"Diamantina Cocktail" is BY FAR, one of the BEST albums of the 70s. REAL Music. REAL talent.

One of the Greatest bands that ever walked the Planet.!🌹

Glenn Shorrock has such a great, soulful voice. Birtles and Goble harmonizing with him is such greatness. They are 3 great vocalist. And great songwriters.

To this day, Long Way There STILL gives me goosebumps when I listen to it. 'Tis truly a rock and roll masterpiece.

Possibly the most underrated group of the time.

Ric Formosa was the shit on that guitar. Love his vamps on this. The studio version is one of my fave songs.

To me one of the best bands ever. This song is a masterpiece and Ric Formosa Is just phenomenal OMG how much I'd like to go back to 1975 ...

One of the best live bands ever.

Christ, Glenn has such a great voice and the harmonies on this song is just kickass!

I remember seeing this live at the village green hotel. Rick Formosa absolutely nailed it on guitar. It was mesmerising. Best Australian band ever.

masterpiece of camera misdirection - whenever there's a lead break by Ric Formosa the camera heads off to one of the two rhythm guitarists

I first saw them in 75 when they supported Deep Purple in Festival hall, then when I was a Computer operator in 1976/7 and working shift work in South Melbourne. One night , maybe 2 am, we went to Silver Top Taxi's Cafe, just up the road from Armstrong Studios and they were there getting burgers. They were recording After Hours (I think) and we had a chat. They such a great musical genealogy before before becoming LRB. They were one of the best bands out of Australia

I saw them at the Stanley Theater in Pittsburgh, PA in January of 1979. Glen did band intros in the middle of this and with the solos it seemed the entire song took fifteen minutes. Ambrosia opened the show.

That was an awesome performance! My favorite LRB song!

This song hooked me in 75 and I bought many of their albums.

I met Beebs at a little party in Nashville. We took him down to the stereo room in the basement and played this for him. He did not know we knew who he was. Much fun. We stood there in shock.

What a fantastic live performance. Love t!

I've watched this several times since finding it on YT. The playing and vocals are just superb. I'm glad to have grown up in an era that produced this calibre of music.

Can't believe this track goes back so far. Still kickass

Rare video with Ric Formosa, the original and best lead guitarist on this tune.

I've never seen this one live. One of my all time favorites!

Thanks for posting love this song. Saw them at the Sydney Opera House along with Marcia Hines. Dec 1975. Was a 21st birthday present from my sister..Blew me away. Thanks again for the memories.

They were so,so so good. Pre internet Australia had some REALLY grotty roadhouses and I’ll bet these blokes have seen em all lol

This is a masterpiece

I adore this Aussie group, they were big but should have been alot bigger, the musical dexterity and harmonies.. Jeez

I am sure glad I ran across that!! Super song!! And super line up. Pretty much the original group. Thank u for posting!! Love these guys.

Harmony heaven, great way to start my morning!

Awesome LRB🎸《☆》This song was getting as much airplay as any of the SKYNYRD Hits were getting in 75-77 in Jacksonville Florida. It's a shame many people don't remember this song or never heard it to begin with✌️😎☮️

Will never understand why Rick Formosa(lead Guitar) and Roger McLaughlin(Bass) left - this song defines LRB IMHO

The Original and the Best.

A wall of SG guitars. Good to see Beeb could found find a lefty back in the day.They were a rare bird!

My favorite LRB song by a country mile, and they had a few good un's too.

I Have Been Kicking back for decades cranking your music Up here in the N.Y. Mountains ..... WE ALL LOVE YOUR MUSIC : )

The best record of this song ever

Just a shame that the lead guitar's talent wasn't adequately shown in this video.

I can't believe this came out in 1975. I thought it was much later. I was in primary school in grade 6 at the time. Truly one of Australia's best ;)

Absolutelynbrilliant. Major talent. This song is on my all time favorite list for sure. Seen them twice

Fantastic band glen shorrock is a fantastic musician I love their music

The director should be fired. Formosa is ripping and they’re focused on Beeb’s rhythm among others

This song always brings me 'home' ❤

Great song, but have the lead guitarist and the cameraman had a row? We hardly see the guitarist through one of the longest lead breaks ever!

My favorite band probably ever.....❤️

takes me back to good time i wish we could relive

This song has such a CSN&Y sound to it.

One of my all time favorite songs! Ric Formosa was amazing on the lead guitar. Wondering what he is doing these days.

The 70s 80s were Magical 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Outstanding performance. Rivals the studio recording.

Absolutely SHOCKING photography...who wants to see full face Glen Shorrock's nose? Why not some shots of the whole band? Ditto for Woodstock. The screen in 4 sections. All I saw was Joe Cocker's pimples. I walked out. How do these camera guys get gigs? Rick Formosa in this very rare footage is a legend but we never see any shots of him. Rarely dom we see the 8 minute version of this live with Rick.

One of my favourite all-time bands! Vocally the best ever! Years ago, I saw LRB at the Christchurch Town Hall and met 3 of you when you visited Musical Specialists where Bob "The Oz" Mould worked on Colombo Street. The guitar solo on this song is one of the best ever - unlike the other shredders and pretenders who think they're guitarists!!

Fabulous track by a really great band. Lucky to see them once a few years back.

Greatest band EVER!!

