Oh my! I always loved “Little River Band”. I had a cassette tape or two of their music. Heck, those tapes may even be in this house somewhere. Maybe the attic, Hmmmm! Now, I’m thinking. Where are those old cassettes?

“Lady” is a classic!

I had their live album, played the heck out of it. That guitar solo on “It’s A Long Way There” is smokin’.

I don’t think LRB was underrated at all. They sold many millions of records and topped the charts several times.

Good one

Take it easy on me

Happy Anniversary

Several good ones but there was one the local radio station ran into the ground

"Take It Easy On Me" is my LRB favorite but they had a lot of great tunes.

Little River Band is seeing a big resurgence in the Yacht Rock craze. I believe Sirius/XM now has three Yacht Rock stations.

This is a great tune they did live with the symphony orchestra

Saw them in concert in El Paso 30+ years ago. Their opening act was Poco.

Great concert!

Not underrated by me. I still listen to them.

“I had their live album, played the heck out of it. That guitar solo on “It’s A Long Way There” is smokin’.”

Oh, that is a good one! I think the band was just over-shadowed by the bands they opened for. Another good band was “Wet Willie”. I think they might have toured with the Allman Brother’s band some. They were overlooked. I saw them play somewhere at some point in the 70’s. Can’t remember when, where, or who was the main act. LOL!

Reminiscing… a timeless classic.

Light of day. An exquisite piece of light jazz

“Lonesome Loser”—probably a song about Liz Cheney.

Back in the days before marriage and A/C, that cassette was one that I would put on, lay back with a cool drink and a pretty lady, and chill in the dark.
