geoganicus7238]

After watching this it is pretty obvious why they all left. Goble. Me, me, me. My hits, my songs, my band. I, I, I.

[@jamestejada3673]

You got it.He put his songwriting ahead of the band.

[@carldreitlein1376]

I feel so lucky to have seen them live with the Eagles and Heart .the best day of live music I’ve ever had !

[@alejandrobonahora6484]

HI CARL....HOW OLD IS THIS MAN...I MET HIM IN MY COUNTRY WHEN THEY RECORDED THE ALBUMS ´´DIAMANTINA COCKTAIL´´ AND ´´SLEEPER CATCHER´´...THIS LAST NAMED RECORD WAS CALLED HERE ´´ATRAPADOR NOCTURNO´´..EVEN THOUGH IN MY COUNTRY THE MOST IMPORTANT RECORD WAS ´´EL PRIMERO EN LLEGAR´´, WHICH SUPPOSEDLY.´IN AUSTRALIA SHOULD BE CALLED ´´THE FIRST UNDER THE WIRE´´......GREETINGS FROM ARGENTINA, MY FRIEND

[@jimshunamon2512]

Carl I saw that same lineup in Connecticut (USA). Was my introduction to LRB and they weren't even listed on the bill. Just Eagles, Heart and "guest". Middle of summer in an open air outdoor stadium with temps over 100 degrees and no one even cared about the heat. Greatest concert of my life.

[@timothyjfry2027]

As an Aussie , no one could understand why the lead vocal change happened ? This vid has cleared it up , an shows how desire an ego can be very destructive.

[@BigDave.4i334]

Clearly the change was the downfall of the band. I feel they needed to change their style as well, it they wanted to compete in the 1980s. After 1983, their albums had very little success. I'll give them credit, they were unstoppable from 1977 to the 1982/1983 timeframe.

[@lanstarphoenix4189]

I like both singers and I get what both members interviewed are saying Glenn was the voice of LRB and John is THE VOICE

[@rickcope3226]

Without a doubt. They were the best harmony band of all time

[@nba2kchannel490]

The facts speak. All of LRB s biggest hits were with Glen Shorrock as lead singer.. Case closed.

[@jefffuller9918]

Wayne Nelson did lead vocals on The Night Owl which was another hit. Farnham was lead on the Other Guy. So no Shorrock didn't sing lead on all their hits

[@007ndc]

​@@jefffuller9918John sang We Two which was another hit

[@jenniferbrasuell5060]

Beeb is the Bomb..love him

[@patallen5095]

Every time Graham mentioned "We", it really sounded like he meant "I". Great interviews. Miss this band!

[@mrboat580]

Even in hindsight and having given all of LRB's albums a fair shake, I still am more moved by the early years. This after leaving this style of music for decades. The sad part about all of this is there was plenty of time for them to each have their own way and yet egos still got in the way. Never was a huge Farnham fan with this group. It added that show-boaty edge to the music that had turned me from other bands as well. The original was just raw, unique, and wreaked of collective and collaborative skill and talent. The Farnham era just seemed so predictably commercial, comparatively.

[@nigethejedimaster]

I really appreciate the honesty of the conversation. This is Aus Music History (warts & all) and as a huge Farnham fan I really appreciate the multiple perspectives. No ego bashing here, it just expressing the highlights and pitfalls of creative differences. Great video.👍🏻

[@mattrixx_audio]

This is a great interview about four of the greatest Australian artists in our time!!

[@johnford5568]

Amazing they stayed together as long as they did. Its tragic that none of the main classic three guys raised a voice to preserve the band's name in a way that just in case they reunited, the name would always reside with those three. Instead, when each walked away, boy did they walk away.

[@nowitsabadtime]

Seems insane that NO original members own any rights to this band! Hopefully this will serve as an example to other bands.

[@jake-qw4or]

@@nowitsabadtime Just saw LRB in St. Louis 2022 hard to believe that they are using the name YIKES

[@susanpark7339]

Thanks for the great interview with Graham Goble. I, also, would love to see an interview with John Farnham!!!

[@johnnyfever9708]

No Reins was always my favorite LRB album. Glad I'm not the only one that feels that way.

[@ronfowlermusic]

Me two. We two!

[@back2antiochagain287]

I really liked that one, also. Definitely of of my favorite LRB. I love Time Exposure, too. And Backstage Pass. It was like being at a concert without actually being there. Loved the live orchestra. Absolutely mesmerizing.

[@glh-zs7mf]

Long Way There from original lineup is a stunning track incredible music

[@sabrehill1]

All legends. Love from the UK. Grew up listening to my dad's LRB cassettes and 40 years later the tunes and lyrics are embedded in my brain. Superb.

[@davidturfrijer701]

I think this is one of the best interviews about LRB, very honest and true.

