"That's the way it began, we were hand in hand Glenn Miller's band was better than before... " That line refers to Glenn Miller, not Steve Miller. The Glenn Miller orchestra was a big band from the 40s, and you can tell by the orchestration that immediately followed that line, which "Miller" they were talking about. So obviously, this is an older couple reminiscing the old days.

This song is a lazy, rainy Sunday afternoon in fall. You've time travelled back to the 70s. No cell phones. No emails. You're at home, just opened a bottle of wine, the smell of cooking wafting in the air while you and your partner dance in the middle of the living room in your slippers. It doesn't get any better.

"Lady." For someone who only knows them for a couple of songs or so, "Lady" is one of those perfect hit songs from the late 70's that my 6 or 7 year old self loved. My attempt-at-being-cool self as a teenager and early 20's "serious music listener" attempted to deny its greatness, but then I just let that stuff go. It's a great song. I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.

Need to check out their debut single from 1976, "It's A Long Way There", a harder rock tune. Be sure to check the album version of the song to get the full instrumentation. While "Reminiscing" is a great, great song, it is probably one of the most "easy listening" type songs they ever did.

The Miller band referred to was probably the Glenn Miller Band. This was in the 70’s, so an older couple reminiscing would have been harkening back to the 1940’s and the Glenn Miller big band music. Plus, right at that moment in the song, there’s a background orchestration which would also give a Glenn Miller vibe. Great song. And the Glenn Miller vibe also rocks. Check out “In the Mood,” his number one hit.

These guys just had hit after hit. I loved this song when it came out years ago, but it is really special now that my husband and i have been together for 45 years. We will often sit by a fire or walk and reminisce. In this song it was Glenn Miller who was during the Big Band Era. Little known fact. Along with AC/DC and the Bee Gees, the Little River Band was one of the first Australian groups to hit it big in the US, selling over 25 million records and scoring 13 American Top 40 hits. "Reminiscing" was their biggest, reaching #3. As alway fantastic review.

When Alex hears it more, he'll get into the song's emotion and concept, as the theme is largely universal for everyone. And we haven't even mentioned how great the band performed the song.

The first time I heard this song I was 18. I woke up to it as it played on my clock radio. I literally left a dream state while floating into this soundscape. Pure magic! Enchanting. One of my all time favorite songs not just because of the lovely melody, mood and musicality, but also because it's a peek into the romanticized love lives of people my parents' age. They danced to Glenn Miller and other big bands of the 40's and early 50's. Check out a swing dance class or performance...the music was MADE for dancing. Seattle had a massive swing dance revival in the 90's, not sure if it is anymore.

I marvel at the concept of the song and perfecting the lyrics so they all sound so good to say and hear in your ears, and how clear and fresh the instrumentation. That’s S all day long. I took a random trip once to Charlottesville VA, and as I walked down the main street I heard music, a band playing Little River Band music. I wandered over, and it WAS the LRB! That was nuts hearing them play this song at dusk in the easy wind down of the day, totally a treat. 🍧

You guys don't always have to be together on every song. That's the beauty of music, it hits some people in a certain way and others in other ways. It would be an easy playlist if everyone felt the exact same way about every song.

I had a jukebox as a kid and this is one of the songs we had on it. I don't think I cared much for it as a kid, but as I got older, I grew to appreciate it. I have even sung this a number of times for karaoke. Fantastic song.

I was 7 years old when this song came out and I can tell your for certain, it was my favorite song at the time. Can we bring back lush orchestration and trumpet solos? (And man, wouldn't it be nice to have another minute or so of that trumpet at the end?)

Been watching you guys since Andy was alone from his bedroom - which sounds so wrong- but tho I haven’t sent you any moolah, you have to go with blabla’s suggestion: It’s a Long Way There is LRB’s best song… more raw and rocky than their later poppy tunes. Don’t get me wrong, I love this song, Lonesome Loser, and especially Cool Change - but Long Way There is just great. Saw them live back in the late 70’s or ‘80, 7 guys, great players, incredible vocals (very much like the Hall & Oates late 70’s band - everybody sings!), and sad I saw them just once !

Funny comparison to Steely Dan! The band they referenced was the "Glenn Miller Orchestra", a big band from the late 30's. The lush reeds that follow the line "Glenn Miller's Band was better than before" are a nod to the sound of the group, and the trumpet solo at the end is also somewhat reminiscent. Check the video for "Glenn Miller - In the Mood".

Others have said this, but I hope that with multiple comments you guys are more likely to see it. You must cover “It’s a Long Way There”. But be sure you get the 9 minute long version vs the 4 minute Greatest Hits version.
