Little River Band-Little River Band

Original

This is the first record from this Australian Band. It came out in 1975 and I bought it then after hearing parts of “It’s A Long Way There” on an ad on the radio for the album. It’s the first and best song on the record, at over eight and a half minutes long, and features some three part harmony and some decent guitar work. The reggae inspired “Curiosity Killed The Cat” was also one I liked. Some of the other songs have their moments,”Emma ” is pretty catchy and “Meanwhile” is OK but the rest is what you would call soft rock. They had a couple big hits after this record, sometimes venturing into the dreaded Easy Listening territory. They still exist to this day with no original members.
