Amazing song: it's rare that songs of such length have no dull moment; I assume largely because of Ric Formosa's influence who studied arrangement and orchestration at musical conservatory. Performance wise: Ric's playing in the studio version is more exciting than in this live version.
@@nascarpj That indeed is the case. He had only been in Australia for a few years and did not want to tour internationally as he was working on several other musical projects at the time.

I’m not sure how you could’ve seen the LRB in Virginia Beach in the early 70’s. This is the original lineup with Roger McLachlan Bass, and Ric Formosa Lead Gtr which formed in early 1975. The Mk2 version never got to USA until late 1976

Such good sound and picture quality from 1975 and didn't know GTK was still broadcasting on TV thought that finished in 1974 because wasn't countdown the replacement for GTK
What a gem! One of the greatest Australian songs from one of the greatest Australian albums performed live by the classic line up of one the greatest Australian bands. The song and the original recording is one of the greatest pieces of music ever created. It is literally a great work of Art. Like that other famous musical group we have all heard of, the whole of the classic Little River Band was greater than its individual parts.Thanks Roger.
@@SMC01ful Aww c'mon @SMC01ful, Glenn and Derek were born in England, Beeb was born in The Netherlands, Ric was born in Italy and grew up in Canada, and of course Roger was born in New Zealand. Only Graeham was born in Australia. But LRB was formed in Australia ... and that's why we happliy claim it as being an Australian band.
I bought a CD of TLRB at a yard sale, didn’t know anything about the band, played it a lot & this is my favorite song on the album. The end of the song I imagine The California Zephyr as it throttles back to pull into San Francisco from Chicago, yea I rode that train once.
Something you just see in the Australian music industry these days in that all these musicians where well grounded in previous bands and performing for in some cases many years before LRB. Today bands/musicians just don't have overall venues and environment to play and nurture songs and sounds. I am so lucky to have lived in the 60's 70's Australian music scene, we were spoilt for talent and great songs.
This is why I love you tube! What a gem this is! LRB are one of my favourite bands, the music has enriched my life and I never get sick of listening to them!
One of the most amazing guitar performances of all time!. One the most forgotten gems of classic rock. I will never get tired of listening to Formosa's fabulous riffs...
@@rayjr62 Ric might have used a Telecaster on the album version. Beeb was the one who used SG's more than anything, so they all may have been his guitars in this clip.
@@HoratioFitzbastardof course mate…..but doesn’t change the fact that Ric and Graeham are playing right handed SG’s. I guess Beeb just had a couple of spare RH SG’s did he? 🤬
What a joy to hear a genuine live version of this classic. Although the recorded version was mostly live in the studio, this is just raw without the production polish. Ric managed to get 90% of the lead licks in there as well. Just awesome!
Love this, Rog! I saw you guy at Latrobe uni with THIS classic line-up. Loved you on bass and Ric Formosa on lead. I'd forgotten that GTK went until 1975!
Thanks for posting this Roger. Huge fan and of course have every single LRB album. Spoke to Beeb here in Nashville not too long ago and had a decent long email conversations with Graeham about vocal production. Both great humble and talented gentlemen.
LRB is one of my favorite Australian Bands. But when I googled the top Autralian 100 albums of all time, not one of their albums are included. How can it be? I think it's not fair coz they are more popular in the U.S. than some bands that are mentioned. A fan from the Philippines.
@@RJRKM Now I see, thanks for the info. Anyway, their song "Cool Change" is one of Australia's popular songs of all time. I really dig the original line up until the released of their album "Double Exposure". "Backstage Pass" is one of my favorite live albums. Thanks again Roger for waking me about the music scene in your country. Appreciate it!
G’day Rodger! Great stuff!! Used to work with you at BHM Blackburn. Hope you are well, never got to say bye! So sorry!🙏❤️🇦🇺🙏👍😃🎸🎸🎸🤟✌️Love this band, love this song! So did my late father!🙏
Fantastic live performance, love the original lineup and saw these guys in this configuration countless times. Ric’s guitar playing like no other in the day!
LRB was and is SO under appreciated. They never get the credit for really fantastic songs. Don Henley stated that he believed that no one at the time had better harmonies. High level praise from a guy who started a band that might be considered the second best band re harmonies. Mr. Henley said they were better than The Beach Boys. Mighty strong statement. I’d never go see LRB today. No original band members. Sometimes, the big three go out on their own. Can’t use the LRB name. What does Glenn say? We are not LRB, but we sure as hell sound like them. 😂
I don't know why you would say that Peter. The original LRB were and still are very appreciated by fans all over the world. Sold millions of records and received multiple awards and credits for their body of songs.
@@RJRKM literally just my opinion. I worked with Supertramp, Roger Hodgson, and Yes for a number of years. Nothing major. Just merchandising and back stage passes. I know a ton of LRB fans who will never go see the new band. I appreciate your comment. I don’t often get a nice comment.
I’ve got a copy of that poster of the band that came in a special promo copy of “After Hours” with a business card included from Glenn Wheatley of “Tumbleweed Music” that he used to run back then. This was the best that the band ever sounded. I hope that Graeham Goble is doing well. He told me he had Covid recently and about a week later I caught it too.
What a great song/jam!!! Couldn't help but notice all the Gibsons. Love Ric Formosa's playing...Magic Fingers...wish he'd played The Strat. Just a little more colour and nuance. Thanks for putting this up. A great pleasure.
@@RJRKM ... Just to say loved the bass playing also, and the satorial elegance. The Seventies fashion for clothes, hair and shirts undone to the navel. Superb. Cheers.

@@robmurray9825 Ah I now see where you're coming from. The Gibson SG vibe. I think it's just a fluke that everyone is playing a Gibson on this clip. Some of the other clips recorded during this session the guys were playing Strats. In fact on the original studio recording of "It's A Long Way There" Beeb and Ric are playing Strats.
I don't think LRB influenced Angus with the guitars but I'm going out on a limb and say that the song title influenced bon Scott to name his song, it's a long way to the top! I'm pretty sure this was released first
Ric must have felt like strangling the cameraman and vision mixer, they seem to deliberately avoid him and focus only on picking. Unfortunately this happened a lot them and still happens. André in Sydney

Ric is alive and well living in Ballarat working from his fabulous home studio. He is responsible for a lot of the brass and string arrangements you hear on LRB recordings

I hate 70s production! Sure, we want to see the vocalist rather than Ric smoking what appears to be an SG. Can't really tell, though, because you only see it for 4 seconds spaced out over 8 minutes.
Ric Formosa is a phenomenal guitarist with his SG Gibson.
under rated band love all their music and the 70s and 80s
I never thought they were under rated. LRB had huge worldwide success
❤LOVE THIS SONG.... LOVE THIS BAND❤️
best song they ever did because of ric formosa,s great lead guitaring

Thanks Jack. A song very dear to my heart.
