"Are the Beatles without any of the Fab 4 "The Beatles"
Would you listen to "The Eagles" without Glen or Don?
Mark is "Dire Strait"
Does "Rolling Stones" have Mick and Keith??????So....LRB without Glen, Beeb and Graham is Music Piracy..."

This is a tribute band.

"Fact 1-There is not one original founding member of Little River band in this tribute band.

Fact 2-This group's owner used court action to prevent the three original founding members,Beeb Birtles,Glen Shorrock and Graeme Goble from having the name. Just imagine if Lennon,MacCartney and Harrison had been denied the right to record as the Beatles.

Fact 3-Birtles,Goble and Shorrock wrote all the US Billboard top 40 hits of LRB. Just check the albums for their names.

Fact 4-This album from this tribute band does not sound anything like the original group.

This isn't about changing members as one poster(possibly from the group)claimed. This is about the originals being denied their name by these imposters who then had the gall to record with the name that they appropiated off the real members. Disgraceful conduct as are some of these dubious reviews. How could an album with not one original singer get such 5 star reviews unless the bands members voted a few times."

They may have the name.....

"but this is not the Little River Band. Comparing this group with the originals is like comparing Wings with the Beatles i.e Wings was an average band made competent by the uniqueness of McCartney....the Beatles were special. Draw the same comparison between the psuedo LRB and the real LRB....."
