As a concert junkie since a kid in the 70s always been sorry I never got to catch them in all of their eclectic glory! I'll still put Cool Change on repeat & just let it play over & over to this day!

      Sadly, most bands in today's music rely on autotune.

    Frey once called Little River Band the "greatest harmony band in the world". Now...he was probably referring to a slightly earlier version than this....perhaps circa 1975 -1983 ish....but some of the same guys are here...and it's still a great sound!!

    Great to see the band in the late 80’s and nice to see Glenn Frey on stage. He was apparently quite fond of LRB and was even quoted as saying “they are the best singing band in the world”.
    Btw, if you buy the 20th Anniversary G/H cd, there’s a live version of “Lyin Eyes” & “Take it Easy” from this concert where Glenn sings lead and LRB sings the harmonies.

It only sold 50,000 copies. Someone actually posted that song on YT. We modeled ourselves after you guys, 5 part harmony, a very tight vocal band, with really good players.We were actually known for our Moody Blues show we used to do.

    M wife and I and 2 friends were at Expo. We had sat down on the grass to eat tea when this concert started. FANTASTIC. What a true legendary band. Sad that its just a cover band now though.
    And yes, Frey did say LRB were the best vocal band in the world. I remember the first song Shorrock was off key and Frey looked at him and just raised his hand up quickly and Shorrock pitched perfectly.
    I took my 2 sons to see Glenn, Beeb and yourself Graeham perform in the Civic Centre in Shepperton Victoria. We were having Chinese at the restaurant in the park across from the venue. You guys (all the band) were at a table by yourselves and we were at the only other occupied table in the place. My sons went over and got all your autographs and talked with you all while Glenn came and sat with me and chatted away. Great stuff. Thank you for all your wonderful music. You coloured my families life with your God given gift.