[@yodabert1]

Of course Bands have to develop but for me the original line up with Glen Shorrock on vocals was the best line up. Have great memories of the band and the album Sleeper Catcher

[@davidmelton2091]

Glenn Shorrock, Beeb Birtles, Graham Goble and Derrick Pellicci are the Little River Band and I see Glenn Shorrock as their lead singer.

[@ScottOuellette-p1d]

EGOS GREED ATTITUDES CAN MAKE EVEN THE BEST VERY SYSTEMIC AND POISION.

[@RichardJansen-j6q]

Glenn was right, he deserved to have songs on the album to receive royalties. Goble put himself and his songs ahead of the original group. The public has spoken beyond a shadow of a doubt, the Original LRB was the greatest combination pewriod.

[@groverbaker6404]

LRB!! on my turntable frequently!! Love this band!!!

[@DeanWuksta]

glen has such a warm beautiful tone, yes Farnham can sing high, but i much prefer Glen’s voice in this band

What a great band, absolutely amazing 👏 Sweet memories and a little sad. Keep Rocking

[@lambertodgr8]

Love these histories I was always a fan of LRB

[@brendonburgin5250]

When it comes to lead singers in bands 'stuff happens' whatever that may be. I think sometimes it's good to hear different voices through out the years. Both Glen & John have great voices and LRB gave Farnham the great solo career he had, the best Aussie had.

[@ruthelizabeth9638]

Liver River Band had a big part of my life, loved them, oh man on a plane, in Jamaica, I was listening

[@Ark-Angel44]

Cool Change is forever etched on my heart.

[@scottpartridge5542]

I sold four ounces of Nimbin buds to LRB. IT was a cracking night.

[@PaulLea]

These interviews with the real LRB are fantastic. Very sad that one massive contractural stuff up has cost them their name. Graham Goble has a great memory & nice to learn in other interviews that he has interesting plans for the original LRB going forward (LRB stage musical etc).

[@cristiona22]

A bit hard for me to watch this. I loved LRB and I love Farnsey too . He is one of the best worker of an audience I have ever seen. . John is so humble and classy and I’d love to hear his view Point .

[@vivianconciliado2126]

i love john farnham incredible voice

[@TheLoveTheUSA]

Farnham is absolutely the BEST ever! Always...😍

[@chuckhutton5087]

Who’s lead singer on the song”Take it easy on me”? I think it was Glenn. Great song.

[@erichinton5774]

That is Glenn yes

[@littlewing6231]

People get it mistaken because that moron Wayne Nelson redid the vocals himself and most greatest hits have his re-recorded vocals over Glenn’s. 🤢🤮

[@jaycareaga9929]

John Farnham was in a LRB concert shot for HBO around 1983 I remember watching it.

[@kc0lif]

i like Glenn's singing and John's singing. wayne is good on night owls and take it easy on me.

[@gmac1583]

I love No reins…the song - it’s my personal anthem in life!

[@richardalexander4300]

I have always been a big fan of LRB, I started listening to them after coming home from Vietnam. The original 70s band is my favorite !!! There harmonies is what drew me. However, there where many great bands during the 70s. Paul Rodgers and Bad Company pop up to my mind too. We had the music for sure. The 90s saw music start heading down hill far as im concerned. Lets not forget The Moody Blues too !!!

[@DavidMelton-r7l]

Glenn Shorrock is the lead singer of the Little River Band. Glenn Shorrock, Beeb Birtles, Graeham Goble and Derrick Pellicci are the Little River Band and they should be the ones who have the rights to the group.

[@greggardner2042]

Another great interview John, so insightful and you really give them space to speak. Cheers!

[@jonhelgerson8028]

No Reins is a great album, I remember talking to Wayne Nelson about it at a later show and he seemed shocked we had even heard of it. You can tell they worked really hard on it, too bad most folks didn’t get to hear it.

[@robertpearce6657]

No Reins was a super album some great songs on that Time for us was a fabulous track that have great harmonies

[@ronfowlermusic]

Housden told me "it's our best sounding album".

[@mariaday712]

I love your videos. I find them very informative and fun to hear the artists talk about their experiences.

[@mdarrenu]

I never knew they had another lead vocalist other than Glenn. I never heard any more songs/hits after the early 80s. Maybe in Austrailia.

[@dawnthomson9269]

In another interview John Farnham says that being in LRB grew him up as an artist. He also says that the road crew was told to gaffer tape his microphone lead to the floor so he couldn’t move around the stage. I liked John in LRB, he brought a different sound to LRB, I also liked the sound of Shorrock in LRB. It’s interesting listening to this as in another interview Goble says that after infighting between Shorrock & Birtles he asked Shorrock to leave LRB & now Goble is saying that Birtles left LRB after infighting between Birtles & Farnham.

