 Get Ready to ROCK! Review of CD albums by melodic rock band Little River Band called Where We Started From and One ...
On a ballad like 'Just You And I' things could become somewhat saccharine and ever so boy band if they weren't careful, but the song has a twist in the bridge which is irresistible.
I always confused Little River Band with Little Feat, needless to say on this showing they bring to mind The Cars with the strong harmonies and jangly guitars, or contemporaries Orleans and Air Supply, and their brand of melodic pomp rock also puts them in Kansas, Styx and Toto territory at times.
