Little River Band

Little River Band is an Australian rock band that originated in Melbourne in 1975, taking its name from a road sign for the Victorian township of Little River, situated on the route to Geelong. The band was founded by Glenn Shorrock (formerly of The Twilights and Axiom), Graham Goble (from Mississippi), Beeb Birtles (who had played with Zoot and Mississippi), and Derek Pellicci (also an ex-member of Mississippi). Notably, Little River Band was the first Australian rock ensemble to achieve prolonged commercial success in the United States. Over the course of their career, they have sold over 25 million records and amassed 13 American Top 40 hits. As of now, there are no original founding members remaining in the group.

The lineup has evolved significantly since its inception, with notable members including Glenn Shorrock (lead vocals, 1975-82, 1987-95), Graham Goble (vocals, guitar, 1975-90), Beeb Birtles (guitar, vocals, 1975-83), and Derek Pellicci (drums, 1975-84, 1987-97). Other contributors have included Graham Davidge (lead guitar, 1976-81), John Farnham (lead vocals, 1982-86), and Wayne Nelson (bass, vocals, 1980-95, 1999-present), among many others.

Currently, the lineup consists of Wayne Nelson (vocals, bass), Rich Herring (lead guitar), Greg Hind (guitar, vocals), Chris Marion (keyboards, vocals), and Mel Watts (drums, vocals).

  • Records are packaged with a poly outer sleeve, the LP is placed in a fresh white inner sleeve directly after cleaning, (we include the accompanying sleeve, we send you both), separate from the cover to protect the seams during shipment, and of course, shipped within thick cardboard insert pads in a thick cardboard record mailer.

SRO Records Record Grading Guide:

SEALED/Mint:

Vinyl: Assumed mint, unverified until opened.

Sleeve: Visible through shrink wrap, graded as above.

NM (Near Mint):

Vinyl: Nearly flawless, with possible minor scuffs or hairlines only visible under strong light.
Sleeve: Appears new, as if freshly printed.

 

EX (Excellent):

Vinyl: Bright, with minor surface wear and hairlines, not affecting play.

Sleeve: May have faint creases or abrasions, but artwork is clean.

 

VG+ (Very Good Plus):

Vinyl: Obvious wear, scuffs and hairlines, plays with some noise but no major sound issues.

Sleeve: Worn with creases, noticeable wear, acid deterioration, corner dings, chipping, and possible seam wear.

 
Here's the typical SRO Records line in the sand. Anything below VG+, unless it's rare, unusual or just awesome, we're NOT going to sell online, much less go through the hassle of an ultrasonic cleaning, we're going to put it in one of many $10 Record boxes that we sell at Record Conventions and events. Some will wind up in the $1 Box, just to get it back out into the world for someone to enjoy or make a planter out of.

 

VG (Very Good):

Vinyl: Dull appearance with many hairlines and scuffs, somehow plays with persistent noise but no skips. 

Sleeve: Worn with possible seam splits and moderate ring wear.

G+ (Good Plus):

Vinyl: Numerous marks and scratches, plays with significant noise but music usually overpowers flaws.

Sleeve: Rough appearance with possible seam splits and water damage.


G (Good):

Vinyl: Copious unforgettable marks, probably a skip or jump.

Sleeve: Heavy ring wear and damage, likely large seam splits or water damage.


F (Fair):

Vinyl: It's round with nearly infinite damage, skipper gonna skip

Sleeve: It's basically what's left of the sleeve for the album

This only includes shipping to the International hub here in the United States.
