Occasionally you hear a track from a group you thought you knew but it sounds very different from what you expected. My impression of this band was formed by their big 1978 hit, which you may recall: "Reminiscing".

Little River Band 'It's a Long Way There' is actually the opening track off their 1975 debut album and their hallmark three-part harmonies sung by Glenn Shorrock, Graeham Goble and Beeb Birtles are clear to hear. Although the CS&N parallels are unmistakable the guitar solo by Ric Formosa takes the song somewhere unexpected...
The video is all Australian (and slightly bizarre) with concert clips and film footage of "Have a Go Australia", 8mm film of Sydney Harbour, "C'mon Aussie C'mon" and the 1975 Bathurst 1000 (touring car race), plus the guitar solo at around 5 minutes becomes a spot the cricketer quiz for you ?

➤ I've read that along with AC/DC and the Bee Gees, the Little River Band were 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. They are less well known in Europe. 

Interesting that these groups are referred to as Australian - all about the origin of the group I guess. Because the main members of AC/DC emigrated from Scotland while the Bee Gee brothers were born on the Isle of Man and only actually lived in Australia for a little over 8 years.
