Yay this is a great band! I listen to their greatest hits all the time!!! 🎉 You are all smiles from the beginning! I love Southern Nights!!!! ❤❤❤ When they say "Miller's band was better than before." Then the horns come in (they are talking about Glen Miller's band). He has a great voice. Their harmonies are great Shows more in their other songs... Reminds me of my grandma's house so must have heard it there when I was a kid. I am a sucker for bands with a horn section. Guess what bands I like... I am surprised you have not heard that - that plays a lot!!! I did a karaoke duet of Lonesome Loser (one of their songs) with a friend once. Glad to see you in the video, Ty. Happy New Year all and many blessings in 2024!

Very cool song!
I think it was Glenn Frey that once said that this is the only band whose harmonies The Eagles were jealous of. That is quite a compliment right there.

When Eagles and Little River Band toured together, each of the bands would stand outside the other's green room and listen to them warm up and say "Now that's how it's done!" Great mutual respect! Glenn Frey toured with LRB during his solo stretch too!

I’ve heard a comparison of this song to a Steely Dan if they weren’t so jaded. I’m not sure many people rival the harmonies of Steely Dan. As they say, Steely Dan is your favorite band’s favorite band.
"Cool Change" is my favorite. I catch my husband singing "Lonesome Loser" a lot around the house. I can't imagine anyone not liking this band.

Would love to hear your reaction to Little River Band - it's a long way there. What a masterpiece of music talent. Love the best music ever between 60s -80s. Will probably never hear this type of music & talent again at least in how it was played w/o a lot of computer enhancements. Just pure talent! Love your music reactions & for sharing the oldies. Priceless! 🙂 Makes my day! ❤

So right - if you haven’t already check out Little Ray Of Sunshine - Glenn recorded it with Axiom before he joined LRB. Written by Brian Cadd, I think. Great song
Little River Band's harmonies don't take a backseat to anyone else.
They have so many great songs. Glad you all really liked them. Hope you do "Lonesome Loser" next.

The Little River Band is a *sleeper.* They had such funky, jazzy, yet folksy feel to it.
They were a rare act. Always brimming with creativity. No one song is like another. "Cool Change" , "It's Not A Wonder", "Lady" to "It's A Long Way There" - crazy range. Very, very special band. We were so damn lucky to grow up with music like this.
Glen Shorrock has such a great voice, and LRB has so many wonderful songs! Try Cool Change, Lonesome Loser and Lady. They are ALL fantastic!
“Lonesome Loser” and “Cool Change” are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I am an aussie we are so proud of our band, they have so many great hits, so great!
Glenn Shorrock’s voice is literally Kerrygold. LRB has so many great yacht-rock songs. As much as I love hard rock, I am a sucker for this band. And they can ALL sing. I think Take It Easy On Me is a great one because it gives you a taste of the talent that runs through the band. Wayne Nelson has a fantastic solo part in that one. But you can just close your eyes and point to one of their songs and chances are it will be fantastic. I don’t think you could have chosen a better final song for 2023. Happy New Year, Nick, Ty and Ryan.
Reminiscing, John Lennons favorite song and one of my ten best ever, headphones candy.
It's A Long Way There (extended version). This song shows them at their best

I was 7 or 8 when this song came out -- this is the kind of stuff I grew up on. And people wonder why my generation rags so much on today's music. There's just no comparison.
If you listen to the line “That’s the way it began, we were hand in hand, Glenn Miller band was better than before”, it is a reference to the Glenn Miller Band - a swing band from the 1930s-40s and they were wildly popular with songs like “In the mood”, “String of pearls” and “Pennsylvania 6-5000”. The saxophone riff right after this line is an homage to that sound.

Aussie in Thailand here. My British friend runs a live music pub in Bangkok - he was a teacher of fine musicians in the UK I gave him LRB Best of CD years ago and he played it everyday for 9 months at least.
Love this song. I feel 19 again listening to this. The 70s ruled. The music, the parties, the dope, the vibe, everything.

