Glenn Wheatley has played a pivotal role in the Australian contemporary music business, managing and promoting Australian artists locally and overseas including John Farnham, Little River Band, Australian Crawl, Ross Wilson, Pseudo Echo and Delta Goodrem.
In 1986, his record label Wheatley Records produced Farnham's album Whispering Jack, which remains Australia's highest selling album by a local artist. Delta Goodrem's debut album Innocent Eyes is Australia's second highest selling album by an Australian artist giving Glenn the honour of having produced the two highest selling Australian albums.
I was born in 2001 so this is definitely a bit before my time, but still one of my favorites. Simple enough to be catchy but still has a unique melody!
Man, randomly saw this on a list of the highest charting songs of 1997. Haven't heard it in a while. Someone should come up with a radio station that plays lost gems like this.
Lisa has a captivating stage presence largely as a result of her smile and lovely eyes. I have been overseas for ten years and it is great to find her here on RU-vid.
The original LRB is Shorrock , Birtles and Goble . The LRB of Wayne Nelson is just a tribute band. Sad how the original members got tricked on giving away the right of the LRB name
What was the name of the woman who owned the playroom? From memory, she was strict on playing times, would fine the band for going on late, or finishing too early. I keep thinking of the name Beryl, was that her name??????
I've just recorded a song from LRB - One of the most emotional songs of all time ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P1swT7a2umE.htmlsi=BA19qS5j2mRi5hzK
Brad's playing at the beginning of 'The Night' just sent me somewhere else! (And what a brilliant crossfade, they don't do them like that anymore! Camera man knew what he was doing!) It was so simple sounding - but could have opened any 90s rock/alternative song. I think he may have been ahead of his time... even some of Simon's playing carried that future quality.
Merril was a looker and gets most of the attention but, darn, Suzannah Espie had it all back then too! I like the song but for me the highlight is Cris Wilson’s backing vocal!
I remember my life when this song came out.Before marriage. Before divorce.Before getting financially destroyed for life in the divorce.Simpler times. Much happier times.