[@duncanquilkey9556]

To me growing up listening to Glenn who was not only in LRB also Axiom and the twilights made me think as an singer he was very gifted it’s ashame how it ended for these guys who put Australian music on the map in America it would be nice if they could do like the eagles did with their He’ll freeze is over get back and make music like they use to

[@jeffreymoen9318]

Well it's time to shake hands and make up! I know you have some Fantastic songs in your folder, myself and the public would love to hear another New Album. Reunion tour?

[@Elwrt455]

Still listening to LRB October 30, 2022

[@back2antiochagain287]

Beautiful harmonies and timeless tunes. LRB is like the little black dress of music: the members change form from time to time, but they never go out of style. :-)

[@findJLF]

Love these interviews and insights into LRB. Great stuff. Thank you.

[@michaelwright664]

Another great interview John 👍🏻 I could never understand why The Little River Band had the great Peter Beckett in the band during the early 90’s yet waisted his talent not recording or using his songwriting, crazy

[@ronfowlermusic]

They didn't have a record deal after Worldwide Love.

[@mauricecondran8200]

Will you be interviewing John Farnham on his time in LRB?

[@punkynoodle9370]

Such honesty. Really feel as though we got the inside scoop.

[@cosmicdrifter287]

Because of these terrific series i revisited the whole excellent LRB backcatalog again.

[@SecretAgentPaul]

I'd love you to interview David Briggs and George McArdle about their time in LRB.

[@georgebarry8640]

I LOVED David Briggs guitar work in LRB. I saw LRB on the same night as the Eagles, and Heart..and LRB was easily the best of the 3...I didnt expect that. And Briggs was soooo good.

[@modspell]

They interviewed each other, including Pellici in another YT vid.

[@onetwo9869]

Night owls 🦉 one of the best songs ever!

[@UntrepidOne]

Reminiscing was and is magic about how he and the band recreated or created that sound from what? The 30s ? Perfectly done . It captures the feelings of reminiscing with a friend . The atmosphere , the distant yet close memories the wondering of what if and what became and here we are, Reminiscing. Cool. For me it's 45 years later after hearing the song the first time.

[@jameswells755]

That “time exposure”should have put them on the map for the rest of the 80’s.there was 3 hit singles from that album.I think the Air Supply put a little dent in their success because they hit number one several times and they were the band from Australia everyone was familiar with.

[@terrypoff4198]

The very first concert ever saw. The Little River Band in Las Vegas 1978 (ish). The harmonies were Beatlesque, and that just might highest compliment one can pay.

[@ronfowlermusic]

I agree with Graham, No Reins is their best album. And guess who sang half of the songs on that album? Wayne Nelson. Face in the Crowd, Time For Us, No Reins on Me, Thin Ice. I think John Farnham was already working on Whispering Jack at that time. He sang on It's Just a Matter of Time, When the War is Over, How Many Nights, Forever Blue, Paper Paradise, It Was the Night. Interesting, too, that when Glenn came back to the band, they made a fairly hard rocking album, Monsoon. John could have sung any of those songs, but Glenn is "the voice" of LRB, and he did fine on It's Cold Out Tonight, Parallel Lines, and others.

[@rebeltuba9422]

LRB did the second show in the new performing facility in my hometown. Nelson and Shorrock had quit two weeks before, and several others had left previously, so they had a new bass player, lead singer, keyboard and middle harmony, and drummer. Stevie Housden, not an original, was running the band and was the longest term member on stage. They were still, two weeks into a tour with new personnel, faithful to the songs and harmonies, and put on a great show.

[@macbeavers6938]

Egos! It is "always" egos!

[@MsSez]

Ego and control issues much! Graeham seems a bit up himself in this interview tbh :(

[@careful...Icarus]

Glenn sang in the box,within the framework of the songs. John sang in the general vicinity of the box,but more like one of the instruments. Playing with lines and phrasing. Both brilliant,but very different.

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Very interesting.

[@mr.kite0535]

Any thing I watch on the LRB, who I was thankful to have seen in person twice, I always comment ‘The second best band in the world’ hands down.

[@phildodson830]

I saw Wayne's version of LRB in concert last week, and they did a phenomenal job. The harmonies are true, and they sound great. I'd love to see the classic lineup together again, but that is a pipe dream ("and pipe dreams never come true"). Wayne's doing a great job!

[@Bmanhaas]

Thank you for LRB in person insights. Love your channel...

John has one of the finest voices to ever bless this planet. ❤ The LRB featuring John is my favourite line up.

[@darrenjray]

Glenn could never have sung 'We Two' and 'Playing to Win'.

[@welshieallovertheplace]

@@darrenjray John Farnham could sing the songs Shorrock sang lead on, but not the other way around. It says a lot about John Farnham.