"Smooth" is the definitely the correct word to use with this tune. LRB has a ton of great stuff.
Yessiree--it was great to see THREE heads boppin' along together again!
LRB is great at harmonizing! Check out " Lonesome Loser" and "It's A Long Way There" to name a couple. Good to see you Ty! 😊
😂 The 3 Amigos are back 👏👏👏
It's been said that Frank Sinatra called Reminiscing "the best song written in the 1970's. He's also reported to have said he didn't cover it because he couldn't do the lead vocal justice. It's also true that John Lennon said Reminiscing was he and Yoko's favorite.

" It's also true that John Lennon said Reminiscing was he and Yoko's favorite." That is not true. It was May Pang that said it was her and John's favorite song during their 18-month fling however the dates don't jibe wih her story.
“Lady” is probably my favorite from these guys.
Hey Ty, good to see you back for a visit! Please guys, on that live stream when Ty told us he was leaving for his promotion, I requested Bee Gees, official video for "Too Much Heaven", would you consider checking it out before Ty leaves again?
13 year old me blasting this on my Walkman all summer long of 1982. My early teens was pure "eclectic" because our only English speaking FM radio station was the Armed Forces Network and the music, outside of Casey Kasem's Top 40 every Sunday afternoon changed genre's hourly. This song has been in my life since I purchased this album that summer and will remain until my dying breath...
YES! Love them! I still have their Greatest Hits Cassette..Cool Change is my favorite! Talk about smooth!
LRB is one of my favorites. Its a long way there is a masterpiece. I would also recommend the band firefall , strange way or just remember I love you.
This was played on the R&B radio in Savannah, GA when it came out. Beautiful song.
I was wonderin' if Ty would be back in town for the holidays...and--from the photo--it looks like that's the case! Looking forward to tonight's reaction; if we were placing bets, I'd say this song will end up on all of your playlists.
LRB is a rabbit hole you need to go down. The album version of it's a long way there will blow your minds!!!
Take it easy on me Lonesome loser Cool Change All of these are amazing
YAYYYYYYY, Ty is back!!! (weird for a grown man to care but he has a lot of charm and is the middle-man with a good voice). Each of you brings something different so there would be an emptiness if any of you were missing.
Lonesome Loser and Cool Change are just listens by this band.
Glenn Frey apparently said LRB was the best singing band in the world.
Southern nights from Glenn Campbell came first in 1977
I really love watching you guys that are younger than me and a whole bunch of the other reaction channels, discovering music, the way it used to be without the computers without the auto tune, and just people with incredibly good songwriting incredibly good musical arrangement, and incredibly good engineers, putting it all together so much effort used to go into it in Music today has become disposable because technology has just made it to EZ. It’s so fun to watch people like you guys react to the stuff as you’re discovering it. It seems like music has lost some of that magic because of technology. We’ve traded the soul of music for the convenience of it.
The very definition of a an all time Classic! We grew up with this music! 🙀
I think part of the reason why you guys also loved the song is all three of you are so happy to be hanging out again.
The Eagles said that LRB was one of the best harmony bands they had ever heard.
England Dan and John Ford Coley is another group that helped shape my musical interests. "I'd really love to see you tonight"
Top 2 Yacht Rock Essential reactions 1) Dobie Gray- Drift Away 2) Ozark Mountain Daredevils - Jackie Blue Great to see Tye!
Good to see you, Ty. Nick and Ryan have been holding down the fort very well. Happy New Year, guys. Wishing you the best for the coming year.
They have some absolute pearlers. Lady. It's A Long Way There.
LRB have a ton of hits. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, LADY, IT'S A LONG WAY THERE.. and many others. Good to see TY again. Happy New Year fellas!
Great band from Australia! Started listening to them in 1978! Check out Lonesome Loser, Take It Easy On Me, Night Owls, Cool Change, and more! Glenn Shorrock is the lead vocalist here, overall a great band with great harmonies!
This one and LADY are my favorites by LRB !
Every decade of the modern era of music since the 20s is incredible and has its own unique qualities to add to it's history. But as far as I'm concerned, the late 60s to the early 90s is the greatest span in the history of music that I've ever heard.
I know this song was not written about them but for some reason when I hear this song what comes to my mind courting days of George and Mary Bailey. It’s a wonderful life…it’s a wonderful song.
There was never a more perfect song than this right here ✌️
Oh, at last! "Reminiscing" was considered a huge commercial success and many people from my generation made this their personal anthem. I can't wait to see each face when you're hearing the rest (any of them) of LRB's artistry!!!!!!! The vocal arrangements that they put together are probably some of the best that I've ever heard. And, they can evoke some real emotions. So glad that y'all did this one.
Pick any of their many hits and all are great! "Cool Change", "Night Owls", "Lady", "Help Is On It's Way", "Take It Easy On Me" and "Lonesome Loser".