Fantastic! Thanks so much for this. This one is the version they'll play when i'll go.

This has be the Highest the band has ever been.

Ahhhhh this is such a masterpiece👌✨

Dang this song is hard to sing. They sure nail it though. Thanks for posting.

"Anybody here familiar with the uploader "Real Music Observer"? His name is David J. Spuria and for years he was putting out videos hating on the original members of LRB - describing them as "losers" for the name debacle and "nothing special" in regards to their vocal and musical ability. He also made childish jibes about their names and historical significance, He was on the receiving end of some free cds and concert tickets from Wayne Nelson of the current "fake" line-up and subsequently praised the current line-up as "just as talented" as the originals and as heroes for continuing legacy. Fast forward three years and "Real Music Observer" has a change of heart and posts a video calling for the originals to be inducted into the HOF - Graeme Goble sees this video and thanks him for the video and agrees to an interview with David J Spuria (now uploaded). Now I'm pretty sure that Graeme would have had no idea of the opinions that Mr Spuria had expressed about LRB foe some years and Mr Spuria, realising that Graeme might see some of that content quickly removed about a dozen videos before he could be exposed for the two-faced phoney that he is. Spuria's "Real Music Observer" is nothing more than a long-winded nobody posting opinions about classic rock - with comments closed because he doesn't want to hear opposing opinion. He claims to have been a DJ at a radio station in the 80s and 90s and when I posted an email from that station saying that he was never employed by them he shut the comments down on his video for the first and final time. Mr Spuria hasn't worked for 15 years and it has been his plan to survive and support his family by doing these videos from home. His income is small and sporadic and he relies on his wife working full time to make ends meet. You would think 15 years is more than enough time to realise that he should just go and get a job and keep the videos as a hobby. Living in the richest nation on earth and begging for $1 on Patreon is a very bad look" *Nobody attacked his family or his son with "special needs" as he describes him, as he claims. He is lying and is making excuses for his poor behaviour in his videos - nobody even knew he had a wife or 3 year old child (at the time) until he claimed that his family was being attacked. He wasn't able to produce one email or comment that backed his claims. He then went on to make claims that he was suing individuals and had a "legal team" working on it.

In the conversation for greatest Aussie song of all time

One of my favorite bands of all time

Thats some SG power right there

Oh boy - seriously great!

This is simply outstanding!

Love these guys ❤️lovin this today ❤️4/30/21

BEST SONG ever!!!

God I miss this band.

' 62 SG's and MXR Phase 90's; Don't leave OZ without 'em!

They could go on a nd on with this forever as far as im concerned

lead guitar the best..no focus on him...what the hell was the cameraman doin? geez

What a great live performance.

Sadly, their first album has not been reissued on CD for quite a number of years. There needs to be a reissue of that album. BGO records, how about it?

A favorite guitar solo of mine!

Fantastic song and great to see this GTK performance exists too! Thanks for sharing!

Speechless with wonder !

Sin comentarios... Solo escucho está buena música!

We need more rock stars named Beeb.

Greatest

I have just linked my 2 favorite Aussie bands within the imagery of this video... sacred G shit

LIVE. LIVE. I was beginning to get pissed until at 4:00 or so they finally showed the work of the lead guitarist...

The greatest band ever

Always Loved this Song Yall Cranked the Hell Out of that ..the Type of Song that'll Give You a 2nd Wind

@3.34 Cool as you like! Love everything about this track. So grateful to my brother for hooking me up with this a few weeks ago. Cheers for posting this video. It's a brilliant and seriously cool performance 😎✌️

🥀Amazing Performance Guy's Thank's for posting this video it's priceless and unbelievable🥀✌

They match it with any live band

One on my favs. The guitar solo on this was out of the pocket for most of it. Just noodling. Still cool to find a full live version of a great song.

Nice song . . .

Somehow this song came up as a song I would like on Spotify and it is awesome! I think I'll be checking out all the music of the Little River Band. I don't know how I missed this in my misspent youth! Thank you!!

This Song Reminds Me Of Friend's Aunt, Her Name Was Vanessa Hackney Who Pass Away 5 Yrs Ago. R.I.P Vanessa

Class is class Simply awesome

Rick Formosa.....marvelous player!

Classic

The best album was the Adelaide festival theatre in, was it 76? Completely amazing

Love it

Another great LRB song! I always thought this tune had a CSNY vibe to it, anyone else think that too?

LRB is my guilty pleasure . . . So many quality songs. The fact that these gentlemen cannot tour as the Little River Band is a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of two mockeries of a sham.

This wasn't even dubbed like Top of the Pops style; it was all done live.

:) covid can't stop the music.!!

Is Beeb the one hitting the high note? It’s terrific. Love this version of “It’s A long Way There.”

Saw them in the 90'2 with my wife Jane. She got hammered and I had to carry her over my shoulder out of the Grizzly Rose. Jane was a model and the bar were definitely looking at her fine butt! Great concert in so many ways. One of my favorite bands while in the military

And that kid's is how it's Done. The real LRB

Interesting that this is the full album version not the radio "edit"

A fantastic version of the song - even better to see a band being allowed to actually play live on TV rather than the miming which many were pushed into. On a side note - I don't ever recall seeing Graeham without his glasses in a video before.