[@stevemarko1691]

@@welshieallovertheplace He sang them, but they didn't sound the same. The "magic" first and foremost from the beginning until Shorrock left was the combination of the voices of Glenn Shorrock, Beeb Birtles, and Graeham Gobel. Farnham was great, but it was never LRB again after Shorrock left. They SHOULD have chosen a different name for the band, and THEN kept going with their "new" sound. It was still a solid band with another great lead singer and great songwriting that could still have had mega monster WORLDWIDE hits, but the illusion that they could do that while still carrying on under the banner name of "The Little River Band" as if the sound hadn't changed doomed them. They had achieved putting magic in a bottle. Then egos and personal agendas loosened the grip bands on the working formula that the public loved, wanted, and paid their money for. The corporate money machine was only hungry to keep their "Cash Cow" producing no matter what and refused to acknowledge that bottled magic when they should have stepped in to give the band a well-deserved rest for a year or so to rest and gain perspective, but did not. Then the revolving door began turning. The bottle was dropped and shattered. The "magic" evaporated. Cheers

Fascinating interviews, thanks 🙏

[@jerryblake4088]

So Goble decided his songwriting was gold and garden-variety Glenn wasn't cutting it. Well the sales proved what I could have told him myself. He should have just produced Farnham on the side and kept the peoples' singer, Glenn Shorrock, well-serviced with 'dumbed-down' but hot-selling material.

Excellent interviews here!!!! With love, two many opinions, too much talent, and not enough attention for either. As usual in any great band.

[@vanseventy]

In my opinion….A lot of bands are stuck in a time period which is fine. The music changes with time and styles and now we have absolute garbage. These guys were and still are some of the best ever and after this era,was the eighties with rock in the the early eighties as well as synth music which was great music. Doesn’t matter what type and how good it is,if your not in the club of thee owners who put music on the airwaves then your not getting airtime,that’s the issue…the controllers of the airwaves and the decline of morality in the world itself.

[@halbunner8899]

[@Sometimes-even-lyrical]

Did Jimmy Barnes ever sing lead with LRB? Who sang lead on the song "If I Ever Get Lucky"? In the music video it looks like Barnes, but not sure of the sound.

[@jamestejada3673]

No.I think that was Glenn But Stephen Prestwich from Cold Chisel played in LRB for a time. They did a version of When The War Was Over which he wrote.

[@patriot388]

I agree with Beeb! After Farnham joined the band, the quality of the songs went downhill. Bad move replacing Glen!

[@TheLoveTheUSA]

IMHO I think John Farnham is the greatest male vocalist ever, and he would have made it with or without LRB. I do agree that being a soloist was the best decision for him, though I do love his performances with Human Nature. LRB was a great band, and it is sad their time of fame was short.

[@VedranG]

Would be great if you could get John Farnhams take as well. He is very humble and easy going from interviews Ive seen.

[@lynnemarshall2266]

John Farnham very sadly has had some serious treatment for (a seemingly small) cancer of the mouth. The surgeons had to remove part of his jawbone. So our beloved John is having a prolonged rehabilitation. (Hoping this is OK to post. Otherwise please remove.)

[@neilm2794]

Very interesting interview. Other interviews I’ve heard left me with the misconception that Beeb and Goble were of the same mind and booted Shurrock out of the band. I really didn’t know Beeb left the group about a year after John Farnham arrived, and preferred Shurrock. I like both singers a lot, but agree with most commenters that Glenn was the better voice to fit LRB

[@redjack56]

I’ll take the early LRB years anytime !

[@bramvansteenbergen7167]

Very interesting to hear this as a fan and fellow musician, from literally the first time they set foot in Europe. I loved the Net. The production of Time Exposure is not up to LRB standards even though George Martin was involved. But in all, I'm on the Beeb side. Farnham is fantastic but the whole dynamics changed with him. Glenn is the voice of LRB, just simply no doubt. It proves because he returned, but like they sang in their own song: One for The Road: "As we get older, we'll go our separate ways Look for better days, there maybe ain't a second chance" They predicted their future. I love CSN, the Eagles etc. But I don;t think LRB realizes that they ARE the top. Songs, recordings, musicians in the Band, the fabulous harmonies, NOBODY ever did better then them. And I have been in this business as long as they have. Too bad they could never really reconcile and keep recording together. They missed out and so did we, the fans :-(

[@luvbasses5487]

Lonesome Loser harmonies - right out the gate - are alarmingly PHENOMENAL. It’ll make the hair on your neck stand up.

The problem Graeham, is that the public preferred and still prefer the original Little River Band. And it sound's as though the original muso's do too.

It's not as "radio" as the prior records, but I thought The Net was a great album. IMO, by 1983, the world had moved on.
