    in 1980, Eagles founding member, the late Glenn Frey, dubbed the Australian pop group “the best singing band in the world.” Glenn toured with them a while, and I think LRB was the Eagles opening act for a while... until LRB got as big (or bigger) then the Eagles. Glad you didn't react to the short (radio) version of this song! Thanks for posting!

      Calder Raceway, just outside Melbourne 1977
      Huge band concert - Santana, Little River Band, Fleetwood Mac, & other bands.
      Mac was the big one. But they kept everyone waiting, were an hour late and in the end were too stoned to play. The Melbourne crowd booed them mercilessly. The Little River Band stole the show with everyone singing Help Is On It's Way.

    This was the song that Glenn Wheatley, the bands manager, took to the record executives to try and break the band into America. The execs hated it(too long, bands are dead, it all disco now, etc - this was 1975 remember!), but the public loved it and the rest is history as they say.

    @ TRE: Excellent band from Australia. TEN Top 20 singles in the States from 78-83. Brilliant songs but they didn't show off the band's rock chops. So most people here know them only as a sophisticated pop band.

    Tre Narcisse, This was the song that Glenn Wheatley took to the US record executives to try and break the band into the USA. Listen to the words, the song is about this exact thing - being on the road trying to break it big.
    The execs hated this song, citing examples of "bands are dead, it's all solo artists now like eric Clapton" or "We can't sell this, it's all disco music now"
    For context, this was 1975, just as disco exploded and bands like The Eagles were in decline in their eyes. so it was a hard sell that failed at first (this shows just how much those execs didn't know, writing off the Eagles and this band in the same breath).
    They still broke the USA in spite of the execs opinions, and this song was chosen for that job because it showcased the full range of the band's talents, hence it's 8 minute runtime(a BIG no-no in the 70's was to have a song ran longer than about 4 minutes - funny that this one and "American pie" by Don Maclean are 2 of the best known 70's compositions, both being over 8 minutes long :-) ) .

    I know, right? You expect to walk into a Holiday Inn bar and see The Little River Band there. The guitar work on this, and their song "The Night Owl" are both spectacular. Many of their songs are fine, but those two stand out. You hear them and you think, "where the hell did THAT come from"?
    At about 5:27 .....uh-oh....here it comes!
