Movie Reviews of Birtles Shorrock Goble - Full CircleMovie Review: More than a Little River Band Summary: 5 Stars
Once in awhile a DVD is released that just seems like a gift. This is one of them. It was enough of a magnet to pull one's attention to this reunion simply because it has been a long time since Birtles, Shorrock and Goble shared the stage. After the first few harmonized lines of "Full Circle", one realizes you are about to get more than just a nostalgia act.
Little River Band was never short on talent. The current LRB lineup with Wayne Nelson and Steve Housden is no exception. However, all it takes is a few bars of "It's A Long Way There" to start realizing you are hearing THE genuine article. BSG truly are the core of the Little River Band, and the three men responsible for composing its enduring catalog. Given the incredible performance, one can only hope they continue to make music together. Time has not diminished any quality of these three men. They display the perfect intonation that has been a standard of LRB since it's inception. BSG seem confident, at ease and they deliver the goods the entire performance. A special discovery is in store when witnessing guitarist Simon Hosford. This man is a worthy successor to David Briggs. He executes jaw-dropping, inspired licks that maintain the LRB arrangements and go a step beyond. In fact, what makes this live band so special is the ensemble playing. Each member contributes to the whole.
The DVD is nicely packaged with an extensive booklet, wonderful sound quality and a picturesque backdrop of the Forum Theatre in Melbourne. The track listing generously covers every phase of the LRB catalog. Of special note is the beautiful "Prelude In A Minor", which leads seamlessly into a haunting "Mistress Of Mine". Glenn Shorrock still has the charming stage presence that is a sort of hybrid of Joe Cocker and Phil Collins. His voice is as strong as ever.
All in all, a superb DVD that reminds us just how special BSG (LRB) was, is and will be. More please!!