Growing up in the 70’s was the best - so much diverse music.
Great reaction guys - you've just got to do "It's A Long Way There (Remastered 2022)". It's the 8:42 min (extended) album version featuring the not to be missed epic guitar solo!

Of their softer songs, this is the best. I first started listening to them when "It's A Long Way There" was popular on AOR radio. Hope you guys react to that one also.
Is standard cruising song with your Honey When you're just feeling mellow.. Which back then wasn't a lot but this was standard.The whole album was good and then you need to listen to Cool Change.
Try It's a long way there. Love this song with all the different instruments & talent. Love this band up there with Boston & Styx. Thanks for sharing the oldies & commenting! You guys are the best!😂
Good seeing Ty back again. You guys are the best.
This music from the 70s did such a great job of painting pictures while telling stories. So much killer atmosphere created without computers or auto tune. You should check out Nightwish Ghost Love Score from Wacken ….. you will be blown away….

Welcome back Ty,little river band is awesome, you should do California by Manfed Mann's Earth Band,it's one of the greatest songs ever written and performed!
fun fact- some guy by the name of john lennon or something said it was always on rotation at his house. one of his favourite songs ever.
I had Sleeper Catcher when I was in High School. Great album, great band. Their production was faultless.
Happy Anniversary is my favorite. The bass kicks ass!!
LRB has a lot of great songs but one of my favorites is "Happy Anniversary" which is written to an ex-wife. It has great harmonies and the funkiest bass part you'll ever hear.
If you liked this, you will absolutely love "It's A Long Way There" - long version, it's their masterpiece.... very under rated band
LRB the original, had so many great songs and were known for their outstanding harmonies. "Lonesome Loser", "The Night Owls", and "Cool Change" among many great ones.
"And the Porter tune/ made us dance across the room".... Cole Porter's "Night & Day " (from the 1932 Fred Astaire Broadway musical & later movie "Gay Divorce")
I was wondering where Ty was! So good to see him again. Wishing all three of you guys a wonderful 2024.
Real music and musicians!!
My top three favorite bands of all time.
Nick and Ryan are doing a great job, but is a treat to see you three together 😉 Happy New Year guys , all the best for 2024 🎇
Nice to see ya'll back together! 😊
So glad to see all three of you together again! Yes, this is an awesome tune.
Great reaction guys. Midnight Sky list! Glenn's lead vocal here is FAB and the Little River Band is known for its gorgeous harmonies and instrumentals. Loved this back in the day and love it now. TIMELESS.
This one’s been on my playlist. You can’t help but bob your head to it. And what a great way to end the year.🎉
You will love it, if you don't already. This and Ambrosia's How Much I Feel were both released in the summer of '78 and so for me they the 'Romantic Twins' of that year.
LRB is so underrated and yet so amazing. Glenn Shorack era the best. Incredible catelogue, can't go wrong. Check out Lady, my fav.
Should do their song Lady sometime
My boy back in town ! Love u son ! Proud of you
Such a beautifully romantic song. Such smooth and joyful lyrics. Mood elevation 101. Fantastic.
LRB owned VANCOUVER CANADA in the late seventies and early eighties. They SOLD OUT numerous stadium shows. Good to reminisce !
those are real musicians guys! i have everything they ever did!
